FuzzyRecord

FuzzyRecord searches through active records using fuzzy matchers and orders them based on FuzzyString.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'fuzzy_record'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install fuzzy_record

Usage

To use for any active record model:

    $ Model.fuzzy_search('string')

It will search through your model for records where the first of these that exists (:fuzzy_name, :ident, :name) fuzzy_matches and order it by best match

Alternatively you can use a hash where the field to be searched is the key:

    $ Model.fuzzy_search(title: 'string')

To make this the default behavior for your model simply add the definition:

    $ def self.fuzzy_search(str) super(title: str) end
