Usingthetext_smSocialMediaAnalyzerTheSolr managed-schema filecreatedforanindexspecifiesananalyzertousetoindexeachfield.Thedefaultanalyzerfortextfieldsis text_intl .Tospecifythe text_sm socialmediaanalyzer,youusethe gptext-config utilitytomodifytheSolr managed-schema foryourindex.

Thestepsare:

1. Createanindexusing gptext.create_index() .

2. Usethe gptext-config utilitytoeditthe managed-schema filecreatedfortheindex:

gptext-configedit-fmanaged-schema-i<index_name>

The managed-schema filecontainsa <field> elementforeachtextfield.Forexample:

<fieldname="message_text"stored="false"type="text_intl"indexed="true"/>

The type attributespecifiestheanalyzertouse. text_intl isthedefaultanalyzer.

3. Modifythe <field> elementforeachtextfieldyouwanttousetheGPTextsocialmediaanalyzerandchangethe type attributeasfollows:

<fieldname="text_search_col"indexed="true"stored="false"type="text_sm"/>

4. Savethe managed-schema file.

UsingMultipleAnalyzerChainsIfyouwanttoindexafieldusingtwodifferentanalyzerchainssimultaneously,youcandothis:

Createanewemptyindex.Thenusethe gptext-config utilitytoaddanewfieldtotheindexthatisacopyofthefieldyouareinterestedin,butwithadifferentnameandanalyzerchain.

Letusassumethatyourindex,asinitiallycreated,includesafieldtoindexnamed mytext .Alsoassumethatthisfieldwillbeindexedusingthedefaultinternationalanalyzer( text_intl ).

Youwanttoaddanewfieldtotheindex’s managed-schema thatisacopyof mytext andthatwillbeindexedwithadifferentanalyzer(saythe text_sm

analyzer).Todoso,followthesesteps:

1. Createanemptyindexwith gptext.create_index() .

2. Opentheindex’s managed-schema fileforeditingwith gptext-config .

3. Adda <field> inthe managed-schema foranewfieldthatwilluseadifferentanalyzerchain.Forexample:<fieldindexed="true"name="mytext2"stored="false"type="text_sm"/>

Bydefiningthetypeofthisnewfieldtobe text_sm ,itwillbeindexedusingthesocialmediaanalyzerratherthanthedefault text_intl .

4. Adda <copyField> in managed-schema tocopytheoriginalfieldtothenewfield.Forexample:<copyFielddest="mytext2"source="mytext"/>

5. Indexandcommitasyounormallywould.

UsingDifferentAnalyzerChainsforIndividualFieldsYoucanusedifferentanalyzersforindividualfieldsbyeditingthemanaged-schemaconfigurationfile.Forexample,ifonefieldcontainsEnglishtextandanothercontainsChineselanguagetext,youcanspecifydifferentanalyzersforthetwofields.

ExampleYouhaveatablenamed email_tbl withthefollowingdefinition:

Youwanttoindexthesixcolumnsshown— id , english_content , chinese_content , timestamp , username ,and age .

Forthecolumn english_content ,youwanttousetheEnglishlanguageanalyzercalled“text_en”forthetextsegmentation.

Forthecolumn chinese_content ,youwanttousetheinternationallanguageanalyzernamed“text_intl”.

Herearestepstoimplementthisexample:

1. CreatetheGPTextindexforthetable.

SELECT*FROMgptext.create_index('public','email_tbl','id','english_content');

2. Modifytheanalyzerforeachcolumnin managed-schema .

$gptext-configedit-idb.public.email_tbl-fmanaged-schema

3. Findtheelementforthe english_content field.

<fieldname="english_content"type="*"indexed="true"stored="true"/>

Changethe type attributeto text_en .

<fieldname="english_content"type="text_en"indexed="true"stored="true"/>

4. Findtheelementforthe chinese_content field.

<fieldname="chinese_content"type="*"indexed="true"stored="true"/>

Changethe type attributeto text_intl .

<fieldname="chinese_content"type="text_intl"indexed="true"stored="true"/>

5. Indexthetable.

SELECT*FROMgptext.index(TABLE(SELECTid,english_content,chinese_content,timestamp,username,ageFROMemail_tbl),'db.public.email_tbl');

6. Committheindex.

SELECT*FROMgptext.commit_index('db.public.email_tbl');

Thefieldtypes text_en and text_intl aredefinedin <fieldType> entriesinthemanaged-schemafileandthenreferencedinthe type attributeofthe<field> element.
