Find the list of fields indexed?

[Martin Streicher]

I can ask if a model is searchable using searchable?

Can I also find the list of fields indexed within a class's searchable
block?

For example, if I have

searchable do
string(:name)
boolean(:published)
end

can I get a list that returns [:name, :published]?

Martin,

Nothing that straightforward, but you can call
Sunspot::Setup.for(MyModel) and that will bring you back an object you
can introspect.

Based on a previous question that Mat answered (located at http://groups.google.com/group/ruby-sunspot/browse_thread/thread/815cd71bfb81be59/da65179527232d60?lnk=gst&q=find+list+of+fields+indexed#da65179527232d60), I found the trick:

Sunspot::Setup.for(Klass).fields.map(&:name)

returns the symbols/field names used in the searchable block to create the index for Klass.

Mat advises this is not part of the public API.

One of my goals for Sunspot 2.0 is to have much richer introspection
ability, including a public API for introspecting a model's search
setup.

I wrote up a little something...

All, please let me know if you see errors.

Hello, 

I was wondering if any of these introspection features are in sunspot 2.0 or if the method described in this thread are still the main way to 

access a models search setup and get fields that are being indexed in solr. 

Thanks, 

Terrence
