I have MySQL and Sphinx installed and working properly on a LNMP server. Now I'd like to integrate a Sphinx sub-query into an existing MySQL query.
Example:
SELECT * FROM mysql_table
JOIN (SELECT id FROM sphinx_index MATCH ('keyword')) AS match_table
ON match_table.id = mysql_table.id
Is this possible? If not, should I do the Sphinx separately and then use WHERE IN
in the MySQL query, or will this kill the extra efficiency I'm getting from Sphinx?
