sphinxql如何得到结果数及show meta的详细说明

mysql：
select count(*) from main_index;

但是这个在这里却报语法错误。

第一种方法：
查文档得：
Aggregate functions (AVG(), MIN(), MAX(), SUM()) in column list clause are supported. Arguments to aggregate functions can be either plain attributes or arbitrary expressions. COUNT(*) is implicitly supported as using GROUP BY will add @count column to result set. Explicit support might be added in the future. COUNT(DISTINCT attr) is supported. Currently there can be at most one COUNT(DISTINCT) per query and an argument needs to be an attribute. Both current restrictions on COUNT(DISTINCT) might be lifted in the future.

也就是说只有在group by的时候才能用count(*)，如：

代码如下:

select 1 as dummy,count(*) c from main_index group by dummy;
+------+--------+-------+--------+
| id | weight | dummy | @count |
+------+--------+-------+--------+
| 1001 | 1      | 1 | 15659 |
+------+--------+-------+--------+

第二种方法


代码如下:

select * from main_index limit 0;
show meta;
+---------------+-------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------+-------+
| total         |  67 |
| total_found   |  67 |
| time | 0.001  |
| keyword[0]     |  ha |
| docs[0] | 67  |
| hits[0] | 115 |
+---------------+-------+

也就是说用show meta来得到这个total_found，这个就是总记录数。

下面我们来说一下show meta:
SHOW META shows additional meta-information about the latest query such as query time and keyword statistics:

也就是说它显示的是最近一次查询附加的一些信息，比如查询时间、关键字统计、总记录等。


代码如下:

mysql> SELECT * FROM test1 WHERE MATCH('test|one|two');
+------+--------+----------+------------+
| id   | weight | group_id | date_added |
+------+--------+----------+------------+
|    1 |   3563 |      456 | 1231721236 |
|    2 |   2563 |      123 | 1231721236 |
|    4 |   1480 |        2 | 1231721236 |
+------+--------+----------+------------+
3 rows in set (0.01 sec)

mysql> SHOW META;
+---------------+-------+
| Variable_name | Value |
+---------------+-------+
| total         | 3     |
| total_found   | 3     |
| time          | 0.005 |
| keyword[0]    | test  |
| docs[0]       | 3     |
| hits[0]       | 5     |
| keyword[1]    | one   |
| docs[1]       | 1     |
| hits[1]       | 2     |
| keyword[2]    | two   |
| docs[2]       | 1     |
| hits[2]       | 2     |
+---------------+-------+
12 rows in set (0.00 sec)

在PHP中如何调用？


代码如下:

<?php
//获取总记录个数
private function getTotalFound($conn) {
    $sql = "show meta";
    $total_result = @mysql_query ( $sql,$conn );
    $totals = array ();
    while ( ($row = mysql_fetch_assoc ( $total_result )) !== false ) {
        $totals [$row ['Variable_name']] = $row ['Value'];
    }
    return $totals;
}
?>

注意：如果代码中用了多个数据库连接的话，这个相应的conn必须传进来，否则是取不到结果的。
