Can we have morphology at field level?

[Naveed Rehman]

I am indexing several fields but I want to apply morphology 'metaphone' at field level not model level. I mean i just want to search sound alike words (morphology) on just 1-2 fields. Can I do that in thinking sphinx?

Hi Naveed

Unfortunately morphology is an index-level setting - but what you could try is having multiple indices, one with the fields in question, the other with all other fields. You'll need to have the same attributes in both, though. Just give at least one of the define_index blocks an explicit name:

define_index('foo') do
# metaphoned fields
# attributes

set_property :morphology => 'megaphone'
end

define_index('bar') do
# other fields
# attributes
end

Give that a shot, let us know how it goes.

Cheers
