solr-ruby - Retrieving document boost values from query

I need to be able to see the boost values for existing solr  
documents.  I've been able to set the boost values upon creation, but  
I'm not sure how to view those values from a query.  Is there a way I  
can have a query return Solr::Dcoument objects so that I can access  
the boost attribute?  Currently, just a Hash is returned.

On another note, I'm ready to start contributing to solr-ruby.  I'd  
like to start with the documentation... I've created a JIRA ticket  
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SOLR-473) for this under  
clients-ruby-flare (there is no component for solr-ruby).  My plan is  
to post an svn diff to this ticket with my updates.  Any guidance  
that you can give in this process would be appreciated.

Hi Chris,

Unfortunately, in terms of Lucene, document boost value always returns 1
at query time.
See the following getBoost() method Javadoc:

http://hudson.zones.apache.org/hudson/job/Lucene-trunk/javadoc/org/apache/lucene/document/Document.html

regards,

Koji

Thanks Koji... I think I'll just create a field for the boost value  
and update that field whenever I update the document.
