sphinx-searchExample of sphinxsearch usage in Python

SphinxSearch is a powerful full-text search engine written in C++. It can be used in Python applications to provide fast and accurate search results.

Example code

import sphinxapi

# Create a SphinxClient object
client = sphinxapi.SphinxClient()

# Set the server, port, and search query
client.SetServer('localhost', 9312)
client.SetMatchMode(sphinxapi.SPH_MATCH_EXTENDED2)
client.Query('python')

# Get the results
results = client.GetMatches()

# Print the results
for result in results:
    print(result)

Output example

{'weight': 1, 'attrs': {}, 'id': 1, 'matches': [{'weight': 1, 'id': 1, 'word': 'python'}]}

The code above creates a SphinxClient object, sets the server, port, and search query, and then gets the results. The results are then printed.

Parts of the code:

• import sphinxapi: imports the SphinxSearch API for Python
• client = sphinxapi.SphinxClient(): creates a SphinxClient object
• client.SetServer('localhost', 9312): sets the server and port
• client.SetMatchMode(sphinxapi.SPH_MATCH_EXTENDED2): sets the search query
• client.Query('python'): sets the search query
• results = client.GetMatches(): gets the results
• for result in results:: iterates through the results
• print(result): prints the results
