Setting up Thinking-Sphinx on Mac OS X using Homebrew

Out of the box, Homebrew does a default installation on Sphinx:

$ brew install sphinx

However, if you're using MySQL, the thinking-sphinx gem won't work because it needs to use MySQL libraries.

If you managed to screw up the first time, uninstall sphinx first:

$ brew remove sphinx

An example of elasticsearch & Tire setup for ActiveRecord associations
# An example of elasticsearch & Tire setup for ActiveRecord associations.
#
# A `Book has_many :chapters` scenario, with mapping and JSON serialization
# for indexing associated models.
#
# Demonstrates three important caveats as of now:
#
# 1. You you have to use `touch: true` in the `belongs_to` declaration,
# to automatically notify the parent model about the update.
