Thanks very much Oleg.
Still it is not really making the pain go away.
I've weights stored in my tsvector and I need to build the query
using them.
This means that if I have:
'aubergine':4A 'orange':1B 'banana':5A 'apple':3C
and
'coconut':3B 'bananas':1A 'tomatoes:2C
stored in a column (tsv) I really would like to build up the query:
to_tsquery('aubergine:A | orange:B | bananas:A | apple:C')
then
tsv
@@
to_tsquery('aubergine:A | orange:B | bananas:A | apple:C')
and relative ts_rank()
I'm aware that it is not symmetrical, but it looks as the cheapest
and fastest thing I can do right now.
I'm using pg_catalog.english. Am I supposing correctly that NO
lexeme will contain spaces?
If that is the case I could simply use string manipulation tools.
Not nice to see but it will work.

What ts_rank does is more than enough right now.

Good luck. Do you have anything like http://www.chipin.com/ for
small donations?
