Adds a mandatory section 'analyzer' to the token-analysis entries
which define, which analyser to use. Currently there is exactly
one, generic, which implements the former ICUNameProcessor.
Adds parsing of multiple variant lists from the configuration.
Every entry except one must have a unique 'id' paramter to
distinguish the entries. The entry without id is considered
the default. Currently only the list without an id is used
for analysis.
There is no need for the additional layer of indirection that
the ICUNameProcessorRules class adds. The ICURuleLoader can
fill the database properties directly.
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 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.
