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.
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.
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.
- the command is now --import-special-phrases
- the output is not an sql file anymore, data are directly imported to the database.
- the little part on the documentation (section data import) has been modified.
Installation includes PHP andPython libraries, settings, the basic
country data, the postgresql module and our custom version of
osm2pgsql. The latter is installed in our private library directory
so that it does not get in the way of a potentially installed
osm2pgsql from the distribution.
With the website directory now tied to the project directory instead
of the build directory, it is no longer possible to use make for
running the web server.
Instead of creating the website wrapper scripts with cmake,
they are now created when --setup-website is called. The
setup of the configuration constants is directly embedded
into the scripts. This means we can get rid of the separate
settings-frontend.php. More importantly however, it means
that it is now possible to set up multiple website directories
from the same build directory.
CONST_BasePath is split into separate configuration variables
for binaries, libraries and data. These variables as well as
the installation path are now set in the executable directly and
no longer configurable via project settings.
This is the first step towards an installable software. The
executables should know per installation where to find their
necessary data to execute. Project configuration needs to be
restricted to settings that really concern the specific Nominatim
installation.
