Hello,
I am running Flying Sphinx in production, and I'd like to change my index requests to hit a replica database instead of the main production database.
Is there a configuration parameter I can set to accomplish this?

Hi Thomas
At this point there isn't an easy way to do that. It's worth noting that Thinking Sphinx reads the database configuration directly from ActiveRecord - but then the issue is that Heroku only lets you use one environment (and thus, the database settings they insert into config/database.yml).
As a temporary work-around, you could look into how the flying-sphinx gem modifies configuration settings to match what the FS servers expect, and perhaps adapt that? It's worth noting though that this will change soon - flying-sphinx.com's APIs will manage a lot of the settings internally (which will allow for the gem to become much simpler). Still, the old APIs aren't going to disappear, so it's worth investigating.
