levenshtein ranked results

Hi,

I tried an internet search to find out how to query solr to get the 
results ranked (ordered) by levenshtein distance.

This appears to be possible but I could not find a concrete example as 
to how I would have to formulate the query, or if its a schema setting 
on a particular field, how to set up the schema.

I am new to solr, any help appreciated.

tia.

Roland.

Hi Roland,

I did this:
http://search-lucene.com/?q=sort+by+function&fc_project=Solr&fc_type=wiki


Which took me to this:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FunctionQuery#Sort_By_Function


And further on that page you'll find strdist function documented:
http://wiki.apache.org/solr/FunctionQuery#strdist


I hope this helps.

Otis
