I posted earlier in pgsql-general, that I realised there’s no greek.stop under $(pg_config —sharedir)/tsearch_data
And indeed looks like stop words are maintained with to_tsvector(‘greek’, ..).
Here’s how the results compare
| t | to_tsvector('greek', t) | to_tsvector('greek_ext', t) |
|---|
| 'το τετράγωνο της υποτείνουσας ενός ορθογωνίου τριγώνου' | 'εν':5 'ορθογων':6 'τ':3 'τετραγων':2 'το':1 'τριγων':7 'υποτεινουσ':4 | 'εν':5 'ορθογων':6 'τετραγων':2 'τριγων':7 'υποτεινουσ':4 |
| 'ο γιώργος είναι πονηρός' | 'γιωργ':2 'εινα':3 'ο':1 'πονηρ':4 | 'γιωργ':2 'πονηρ':4 |
| 'ο ήλιος ο πράσινος o ήλιος που ανατέλλει' | 'o':5 'ανατελλ':8 'ηλι':2,6 'ο':1,3 'π':7 'πρασιν':4 | 'ανατελλ':8 'ηλι':2,6 'πρασιν':4 |
There’s another previous relevant patch [0] but was never merged. I’ve included these stop words and added some more (info in README.md).
For my personal projects looks like it yields much better results.
I’d like some feedback on the extension ; particularly on the installation infra (I’m not sure I’ve handled properly the permissions in the .sql files)
I’ll then try to make a .patch for this.
