Limestone is a Sphinx search server connector for Node.js

Usage:

var limestone = require("./limestone").SphinxClient(),
sys = require("sys");

limestone.connect(9312, // port. 9312 is standard Sphinx port. also 'host:port' allowed
	      function(err) { // callback
		  if (err) {
		      sys.puts('Connection error: ' + err);
		  }
		  sys.puts('Connected, sending query');
		  limestone.query(
		      {'query':'test', maxmatches:1}, 
		      function(err, answer) {
			  limestone.disconnect();
			  sys.puts("Extended search for 'test' yielded " + 
				   answer.match_count + " results: " + 
				   JSON.stringify(answer));
		      });
	      });

To Use Build_Excerpts:

limestone.connect(9312,  // port
	      function(err) { //callback
		  if (err) {
		      sys.puts('Connection error: ' + err);
		  }
		  sys.puts('Connected Build Excerpts');
		  limestone.build_excerpts(
		      ['this is my teste text to be highlighted', 
		       'this is another test text to be highlighted'], // docs
		      'questions_1',
		      'test text',
		      {},
		      function(err, answer) {
			  limestone.disconnect();
			  sys.puts(JSON.stringify(answer));
		      }
		  );
	      });

Bonus: persistent connection: You can ask sphinx to open a persistent connection. You can then make several request through the same connection

limestone.connect(9312, // port
	      true, // persistent (optional)
	      function(err) { // callback
			  if (err){
		      sys.puts('Connection error: ' + err);
		  }
		  sys.puts('Connected Search'); 
		  sys.puts('sending query');  
		  limestone.query(
		      {'query':'test', // query obj with sphinx opts
		       maxmatches:1,
		       indexes:'questions_1,products_3'},
		      function(err, answer){ // callback
			  sys.puts('Extended search yielded ' + 
				   answer.match_count + " results\n" +
				   JSON.stringify(answer));
	
			  limestone.build_excerpts(
			      ['this is my teste text to be highlighted', 
			       'this is another test text to be highlighted'], // docs
			      'questions_1', // index
			      'test text', // words
			      {},
			      function(err, answer){
				  limestone.disconnect();
				  sys.puts(JSON.stringify(answer));
			      }
			  );
			  
		      }
		  );
	      });

Limestone is queueing now: You can safely call limestone.query or limestone.build_excerpts methods outside the scope of the callback functions, provided the connection is made persistent. Limestone will enqueue the sphinx commands and run them sequentially.

This works:

limestone.connect(9312, // port. 9312 is standard Sphinx port
	      function(err) { // callback
	          ...
		  limestone.query(
		      {'query':'test', maxmatches:1}, 
		      function(err, answer) {
		          ....
		      });
	      });

limestone.query({'second query':'test'}, function(err, answer){..}); // won't crash with previous
