Обсуждение: Tsearch2 custom dictionaries
Part1. I have created a dictionary called 'webwords' which checks all words and curtails them to 300 chars (for now) after running make make install I then copied the lib_webwords.so into my $libdir I have run psql mybd < dict_webwords.sql The tutorial shows how to install the intdict for integer types. How should i install my custom dictionary? Part2. The dictionary I am trying to create is to be used for searching multilingual text. My aim is to have fast search over all text, but ignore binary encoded data which is also present. (i will probably move to ignoring long words in the text eventually). What is the best approach to tackle this problem? As the text can be multilingual I don't think stemming is possible? I also need to include many none-standard words in the index such as urls and message ID's contained in the text. I get the feeling that building these indexs will by no means be an easy task so any suggestions will be gratefully recieved! Thanks... --

Once you did 'psql mybd < dict_webwords.sql' you should be able use it :)
Test it :
select lexize('webwords','some_web_word');

You're right. I'm afraid you need UTF database, but tsearch2 isn't
UTF-8 compatible :(

What's message ID ? Integer ? it's already recognized by parser.
try
select * from token_type();
Also, last version of tsearch2 (for 7.3 grab from
http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/gist/tsearch/V2/,
for 7.4 - available from CVS)
has rather useful function - ts_debug
apod=# select * from ts_debug('http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera');
ts_name | tok_type | description | token | dict_name | tsvector
---------+----------+-------------+----------------+-----------+------------------
simple | host | Host | www.sai.msu.su | {simple} | 'www.sai.msu.su'
simple | lword | Latin word | megera | {simple} | 'megera'
(2 rows)

You may write your own parser, at last. Some info about parser API:

I did test it with
select lexize('webwords','some_web_word');
lexize
-------
{some_web_word}
select lexize('webwords','some_400char_web_word');
lexize
--------
{some_shortened_web_word}
so that bit works, but then I tried
SELECT to_tsvector( 'webwords', 'my words' );
Error: No tsearch config
> Did you read http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/oddmuse/index.cgi/Gendict
yeah, i did read it - its good!
should i run:
update pg_ts_cfgmap set dict_name='{webwords}';

My database was created as unicode - does this mean I cannot use
tsaerch?!

Parser writing...scary stuff :-)
Thanks!

after loading your dictionary to db you should have it registered in
pg_ts_dict, try
select * from pg_ts_dict;
next, you need to read docs, for example
http://www.sai.msu.su/~megera/postgres/gist/tsearch/V2/docs/tsearch-V2-intro.html
how to create your configuration and specify lexem_type-dictionary
mapping;

We have no any experience with UTF, so you may better ask openfts mailing
list and read archives.
