Howdy folks!
I'm very new to Thinking Sphinx and am still getting my bearings
around Rails in general. I'm presently trying to implement facets in
my product search. I'm able to search normally and am also able to
display the facets, but clicking on a facet link to try and drill-down
and see the results via a facet filter doesn't seem to actually alter
the search results. Not sure if it helps, but clicking a link in the
browser returns a URL like this: <domain>/listings?category=2&page=1.
As you can see, it looks kinda right, but seems to drop the search
query as well.
I've read through the facets page on the docs and while I see how one
can return products via facets in the console, I'm having a real hard
time actually putting the pieces together and implementing in my rails
application. In isolation everything seems fine, just not in practice
as a whole. I apologize for what I assume is a fairly basic
question... What am I missing that would otherwise make facet links
functional (while also maintaining the search query)?
Here's a snipped portion of my model:
belongs_to :product
define_index do
has product.category(:id), :as => :category, :facet => true
end
controller:
def index
@listings = Listing.search(params[:search], :with => {}, :page =>
params[:page])
@facets = Listing.facets(params[:search])
View's search btn:
<% form_tag @search, :method => :get do %>
<p>
<%= text_field_tag :search, params[:search] %>
<%= submit_tag "Search", :name => nil %>
</p>
View's facet filter:
<% @facets.each do |facet, facet_options| %>
<h5><%= facet %></h5>
<ul>
<% facet_options.each do |option, count| %>
<li><%= link_to "#{option} (#{count})",
:params => {facet => option, :page => 1} %></li>
<% end %>
</ul>
<% end %>
For the actual list of products, I'm simply iterating through and
displaying each product in @listings.
Thank you!
