Postgres Search in Django

Postgres Search in Django

This project attempts to do couple of things

1. Postgres Full text search
2. Django integration with Postgres Search using South
3. Celery task to asyncronously update the Search table
4. AngularJS for front end coding

Install

• Create a database in Postgres, note down the user, password, database and schema name.
  • Make sure you set the search_path to the schema name on the user.
• Download the code
• From the root, run bin/install.sh data/Users.xml. It will try to load the stackexchange DBA users
• On a separate terminal run bin/celery.sh
• Then run the server bin/run.sh runserver --noreload 0.0.0.0:8080
• Goto http://localhost:8080 and test the search

Explore comments and keep checking as I add more code to it, e.g. Ranking, Similarity

Haystack

• I am planning to add postgres search to haystack so its available for users using Haystack
