How do I handle the following PostgreSQL function in Web2py? ALTER TABLE pgweb ADD COLUMN textsearchable_index_col tsvector; UPDATE pgweb SET textsearchable_index_col = to_tsvector('english', coalesce(title,'') || ' ' || coalesce(body,''));
I know I can use executesql for creating the indexes but in some cases it is preferable to create a column with the type 'tsvector' as in the example above or in the one below: CREATE TABLE messages ( title text, body text, tsv tsvector ); And then how do I handle queries like this? SELECT title, body FROM messages WHERE tsv @@ to_tsquery('title & body'); Regards Johann -- May grace and peace be yours in abundance through the full knowledge of God and of Jesus our Lord!
