💖 Lucy::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer — Multiple Analyzers in series 💖

okay bestie, welcome to the User Contributed Perl Documentation page for Lucy::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer(3pm) — yes that's the whole manual name, we're not being shy about it 🫶

---

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

my $schema = Lucy::Plan::Schema->new;
my $polyanalyzer = Lucy::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer->new(
    analyzers => \@analyzers,
);
my $type = Lucy::Plan::FullTextType->new(
    analyzer => $polyanalyzer,
);
$schema->spec_field( name => 'title',   type => $type );
$schema->spec_field( name => 'content', type => $type );

---

🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

So a PolyAnalyzer is literally just a series of Analyzers, and each one gets called up in turn to "analyze" the text. Like a little relay race of text-processing, no cap 🏃‍♀️💨

You've got two vibes here:

• You can hand it the Analyzers yourself, or
• you can specify a supported language, and then a PolyAnalyzer made of a CaseFolder, a RegexTokenizer, and a SnowballStemmer gets generated for you. Iconic, honestly ✨

🚨 The language parameter is DEPRECATED. Use EasyAnalyzer instead. 🚨

Here's the roster of supported languages, bestie:

en => English,
da => Danish,
de => German,
es => Spanish,
fi => Finnish,
fr => French,
hu => Hungarian,
it => Italian,
nl => Dutch,
no => Norwegian,
pt => Portuguese,
ro => Romanian,
ru => Russian,
sv => Swedish,
tr => Turkish,

🎀 CONSTRUCTORS 🎀

new

my $tokenizer    = Lucy::Analysis::StandardTokenizer->new;
my $normalizer   = Lucy::Analysis::Normalizer->new;
my $stemmer      = Lucy::Analysis::SnowballStemmer->new( language => 'en' );
my $polyanalyzer = Lucy::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer->new(
    analyzers => [ $tokenizer, $normalizer, $stemmer, ], );

Create a new PolyAnalyzer. Slay 💅

• language — An ISO code from the list of supported languages. DEPRECATED, use EasyAnalyzer instead.
• analyzers — An array of Analyzers. The order of the analyzers matters. Don't put a SnowballStemmer before a RegexTokenizer (can't stem whole documents or paragraphs – just individual words), or a SnowballStopFilter after a SnowballStemmer (stemmed words, e.g. "themselv", will not appear in a stoplist). In general, the sequence should be: tokenize, normalize, stopalize, stem. Periodt. 👑

💅 METHODS 💅

get_analyzers

my $arrayref = $poly_analyzer->get_analyzers();

Getter for "analyzers" member. She's giving accessor energy, as she should 🫶

transform

my $inversion = $poly_analyzer->transform($inversion);

Take a single Inversion as input and returns an Inversion, either the same one (presumably transformed in some way), or a new one. Mystery behavior, we love that for her 🙈

• inversion — An inversion.

👑 INHERITANCE 👑

Lucy::Analysis::PolyAnalyzer isa Lucy::Analysis::Analyzer isa Clownfish::Obj. The family tree is thriving, the lineage is immaculate, the ancestors ate 🌈
