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 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.
This adds an installation step for PHP code for the tokenizer. The
PHP code is split in two parts. The updateable code is found in
lib-php. The tokenizer installs an additional script in the
project directory which then includes the code from lib-php and
defines all settings that are static to the database. The website
code then always includes the PHP from the project directory.
The BDD tests still use the old-style amenity creation scripts
because we don't have simple means to import a hand-crafted
test file of special phrases right now.
Normalization and token computation are now done in the tokenizer.
The tokenizer keeps a cache to the hundred most used house numbers
to keep the numbers of calls to the database low.
Add a jsonb column to the placex and location_property_osmline tables
which can be used by the installed tokenizer as required. No other
part of the software will use or otherwise rely on this column.
Creating and populating the word table is now the responsibility
of the tokenizer.
The get_maxwordfreq() function has been replaced with a
simple template parameter to the SQL during function installation.
The number is taken from the parameter list in the database to
ensure that it is not changed after installation.
Adds a migration that initialises a legacy tokenizer for
an existing database. The migration is not active yet as
it will need completion when more functionality is added
to the legacy tokenizer.
