governor_thinking_sphinx¶ ↑

*Governor is archived* due to the fact that it’s locked to Rails v3.0, and as such can’t patch any security holes or support modern applications.

Governor[http://carpeliam.github.com/governor/] (named after Rod Blagojevich) is the pluggable blogging platform for Rails, built for people who want to build their blog into their website, not build their website into their blog.

governor_thinking_sphinx is a plugin for Governor, allowing people to search within your blog.

Dependencies¶ ↑

Governor, version 0.2.2 or higher.
ThinkingSphinx
ActiveRecord

Setting Up¶ ↑

First, install Governor. Then, in your Gemfile, add the following:

gem 'governor_thinking_sphinx'

Once you’ve installed the gem into your app, you need to run the generator:

rails generate governor:add_thinking_sphinx [RESOURCE]

If you’ve only created one type of resource (which is typical), then you won’t need any arguments. Otherwise, you’ll need to specify which model you want to add searching to. This will create a migration to enable your article class to support delta indexing.

Usage¶ ↑

The current version does not have a built-in view for searching. The best example is in the spec.

Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
