Sphinx for PHP 5.3 and above

Build Status Latest Stable Version Total Downloads License

This class is a port of the original Sphinx API class by Andrew Aksyonoff and Sphinx Technologies Inc to PHP 5.3 and above.

1. Requirements

  • Composer
  • PHP 5.3 or above
  • SphinxSearch

2. Added removeFilter

While all the existing methods are available and vastly documented in the Sphinx Documentation, this version of the SphinxClient for PHP includes a new method.

  • removeFilter: The original SphinxClient allows you to clear all filters. This method removes a specific filter previously set.
<?php

$sphinxSearch = new \NilPortugues\Sphinx\SphinxClient();

//Do connection and set up search method...
$sphinxSearch->setServer('127.0.0.1',9312);


// Do search...
// Result would contain "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", to be in theatres in 2014.
$sphinxSearch->setFilter('year',array(2014));
$result = $sphinxSearch->query('Spiderman','movies');

// Unset the filter to stop filtering by year
// Now we'll get all the Spiderman movies.
$sphinxSearch->removeFilter('year');
$result = $sphinxSearch->query('Spiderman','movies');

3. Added chainable methods

While updating the code, chaining capability has been added. SphinxClient's setters can be chained resulting in a cleaner code.

$sphinxSearch = new \NilPortugues\Sphinx\SphinxClient();

$result = $sphinxSearch
                ->setFilter('year',array(2014))
                ->query('Spiderman','movies')
        ;
