# ==Sphinx Client API
# 
# The Sphinx Client API is used to communicate with <tt>searchd</tt>
# daemon and get search results from Sphinx.
# 
# ===Usage
# 
#   sphinx = Sphinx::Client.new
#   result = sphinx.Query('test')
#   ids = result['matches'].map { |match| match['id'] }.join(',')
#   posts = Post.find :all, :conditions => "id IN (#{ids})"
#   
#   docs = posts.map(&:body)
#   excerpts = sphinx.BuildExcerpts(docs, 'index', 'test')

    # <tt>query</tt> is query string

    # <tt>index</tt> is index name (or names) to query. default value is "*" which means
    # to query all indexes. Accepted characters for index names are letters, numbers,
    # dash, and underscore; everything else is considered a separator. Therefore,
    # all the following calls are valid and will search two indexes:
    #
    #   sphinx.Query('test query', 'main delta')
    #   sphinx.Query('test query', 'main;delta')
    #   sphinx.Query('test query', 'main, delta')
    #
    # Index order matters. If identical IDs are found in two or more indexes,
    # weight and attribute values from the very last matching index will be used
    # for sorting and returning to client. Therefore, in the example above,
    # matches from "delta" index will always "win" over matches from "main".
    #
    # Returns false on failure.
    # Returns hash which has the following keys on success:
    # 
    # * <tt>'matches'</tt> -- array of hashes {'weight', 'group', 'id'}, where 'id' is document_id.
    # * <tt>'total'</tt> -- total amount of matches retrieved (upto SPH_MAX_MATCHES, see sphinx.h)
    # * <tt>'total_found'</tt> -- total amount of matching documents in index
    # * <tt>'time'</tt> -- search time
    # * <tt>'words'</tt> -- hash which maps query terms (stemmed!) to ('docs', 'hits') hash
