如何用PHP显示Sphinx搜索结果？

Question

I installed sphinx search on localhost (wamp). I want to show results for example in one simple html table. I tried to connect with php to sphinx search, I think it done it, but when I printed the result it was 0.... but that was not true. I do not really understand that in query part I need to put the word what I want to search? I tried search in command windows, it is good working, just I do not know how to show it on web page. And I want to use mysql. So my PHP looks like this:

require ( "sphinx/api/sphinxapi.php" );
$s = new SphinxClient;
$s->setServer("localhost", 9306);
$s->setMatchMode(SPH_MATCH_ANY);
$s->setMaxQueryTime(3);

$result = $s->query("test");

var_dump($result);

Here is my mini conf file:

source src1
{
    type            = mysql

    sql_host        = localhost
    sql_user        = root
    sql_pass        =
    sql_db          = test
    sql_port        = 3306  # optional, default is 3306

    sql_query       = \
        SELECT id, group_id, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(date_added) AS date_added, title, content \
        FROM documents

    sql_attr_uint       = group_id
    sql_attr_timestamp  = date_added

    sql_query_info      = SELECT * FROM documents WHERE id=$id
}


index test1
{
    source          = src1
    path            = C:/wamp/www/sphinx/data/test1
    docinfo         = extern
    charset_type        = sbcs
}

indexer
{
    mem_limit       = 32M
}


searchd
{
    listen          = 9312
    listen          = 9306:mysql41
    log         = C:/wamp/www/sphinx/log/searchd.log
    query_log       = C:/wamp/www/sphinx/log/query.log
    read_timeout        = 5
    max_children        = 30
    pid_file        = C:/wamp/www/sphinx/log/searchd.pid
    max_matches     = 1000
    seamless_rotate     = 1
    preopen_indexes     = 1
    unlink_old      = 1
    workers         = threads # for RT to work
    binlog_path     = C:/wamp/www/sphinx/data
}

Answer 1

Your connection and a query might look like this:

$link = mysql_connect ( '127.0.0.1:9306', '', '' );
$db_selected = mysql_select_db ( 'main', $link );

and then normally mysql queries (as you would do them normally)

$sql = "select * from main WHERE MATCH('$queryterm') order by date desc LIMIT 0,50";
$result = mysql_query ( $sql );

Or you can retrieve some meta info if you want(see Sphinx document for the meta)

$metainfo = mysql_query('SHOW META');
while ( $meta = mysql_fetch_array ( $metainfo ) ) {
        $srchmeta[]=$meta;
//or whatever you want here
}

Answer 2

$s->setServer("localhost", 9306);

Thats the mysql protocol port - sphinxQL.

In your config file you have sphinx listening on 9312 with the sphinxAPI protocol. So change your setServer line to use 9312
