Preface

Summary


With the index (that we created in Chapter 3, Indexing as a base), in this chapter:

  • We wrote different search queries

  • We saw how PHP's implementation of the Sphinx client API can be used in PHP applications to issue some powerful search queries

  • We also saw how to filter our search results by different attributes

  • Lastly, we saw how to rank, sort, and group the search results by different attributes

In the next chapter we will build a practical application from the ground up, which will involve search using Sphinx.
