The default analyzer doesn't perform any stemming. You need to create
your own analyzer with a stemmer. Something like this;
require 'rubygems'
require 'ferret'
module Ferret::Analysis
class MyAnalyzer
def token_stream(field, text)
StemFilter.new(StandardTokenizer.new(text))
end
end
end
index = Ferret::I.new(:analyzer => Ferret::Analysis::MyAnalyzer.new)
index << "test"
index << "tests debate debater debating the for,"
puts index.search("test").total_hits
Hope that helps,
Dave
