Recently I started a new side-project, using some full-text search done with Solr, intending to put it on Heroku. However, I had forgotten that Heroku doesn't allow any Solr for free! So I ripped it out and looked for alternatives, winding up with pg_search. I ran up against some problems, but figured out some workarounds, and wrote them up in a two-part blog post:
