dict_int
+
+
+
+
+ The motivation for this example dictionary is to control the indexing of
+ integers (signed and unsigned), and, consequently, to minimize the number of
+ unique words which greatly affect the performance of searching.
+
+
+
+
Configuration
+ The dictionary accepts two options:
+
+
+
+
+ The MAXLEN parameter specifies the maximum length (number of digits)
+ allowed in an integer word. The default value is 6.
+
+
+
+ The REJECTLONG parameter specifies if an overlength integer should be
+ truncated or ignored. If REJECTLONG=FALSE (default), the dictionary returns
+ the first MAXLEN digits of the integer. If REJECTLONG=TRUE, the
+ dictionary treats an overlength integer as a stop word, so that it will
+ not be indexed.
+
+
+
+
+
+
+
Usage
+
+ Running the installation script creates a text search template
+ intdict_template> and a dictionary intdict>
+ based on it, with the default parameters. You can alter the
+ parameters, for example
+
+mydb# ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY intdict (MAXLEN = 4, REJECTLONG = true);
+ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY
+
+
+ or create new dictionaries based on the template.
+
+
+ To test the dictionary, you can try
+
+mydb# select ts_lexize('intdict', '12345678');
+ ts_lexize
+-----------
+ {123456}
+
+
+ but real-world usage will involve including it in a text search
+ configuration as described in .
+ That might look like this:
+
+ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION english
+ ALTER MAPPING FOR int, uint WITH intdict;
+

dict_xsyn
+
+
+
+
+ The Extended Synonym Dictionary module replaces words with groups of their
+ synonyms, and so makes it possible to search for a word using any of its
+ synonyms.
+
+
+
+
Configuration
+ A dict_xsyn> dictionary accepts the following options:
+
+
+
+ KEEPORIG controls whether the original word is included, or only its
+ synonyms. Default is 'true'.
+
+
+
+ RULES is the base name of the file containing the list of synonyms.
+ This file must be in $(prefix)/share/tsearch_data/, and its name must
+ end in ".rules" (which is not included in the RULES parameter).
+
+
+
+ The rules file has the following format:
+
+
+
+ Each line represents a group of synonyms for a single word, which is
+ given first on the line. Synonyms are separated by whitespace:
+
+word syn1 syn2 syn3
+
+
+
+ Sharp ('#') sign is a comment delimiter. It may appear at any position
+ inside the line. The rest of the line will be skipped.
+
+
+
+
+ Look at xsyn_sample.rules, which is installed in $(prefix)/share/tsearch_data/,
+ for an example.
+
+
+
+
+
Usage
+mydb=# SELECT ts_lexize('xsyn','word');
+ts_lexize
+----------------
+{word,syn1,syn2,syn3)
+
+ Change dictionary options:
+
+mydb# ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY xsyn (KEEPORIG=false);
+ALTER TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY
