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.
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.
- 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.
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.
