#facet(*field_names, &block) ⇒ Object

Request a facet on the search query. A facet is a feature of Solr that determines the number of documents that match the existing search and an additional criterion. This allows you to build powerful drill-down interfaces for search, at each step presenting the searcher with a set of refinements that are known to return results.

In Sunspot, each facet returns zero or more rows, each of which represents a particular criterion conjoined with the actual query being performed. For field facets, each row represents a particular value for a given field. For query facets, each row represents an arbitrary scope; the facet itself is just a means of logically grouping the scopes.

Examples

Field Facets

A field facet is specified by passing one or more Symbol arguments to this method:

Sunspot.search(Post) do
  with(:blog_id, 1)
  facet(:category_id)
end

The facet specified above will have a row for each category_id that is present in a document which also has a blog_id of 1.

Multiselect Facets

In certain circumstances, it is beneficial to exclude certain query scopes from a facet; the most common example is multi-select faceting, where the user has selected a certain value, but the facet should still show all options that would be available if they had not:

Sunspot.search(Post) do
  with(:blog_id, 1)
  category_filter = with(:category_id, 2)
  facet(:category_id, :exclude => category_filter)
end

Although the results of the above search will be restricted to those with a category_id of 2, the category_id facet will operate as if a category had not been selected, allowing the user to select additional categories (which will presumably be ORed together).

It possible to exclude multiple filters by passing an array:

Sunspot.search(Post) do
  with(:blog_id, 1)
  category_filter = with(:category_id, 2)
  author_filter = with(:author_id, 3)
  facet(:category_id,
        :exclude => [category_filter, author_filter].compact)
end

You should consider using .compact to ensure that the array does not contain any nil values.

<strong>As far as I can tell, Solr only supports multi-select with field facets; if :exclude is passed to a query facet, this method will raise an error. Also, the :only and :extra options use query faceting under the hood, so these can’t be used with :extra either. </strong>

Query Facets

A query facet is a collection of arbitrary scopes, each of which represents a row. This is specified by passing a block into the #facet method; the block then contains one or more row blocks, each of which creates a query facet row. The row blocks follow the usual Sunspot scope DSL.

For example, a query facet can be used to facet over a set of ranges:

Sunspot.search(Post) do
  facet(:average_rating) do
    row(1.0..2.0) do
      with(:average_rating, 1.0..2.0)
    end
    row(2.0..3.0) do
      with(:average_rating, 2.0..3.0)
    end
    row(3.0..4.0) do
      with(:average_rating, 3.0..4.0)
    end
    row(4.0..5.0) do
      with(:average_rating, 4.0..5.0)
    end
  end
end

Note that the arguments to the facet and row methods simply provide labels for the facet and its rows, so that they can be retrieved and identified from the Search object. They are not passed to Solr and no semantic meaning is attached to them. The label for facet should be a symbol; the label for row can be whatever you’d like.

Parameters

field_names…<Symbol>

fields for which to return field facets

Options

:sort<Symbol>

Either :count (values matching the most terms first) or :index (lexical)

:limit<Integer>

The maximum number of facet rows to return

:minimum_count<Integer>

The minimum count a facet row must have to be returned

:zeros<Boolean>

Return facet rows for which there are no matches (equivalent to :minimum_count => 0). Default is false.

:exclude<Object,Array>

Exclude one or more filters when performing the faceting (see Multiselect Faceting above). The object given for this argument should be the return value(s) of a scoping method (with, any_of, all_of, etc.). <strong>Only can be used for field facets that do not use the :extra or :only options.</strong>

:name<Symbol>

Give a custom name to a field facet. The main use case for this option is for requesting the same field facet multiple times, using different filter exclusions (see Multiselect Faceting above). If you pass this option, it is also the argument that should be passed to Search#facet when retrieving the facet result.

:only<Array>

Only return facet rows for the given values. Useful if you are only interested in faceting on a subset of values for a given field. <strong>Only applies to field facets.</strong>

:extra<Symbol,Array>

One or more of :any and :none. :any returns a facet row with a count of all matching documents that have some value for this field. :none returns a facet row with a count of all matching documents that have no value for this field. The facet row(s) corresponding to the extras have a value of the symbol passed. <strong>Only applies to field facets.</strong>
