I've have created an index using a Rerret based application, and may

I tried yo use the acts_as_ferret plugin for Rails, but when I have
read the tutorials, it seemed to mes that acts_as_ferret allows only
to index the Ruby Rails web application data stired in it's data
base, and helps to operate researches using the created index.
But I really wonder if acts_as_ferret may allow to load an external
already created index (Like the index I've created with my
application) in order to use the acts_as_ferret technology to make
researches on it and display the results using a Ruby Rails
application!
Is this possible, if not, have any one any idea!
If you don't plan to modify the ferret index from inside your Rails
application, the easiest way is to use Ferret's API directly for
querying your index. Acts_as_ferret won't be of much help in your
case, since it's focus is to keep an index in sync with a database
that is accessed via active record.
Cheers,
Jens
