CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION

Function

CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION creates a text search configuration. A text search configuration specifies a text search parser that can divide a string into tokens, plus dictionaries that can be used to determine which tokens are of interest for searching.

Important Notes

  • If only the parser is specified, then the new text search configuration initially has no mappings from token types to dictionaries, and therefore will ignore all words. Subsequent ALTER TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION commands must be used to create mappings to make the configuration useful. If COPY option is specified, the parser, mapping and configuration option of text search configuration is copied automatically.
  • If the schema name is given, the text search configuration will be created in the specified schema. Otherwise, the configuration is created in the current schema.
  • The user who defines a text search configuration becomes its owner.
  • PARSER and COPY options are mutually exclusive, because when an existing configuration is copied, its parser selection is copied too.
  • If only the parser is specified, then the new text search configuration initially has no mappings from token types to dictionaries, and therefore will ignore all words.

CREATE TEXT SEARCH CONFIGURATION name 
    ( PARSER = parser_name | COPY = source_config )
    [ WITH ( {configuration_option = value} [, ...] )];

Parameter Description

  • name

    Specifies the name of the text search configuration to be created. Specifies the name can be schema-qualified.

  • parser_name

    Specifies the name of the text search parser to use for this configuration.

  • source_config

    Specifies the name of an existing text search configuration to copy.

  • configuration_option

    Specifies the configuration parameter of text search configuration is mainly for the parser executed by parser_name or contained by source_config.

    Value range: The default, ngram, and zhparser parsers are supported. The parser of default type has no corresponding configuration_option. Table 1 lists configuration_option for ngram and zhparser parsers.
