+ A text search configuration specifies all options necessary to transform a
+ document into a <code class="type">tsvector</code>: the parser to use to break text
+ into tokens, and the dictionaries to use to transform each token into a
+ lexeme. Every call of
+ <code class="function">to_tsvector</code> or <code class="function">to_tsquery</code>
+ needs a text search configuration to perform its processing.
+ The configuration parameter
+ <a class="xref" href="runtime-config-client.html#GUC-DEFAULT-TEXT-SEARCH-CONFIG">default_text_search_config</a>
+ specifies the name of the default configuration, which is the
+ one used by text search functions if an explicit configuration
+ parameter is omitted.
+ It can be set in <code class="filename">postgresql.conf</code>, or set for an
+ individual session using the <code class="command">SET</code> command.
+ </p><p>
+ Several predefined text search configurations are available, and
+ you can create custom configurations easily. To facilitate management
+ of text search objects, a set of <acronym class="acronym">SQL</acronym> commands
+ is available, and there are several <span class="application">psql</span> commands that display information
+ about text search objects (<a class="xref" href="textsearch-psql.html" title="12.10. psql Support">Section 12.10</a>).
+ </p><p>
+ As an example we will create a configuration
+ <code class="literal">pg</code>, starting by duplicating the built-in
+ <code class="literal">english</code> configuration:
+
+</p><pre class="programlisting">
+CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION public.pg ( COPY = pg_catalog.english );
+</pre><p>
+ </p><p>
+ We will use a PostgreSQL-specific synonym list
+ and store it in <code class="filename">$SHAREDIR/tsearch_data/pg_dict.syn</code>.
+ The file contents look like:
+
+</p><pre class="programlisting">
+postgres pg
+pgsql pg
+postgresql pg
+</pre><p>
+
+ We define the synonym dictionary like this:
+
+</p><pre class="programlisting">
+CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY pg_dict (
+ TEMPLATE = synonym,
+ SYNONYMS = pg_dict
+);
+</pre><p>
+
+ Next we register the <span class="productname">Ispell</span> dictionary
+ <code class="literal">english_ispell</code>, which has its own configuration files:
+
+</p><pre class="programlisting">
+CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY english_ispell (
+ TEMPLATE = ispell,
+ DictFile = english,
+ AffFile = english,
+ StopWords = english
+);
+</pre><p>
+
+ Now we can set up the mappings for words in configuration
+ <code class="literal">pg</code>:
+
+</p><pre class="programlisting">
+ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION pg
+ ALTER MAPPING FOR asciiword, asciihword, hword_asciipart,
+ word, hword, hword_part
+ WITH pg_dict, english_ispell, english_stem;
+</pre><p>
+
+ We choose not to index or search some token types that the built-in
+ configuration does handle:
+
+</p><pre class="programlisting">
+ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION pg
+ DROP MAPPING FOR email, url, url_path, sfloat, float;
+</pre><p>
+ </p><p>
+ Now we can test our configuration:
+
+</p><pre class="programlisting">
+SELECT * FROM ts_debug('public.pg', '
+PostgreSQL, the highly scalable, SQL compliant, open source object-relational
+database management system, is now undergoing beta testing of the next
+version of our software.
+');
+</pre><p>
+ </p><p>
+ The next step is to set the session to use the new configuration, which was
+ created in the <code class="literal">public</code> schema:
+
+</p><pre class="screen">
+=&gt; \dF
+ List of text search configurations
+ Schema | Name | Description
+---------+------+-------------
+ public | pg |
+
+SET default_text_search_config = 'public.pg';
+SET
+
+SHOW default_text_search_config;
+ default_text_search_config
+----------------------------
+ public.pg
+</pre><p>
