I am building a web site in Django where I would need to implement searching through about 5 million records.
Users need to be able to:
- Search by full text on title and body of entry
- Filter on category
- Sort by Votes
- Sort by price.
Is there a search engine which supports all the above inherently and connects well to django ? I’ve built a similar system before using Sphinx but was not really happy with it’s Django integration. Anyone has other suggestion or can convince me that Sphinx is good enough ?
Just use django-haystack and select your backend.
