Brian,
you have two options:
1. Use your own parser (just modify default)
2. Use replace function, like
postgres=# select to_tsvector( replace('qw/er/ty','/',' '));
to_tsvector
----------------------
'er':2 'qw':1 'ty':3
(1 row)

I have some data that can be searched, and it looks like the parser is making
some assumptions about the data that aren't true in our case and I'm trying to
figure out how to exclude a token type. I haven't been able to find the
answer to my question so far, so I thought I would ask here.
The data I have are english words, and sometimes there are words separated by a
/ without spaces. The parser finds these things and tokenizes them as files.
I'm sure in some situations that's the right assumption, but based on my data,
I know there will never be a file name in the column.
For example instead of the parser recognizing three asciiword it recognizes one
asciiword and one file. I'd like a way to have the / just get parsed as blank.
db=# select * from ts_debug('english','maybe five/six');
alias | description | token | dictionaries | dictionary |
lexemes
-----------+-------------------+----------+----------------+--------------+------------
asciiword | Word, all ASCII | maybe | {english_stem} | english_stem |
{mayb}
blank | Space symbols | | {} | |
file | File or path name | five/six | {simple} | simple |
{five/six}
(3 rows)
I thought that maybe I could create a new configuration and drop the file
mapping, but that doesn't seem to work either.
db=# CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION public.testd ( COPY = pg_catalog.english
);
CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION
db=# ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION testd DROP MAPPING FOR file;
ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION
db=# SELECT * FROM ts_debug('testd','mabye five/six');
alias | description | token | dictionaries | dictionary |
lexemes
-----------+-------------------+----------+----------------+--------------+---------
asciiword | Word, all ASCII | mabye | {english_stem} | english_stem |
{maby}
blank | Space symbols | | {} | |
file | File or path name | five/six | {} | |
(3 rows)
Is there anyway to do this?
Thanks for the help in advance. I'm running 8.4.4
Regards,
Oleg
