Question

Hey guys, do you know some trick about how can I optimize more a full match search?

The code that I’m trying to optimize:

$do = $this->select()
      ->where('MATCH(`name`,`ort`) AGAINST( ? IN BOOLEAN MODE)', $theString)
      ->order('premium DESC');

The search should search for some companies…and let’s say that in the field name I have: Google and in the ort field I have new york.

I want to do a query like: google center in new york and to give me as a result all the google centers from new york only!

I hope you understand what I mean!

Answer 1

use the relevance to sort

$do = $this->select("*, MATCH(`name`,`ort`) AGAINST ('{$theString}') AS score")
      ->where('MATCH(`name`,`ort`) AGAINST( ? IN BOOLEAN MODE)', $theString)
      ->order('premium DESC, score');
