sphinxsearchHow do I use SphinxSearch functions?

SphinxSearch is a powerful full-text search engine that can be used to quickly search and retrieve data from large datasets. It is written in C and can be used from a variety of programming languages, including PHP, Python, and Ruby.

The basic syntax of SphinxSearch is relatively simple, and can be used to query data from a single table or multiple tables. To use SphinxSearch functions, you will need to include the sphinxapi.php library in your code.

For example, to search a table called articles for the term sphinx, you could use the following code:

$cl = new SphinxClient();
$cl->SetMatchMode(SPH_MATCH_ALL);
$cl->Query('sphinx', 'articles');
$results = $cl->Get();

The code above will search the articles table for all documents containing the term sphinx and return a list of matching results.

Code explanation

• $cl = new SphinxClient(): This creates a new SphinxClient object.
• $cl->SetMatchMode(SPH_MATCH_ALL): This sets the match mode to SPH_MATCH_ALL, which means that all documents containing the search term will be returned.
• $cl->Query('sphinx', 'articles'): This performs the search using the sphinx term and the articles table.
• $cl->Get(): This returns the results of the search query.
