Adding a B-tree index: ```sql CREATE INDEX index_posts_on_title ON posts (title); ``` - Use `GIN` or `GiST` Index with `pg_trgm` extension for LIKE and ILIKE. When searching for substrings (%word%), B-tree indexes won't help. Instead, use trigram indexing (`pg_trgm` extension): ```sql CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_trgm; CREATE INDEX posts_title_trgm_idx ON posts USING GIN (title gin_trgm_ops); ``` - If using prefix search, convert data to lowercase and use B-tree index for case-insensitive search: ```sql ALTER TABLE posts ADD COLUMN title_lower TEXT GENERATED ALWAYS AS (LOWER(title)) STORED; CREATE INDEX index_posts_on_title ON posts (title_lower); ``` ```elixir Torus.like([p], [p.title_lower], "hogwarts%") ``` - Use full-text search for large text fields, see `full_text/5` for more details.

Possible options are: - `:full` (default) - uses `similarity` function. - `:word` - uses `word_similarity` function. If you're dealing with sentences and you don't want the length of the strings to affect the search result. - `:strict` - uses `strict_word_similarity` function. Prioritizes full matches, forces extent boundaries to match word boundaries. Since we don't have cross-word trigrams, this function actually returns greatest similarity between first string and any continuous extent of words of the second string. * `:order` - describes the ordering of the results. Possible values are - `:desc` (default) - orders the results by similarity rank in descending order. - `:asc` - orders the results by similarity rank in ascending order. - `:none` - doesn't apply ordering and returns * `:pre_filter` - whether or not to pre-filter the results: - `false` (default) - omits pre-filtering and returns all results. - `true` - before applying the order, pre filters (using boolean operators which potentially use GIN indexes) the result set. The results above `pg_trgm.similarity_threshold` (which defaults to 0.3) are returned. ## Examples iex> insert_post!(title: "Hogwarts Shocker", body: "A spell disrupts the Quidditch Cup.") ...> insert_post!(title: "Diagon Bombshell", body: "Secrets uncovered in the heart of Hogwarts.") ...> insert_post!(title: "Completely unrelated", body: "No magic here!") ...> Post ...> |> Torus.similarity([p], [p.title, p.body], "Diagon Bombshell") ...> |> limit(1) ...> |> select([p], p.title) ...> |> Repo.all() ["Diagon Bombshell"] iex> insert_posts!(["Wand", "Owl", "What an amazing cloak"]) ...> Post ...> |> Torus.similarity([p], [p.title], "what a cloak", pre_filter: true) ...> |> select([p], p.title) ...> |> Repo.all() ["What an amazing cloak"] ## Optimizations - Use `pre_filter: true` to pre-filter the results before applying the order. This would significantly reduce the number of rows to order. The pre-filtering phase uses different (boolean) similarity operators which more actively leverage GIN indexes. - Limit the number of raws returned using `limit`. - Use `order: :none` argument if you don't care about the order of the results. The query will return all results that are above the similarity threshold, which you can set globally via `SET pg_trgm.similarity_threshold = 0.3;`. - When `order: :desc` (default) and the limit is not set, the query will do a full table scan, so it's recommended to manually limit the results (by applying `where` or `limit` clauses to filter the rows as much as possible). ### Adding an index ```sql CREATE EXTENSION IF NOT EXISTS pg_trgm; CREATE INDEX index_posts_on_title ON posts USING GIN (title gin_trgm_ops); ``` """ defmacro similarity(query, bindings, qualifiers, term, opts \\ []) do Torus.Search.Similarity.similarity(query, bindings, qualifiers, term, opts) end # ---------------------------------------------------------------- # TODO: Combine different types of searches (or at least show how) # ---------------------------------------------------------------- @doc group: "Full text" @doc """ Full text search with rank ordering. Accepts a list of columns to search in. A list of columns can either be a text or `tsvector` type. If `tsvector`s are passed make sure to set `stored: true`. Cleans the term, so it can be input directly by the user. The default preset of settings is optimal for most cases. Full Text Searching (or just text search) provides the capability to identify natural-language documents that satisfy a query, and optionally to sort them by relevance to the query. The most common type of search is to find all documents containing given query terms and return them in order of their similarity to the query. Notions of query and similarity are very flexible and depend on the specific application. The simplest search considers query as a set of words and similarity as the frequency of query words in the document. Read more in [PostgreSQL Full Text Search docs](https://postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/textsearch-intro.html). ## Options * `:prefix_search` - whether to apply prefix search. - `true` (default) - the term is treated as a prefix - `false` - only counts full-word matches * `:stored` - `false` (default) - columns (or expressions) passed as qualifiers are of type `text` - `true` - columns (or expressions) passed as qualifiers are **tsvectors** * `:language` - language used for the search. Defaults to `"english"`. * `:term_function` - function used to convert the term to `ts_query`. Can be one of: - `:websearch_to_tsquery` (default) - converts term to a tsquery, normalizing words according to the specified or default configuration. Quoted word sequences are converted to phrase tests. The word “or” is understood as producing an OR operator, and a dash produces a NOT operator; other punctuation is ignored. This approximates the behavior of some common web search tools. - `:plainto_tsquery` - converts term to a tsquery, normalizing words according to the specified or default configuration. Any punctuation in the string is ignored (it does not determine query operators). The resulting query matches documents containing all non-stopwords in the term. - `:phraseto_tsquery` - converts term to a tsquery, normalizing words according to the specified or default configuration. Any punctuation in the string is ignored (it does not determine query operators). The resulting query matches phrases containing all non-stopwords in the text. * `:rank_function` - function used to rank the results. - `:ts_rank_cd` (default) - computes a score showing how well the vector matches the query, using a cover density algorithm. See [Ranking Search Results](https://postgresql.org/docs/current/interactive/textsearch-controls.html#TEXTSEARCH-RANKING) for more details. - `:ts_rank` - computes a score showing how well the vector matches the query. * `:rank_weights` - a list of weights for each column. Defaults to `[:A, :B, :C, :D]`. The length of weights (if provided) should be the same as the length of the columns we search for. A single weight can be either a string or an atom. Possible values are: - `:A` - 1.0 - `:B` - 0.4 - `:C` - 0.2 - `:D` - 0.1 * `:rank_normalization` - a string that specifies whether and how a document's length should impact its rank. The integer option controls several behaviors, so it is a bit mask: you can specify one or more behaviors using `|` (for example, `2|4`). - `0` (default for `ts_rank`) - ignores the document length - `1` - divides the rank by 1 + the logarithm of the document length - `2` - divides the rank by the document length - `4` (default for `ts_rank_cs`) - divides the rank by the mean harmonic distance between extents (this is implemented only by `ts_rank_cd`) - `8` - divides the rank by the number of unique words in document - `16` - divides the rank by 1 + the logarithm of the number of unique words in document - `32` - divides the rank by itself + 1 * `:order` - describes the ordering of the results. Possible values are - `:desc` (default) - orders the results by similarity rank in descending order. - `:asc` - orders the results by similarity rank in ascending order. - `:none` - doesn't apply ordering at all. * `:filter_type` - `:or` (default) - uses `OR` operator to combine different column matches. Selecting this option means that the search term won't match across columns. - `:concat` - joins the columns into a single tsvector and searches for the term in the concatenated string containing all columns. - `:none` - doesn't apply any filtering and returns all results. * `empty_return` - `true` (default) - returns all results when the search term is empty. - `false` - returns an empty list when the search term is empty. * `:coalesce` - `true` (default) - when joining columns via `:concat` option, adds a `COALESCE` function to handle NULL values. Choose this when you can't guarantee that all columns are non-null. - `false` - doesn't add `COALESCE` function to the query. Choose this when you're using `filter_type: :concat` and can guarantee that all columns are non-null. ## Example usage iex> insert_post!(title: "Hogwarts Shocker", body: "A spell disrupts the Quidditch Cup.") ...> insert_post!(title: "Diagon Bombshell", body: "Secrets uncovered in the heart of Hogwarts.") ...> insert_post!(title: "Completely unrelated", body: "No magic here!") ...> Post ...> |> Torus.full_text([p], [p.title, p.body], "uncov hogwar") ...> |> select([p], p.title) ...> |> Repo.all() ["Diagon Bombshell"] ## Optimizations - Store precomputed tsvector in a separate column, add a GIN index to it, and use `stored: true`. - Add a GIN tsvector index on the column(s) you search in.
