sphinxsearchHow do I use SphinxSearch operators?


SphinxSearch is a powerful open source search engine that is used to index and search data stored in a variety of formats. It supports a wide range of operators that can be used to refine searches and make them more accurate.

The following example shows how to use the AND operator to search for documents containing both the words "cat" and "dog":

SELECT * FROM documents WHERE MATCH('cat AND dog')

The following operators are supported by SphinxSearch:

  • AND: returns documents that contain both of the words specified.
  • OR: returns documents that contain either of the words specified.
  • NOT: returns documents that contain the first word but not the second.
  • NEAR: returns documents that contain both words within a certain distance of each other.
  • SENTENCE: returns documents that contain the words in the specified order.
  • PROXIMITY: returns documents that contain both words within a certain distance of each other, regardless of order.

For more information about SphinxSearch operators, please refer to the official documentation.
