Question

Is there any way to retrieve relevance values with results with the array returned by ThinkingSphinx? Percentages, points or whatever, just something I can work with?

Answer 1

Yep – you can iterate over the result set, and retrieve the weight for each:

results = ThinkingSphinx::Search.search(params[:q]) results.each_with_weighting do |result, weight|   puts '#{result.name} #{weight}' end
