Ferret::Analysis::RegExpAnalyzer

Summary

Using a RegExpAnalyzer is a simple way to create a custom analyzer. If implemented in Ruby it would look like this;

class RegExpAnalyzer
  def initialize(reg_exp, lower = true)
    @lower = lower
    @reg_exp = reg_exp
  end

  def token_stream(field, str)
    if @lower
      return LowerCaseFilter.new(RegExpTokenizer.new(str, reg_exp))
    else
      return RegExpTokenizer.new(str, reg_exp)
    end
  end
end

Example

csv_analyzer = RegExpAnalyzer.new(/[^,]+/, false)

Public Class Methods

new(reg_exp, lower = true) → analyzer click to toggle source

Create a new RegExpAnalyzer which will create tokenizers based on the regular expression and lowercasing if required.

reg_exp	the token matcher for the tokenizer to use
lower	set to false if you don’t want to downcase the tokens

static VALUE
frb_re_analyzer_init(int argc, VALUE *argv, VALUE self)
{
    VALUE lower, rets, regex, proc;
    Analyzer *a;
    TokenStream *ts;
    rb_scan_args(argc, argv, "02&", &regex, &lower, &proc);

    ts = rets_new(Qnil, regex, proc);
    rets = Data_Wrap_Struct(cRegExpTokenizer, &frb_rets_mark, &frb_rets_free, ts);
    object_add(ts, rets);

    if (lower != Qfalse) {
        rets = frb_lowercase_filter_init(frb_data_alloc(cLowerCaseFilter), rets);
        ts = DATA_PTR(rets);
    }
    REF(ts);

    a = analyzer_new(ts, &re_analyzer_destroy_i, NULL);
    Frt_Wrap_Struct(self, &frb_re_analyzer_mark, &frb_analyzer_free, a);
    object_add(a, self);
    return self;
}

Public Instance Methods

token_stream(field_name, input) → token_stream click to toggle source

Create a new TokenStream to tokenize input. The TokenStream created may also depend on the field_name. Although this parameter is typically ignored.

field_name	name of the field to be tokenized
input	data from the field to be tokenized

static VALUE
frb_re_analyzer_token_stream(VALUE self, VALUE rfield, VALUE rtext)
{
    TokenStream *ts;
    Analyzer *a;
    GET_A(a, self);

    StringValue(rtext);

    ts = a_get_ts(a, frb_field(rfield), rs2s(rtext));

    /* Make sure that there is no entry already */
    object_set(&ts->text, rtext);
    if (ts->next == &rets_next) {
        RETS(ts)->rtext = rtext;
        rb_hash_aset(object_space, ((VALUE)ts)|1, rtext);
    }
    else {
        RETS(((TokenFilter*)ts)->sub_ts)->rtext = rtext;
        rb_hash_aset(object_space, ((VALUE)((TokenFilter*)ts)->sub_ts)|1, rtext);
    }
    return get_rb_token_stream(ts);
}
