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.
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.
The name analyzer is the actual work horse of the tokenizer. It
is instantiated on a thread-base and provides all functions for
analysing names and queries.
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.
