Adds a function to the Configuration class to load a YAML
file. This means that searching for the file is generalised
and works the same now for all configuration files. Changes
the search logic, so that it is always possible to have a
custom version of the configuration file in the project
directory.
Move ICU tokenizer to use new load function.
The new icu tokenizer is now no longer compatible with the old
legacy tokenizer in terms of data structures. Therefore there
is also no longer a need to refer to the legacy tokenizer in the
name.
Postgresql is very bad at creating statistics for jsonb
columns. The result is that the query planer tends to
use JIT for queries with a where over 'info' even when
there is an index.
Requires a second wrapper class for the word table with the new
layout. This class is interface-compatible, so that later when
the ICU tokenizer becomes the default, all tests that depend on
behaviour of the default tokenizer can be switched to the other
wrapper.
The table now directly reflects the different token types.
Extra information is saved in a json structure that may be
dynamically extended in the future without affecting the
table layout.
The partial word count does not split names to save a bit of time.
The result is that it might enounter unreasonably long names
which in truth consist of multiple words. No accurate statistics
are needed so simply restrict the count to words shorter than
75 characters.
Two replacement words directly following each other did not
work as expected because each expects a space at the
beginning/end while there was only one space available.
Also forbit composing a word after a space was added in the
end by a previous replacement.
The new format combines compound splitting and abbreviation.
It also allows to restrict rules to additional conditions
(like language or region). This latter ability is not used
yet.
Compound decomposition now creates a full name variant on
import just like abbreviations. This simplifies query time
normalization and opens a path for changing abbreviation
and compund decomposition lists for an existing database.
This adds precomputation of abbreviated terms for names and removes
abbreviation of terms in the query. Basic import works but still
needs some thorough testing as well as speed improvements during
import.
New dependency for python library datrie.
The tokenizer configuration has become difficult to handle
due to the additional manual transliteration rules. Allow
to have a separate rule file that is given to the ICU library
as is.
Special terms need to be prefixed by a space because they are
full terms.
For countries avoid duplicate entries of word tokens.
Adds tests for adding country terms.
- only save partial words without internal spaces
- consider comma and semicolon a separator of full words
- consider parts before an opening bracket a full word
(but not the part after the bracket)
Fixes#244.
Explicitly check for the tokenizer source file to check that
the name is correct. We can't use the import error for that
because it hides other import errors like a missing
library.
Fixes#2327.
The Python code now takes care of reading postcodes from placex,
enhancing them with potentially existing external postcodes and
updating location_postcodes accordingly. The initial setup and
updates use exactly the same function.
External postcode handling has been generalized. External postcodes
for any country are now accepted. The format of the external postcode
file has changed. We now expect CSV, potentially gzipped. The
postcodes are no longer saved in the database.
The tokenizer to be used can be choosen with -DTOKENIZER.
Adapt all tests, so that they work with legacy_icu tokenizer.
Move lookup in word table to a function in the tokenizer.
Special phrases are temporarily imported from the wiki until
we have an implementation that can import from file. TIGER
tests do not work yet.
