Hi Shane The latest version of TS (1.3.16) does support Rails 1.2.6 - so you should be okay upgrading to that. I'd install it as a plugin, as I'm not sure how good Rails' gem management is/was back then.
It's worth noting that I won't be supporting Rails 1.x moving forward... I think the current release is stable enough. The codebase is pretty complex already, and I'm working on Rails 3 support (although that will be a separate release, at least initially), so slimming things down a little would be nice, from a maintenance perspective. As for general upgrading advice, I think you should be okay to just jump from 1.2.3 to 1.2.6 - but it's been a long time since I worked with that version of Rails properly, so who knows. Perhaps get it all done in a branch, then merge it in once you're sure it's working as expected? -- Pat On 22/05/2010, at 8:00 AM, shane wrote: > Hi > > I thought I read somewhere that the Thinking Sphinx plugin maintained > compatibility with Rails 1.2.6 ?? > > Anyways, just wanting some info/suggestions on what I could do: > > I have a Rails app running on 1.2.3 .... which I could move to 1.2.6 > without issue if I recall correctly that they were just bug fix and > security patches. > > It's using the Thinking Sphinx plugin 0.9.8 according to it's gemspec. > > I am wanting to upgrade this, primarily to get access to the > ThinkingSphinx::Test module so I can add some tests around the search > code they have .... as I then have to modify it. > > Is anyone able to give me some advice on the best path I could take? > > Thanks > Shane > > -- > You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups > "Thinking Sphinx" group. > To post to this group, send email to [email protected]. > To unsubscribe from this group, send email to > [email protected]. > For more options, visit this group at > http://groups.google.com/group/thinking-sphinx?hl=en. > -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Thinking Sphinx" group.
