Thanks Pat,
Your dedication to dealing with the issues through this group is
amazing.
Thanks for your advice on the below, I tried to escape the hyphen's
with no joy. It seems it is the star_query method in search.rb which
is causing the - to split up the query. Your funky regular expression
is what splits it and loops the elements into individual starred
queried such as
Sphinx Querying: '*YS*-*RSL*-*F084*'
where I am wanting to get
Sphinx Querying: '*YS-RSL-F084*'
Cheers
Richard
def star_query(query)
token = options[:star].is_a?(Regexp) ? options[:star] : /\w+/u
query.gsub(/("#{token}(.*?#{token})?"|(?![!-])#{token})/u) do
pre, proper, post = $`, $&, $'
# E.g. "@foo", "/2", "~3", but not as part of a token
is_operator = pre.match(%r{(\W|^)[...@~/]\Z})
# E.g. "foo bar", with quotes
is_quote = proper.starts_with?('"') && proper.ends_with?
('"')
has_star = pre.ends_with?("*") || post.starts_with?("*")
if is_operator || is_quote || has_star
proper
else
"*#{proper}*"
end
end
end
