Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] Microfilm Numbers

2020-04-21 Thread Rachel Donahue
Hi Patsy,

I would probably put the microfilm number in as an External Document. The
Location doesn't *have* to be a URL, even if it's preferred.

From what I can tell, the Solr Standard 
Tokenizer
 (which I think is the one used for most text fields) doesn't exclude the 
apostrophe or use it as a delimiter to split the word (as it does with other 
punctuation marks), so a query for "Governor’s" won't match "Governors" and 
vice versa. I don't know of a convenient workaround (without modifying the Solr 
schema).

Searching for a term such as “Governors’” yields no hits if you spell it as 
“Governor’s”.  both terms should normalize to “Governors”, but it’s possible 
the latter is normalizing to “Governor s”

Re: [Archivesspace_Users_Group] FW: normalization in ArchivesSpace

2020-04-21 Thread Andrew Morrison
You can see what the default Solr config in ArchivesSpace does with 
these queries in this screenshot of Solr's analysis tool on a 
development system:


https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/33721187/79843129-b9549680-83b1-11ea-8d3a-670f4e84a6de.png

On the left is how it indexes Governors and on the right is how it 
handles a query for Governor's. The first step, marked "ST" in light 
grey, is the Standard Tokenizer. As you can see, it does nothing in this 
case, and passes both unchanged to the next step ("SF", the stop word 
filter, which also does nothing.)


Changing to a different tokenizer could change how apostrophes are 
handled. Or adding a stemmer might do the same and also ensure the same 
results are returned for singular and plural forms of most words. But 
these sort of customizations are language-specific. What works for 
English probably wouldn't work, and might have negative effects, for 
finding materials in Spanish, French or German. This is one of the 
advantages of using an external Solr server 
 
set up - that you can tailor it for your collections and your users. It 
also means you can run a more up-to-date version of Solr, with more and 
better options 
 (we 
use Word Delimiter Graph Filter and KStem.)
