Hi all, We just removed the Ultrasphinx plugin from Gitorious in the next branch. This plugin provides an interface to the Sphinx search engine used in Gitorious.
Since we still use the same search engine backend, there are no user-visible changes: all existing searches should still work like before Ultrasphinx was removed. However, if you maintain your own Gitorious server, you need to know that the ultrasphinx:* rake tasks have been replaced by similar tasks in the thinking_sphinx namespace. You probably have crontab entries and/or init scripts that reference these tasks, and these will need to be changed to keep working. The tasks you need to know about are: - `rake thinking_sphinx:configure` will generate a Sphinx configuration file that can be used by Sphinx. The resulting file will be generated as =config/$RAILS_ENV.sphinx.conf= (ie. =config/production.sphinx.conf= for production server) - `rake thinking_sphinx:index` will create/update your Sphinx index, based on the configuration file generated above - `rake thinking_sphinx:start` will start your Sphinx daemon - `rake thinking_sphinx:stop` will stop your Sphinx daemon The complete list of rake tasks along with a description follows: rake thinking_sphinx:configure # Generate the Sphinx configuration file using Thinking Sphinx's settings rake thinking_sphinx:index # Index data for Sphinx using Thinking Sphinx's settings rake thinking_sphinx:rebuild # Stop Sphinx (if it's running), rebuild the indexes, and start Sphinx rake thinking_sphinx:reindex # Reindex Sphinx without regenerating the configuration file rake thinking_sphinx:restart # Restart Sphinx rake thinking_sphinx:running_start # Stop if running, then start a Sphinx searchd daemon using Thinking Sphinx's settings rake thinking_sphinx:start # Start a Sphinx searchd daemon using Thinking Sphinx's settings rake thinking_sphinx:stop # Stop Sphinx using Thinking Sphinx's settings rake thinking_sphinx:version # Output the current Thinking Sphinx version Getting rid of Ultrasphinx was required to make Gitorious run under Rails 3, and the plugin replacing it also runs under most (if not all) Ruby versions.
