sphinxsearchHow do I use Sphinx to search by ID?


Sphinx is a powerful open-source full-text search engine that can be used to search by ID. It is written in C++ and provides a fast and efficient way to search through large volumes of data.

To use Sphinx to search by ID, you will need to create an index for the ID field. To do this, you can use the following command:

index id_field
{
    type = rt
    rt_field = id
    rt_attr_uint = id
}

This command will create an index for the id_field with the type rt (real-time index). The rt_field parameter specifies the field in the data that contains the ID to be used for searching. The rt_attr_uint parameter specifies the data type of the ID field.

Once the index is created, you can use the following query to search by ID:

SELECT * FROM index_name WHERE MATCH('@id <id_value>')

This query will search the index_name index for documents with the specified id_value.

For more information on using Sphinx to search by ID, see the Sphinx documentation.
