I know, I know incrementing integers are the way God and Jesus want it, but sometimes life it just not that straightforward. I monkey patched a much new version of TS to take a different primary key for sphinx index id and it seem to work. I wonder if anyone wants, needs, or would like to actually finish this up for me. If not it will probably die with me as I'm the founder of a new startup, working 16 hour days and am not really that interested in making this some kind of 'thing' i do.
It allows you to do this: set_sphinx_primary_key "sphinx_id" and still do set_primary_key "blahbalh" for rails. I have some data that I need to get from various spots. I need it consistent and I don't trust them so MD5 hashes for keys it is. This obviously made sphinx puke. I am not sure my monkey patch is actually complete but it does work for a few of my models that have rather simple indexes. I think I still need to patch the associations part, but I will get to that when I need it. Anyway, just wanted to see if anyone is interested.
