This package documentation is really bad, at least for newbies like me, it ignores the fact that most ppl dont understand the key concepts of this kind of searching.
I have no idea what fuzzinness is or does, or prefix_length, or max_expansions, or distance, or asYouType (i assume this is something for ajax???) or searchBoolean, and the documentation just makes you copy and paste those things without explaining what are they about.
I tried to find tutorials, examples, etc, but they are outdated, like the "Searching for Bobby Fisher with Laravel 5".
If you could PLEASE update and expand the documentation a bit, it would be amazing, because right now this package works so bad (my fault probably), like if i paginate, sometimes i get some pages with 1 or 2 results while the other pages have the correct amount of results in them (example, page 1 has 1 result, page 2 has 10 results....what???) or being unable to achieve a LIKE %string% seach, if i seach for "pizza" and the name i have is "superpizza", it wont be found, but if i search for "super", i get the result, i tried adding trigrams and nothing.... And one more thing, why to negate a word you have to place the - in the words you want to keep? makes no sense
What about negation, ie. if you want to get all Fishers that aren't Bobbies? Simple, Bobby -Fisher.-Bobby Fisher makes more sense
So what im asking for is if you could improve the documentation without assuming we all know whats in your mind, thanks :S Hope i dont sound too demanding, but im really frustrated with this package, i really want to love it but right now its imposible :(
