I know that sqlite FTS provides proximity operators with NEAR and I also know that the querying tokenizer section says you can get a token position (http://www.sqlite.org/fts3.html#section_8_2).
Although when using the offsets() function in FTS you get the byte position as opposed to the token position. I'd like to implement a proximity ranking function that ideally works like so: SELECT docID, rank(matchinfo(documents, 'pcxnal'), offsets(documents)) as score FROM documents MATCH <query-pattern> ORDER BY score DESC LIMIT 10; or as extra information within matchinfo(). As far as I can tell this information isn't easily accessible through the API but shouldn't be too much of a stretch to be accessible. I'm not averse to the idea of writing the code myself so before diving in, would anyone familiar have any advice or pointers or is there an "intro to contributing to sqlite" guide I need to read? -- View this message in context: http://sqlite.1065341.n5.nabble.com/Proximity-ranking-with-FTS-tp76149.html Sent from the SQLite mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
