Is there a score per result?

[t2thec]

I LOVE this package. Thanks very much for putting it together.

I am using the Laravel driver and search multiple models in turn. I would like to then rank the results from all models by a score.

I presume from my digging around that this currently isn't possible? Or am I wrong?

One again, thanks for this. So simple and affective.

@t2thec

there are some fields in the database that show this will be added. see answer here: #56

for now you could use the php similar_text function to add a weighting to the results array..

something like this:

foreach ($res['ids'] as $result) {

//fetch data for id from database here.

similar_text(strtolower($yourSearchQuery), strtolower($resultArray['arrayKeyToSort']), $percent);

//push data to array and include the $percent
}

After this you can sort the array using usort

Sweet. Thanks @fishgrind. Legendary work!

@t2thec no worries. Just remember similar_text is case sensitive hence the strtolower()

probably better and faster is using levenshtein() though see http://www.w3schools.com/php/func_string_levenshtein.asp
