Installation

The easiest way to install TNTSearch is via composer:

composer require teamtnt/tntsearch

Requirements

Before you proceed make sure your server meets the following requirements:

  • PHP >= 5.5
  • PDO PHP Extension
  • SQLite PHP Extension
  • mbstring PHP Extension

Examples

Creating an index

In order to be able to make full text search queries you have to create an index.

Usage:

use TeamTNT\TNTSearch\TNTSearch;

$tnt = new TNTSearch;

$tnt->loadConfig([
    'driver'    => 'mysql',
    'host'      => 'localhost',
    'database'  => 'dbname',
    'username'  => 'user',
    'password'  => 'pass',
    'storage'   => '/var/www/tntsearch/examples/'
]);

$indexer = $tnt->createIndex('name.index');
$indexer->query('SELECT id, article FROM articles;');
//$indexer->setLanguage('german');
$indexer->run();

Important: "storage" settings marks the folder where all of your indexes will be saved so make sure to have permission to write to this folder otherwise you might expect the following exception thrown:

  • [PDOException] SQLSTATE[HY000] [14] unable to open database file *

Note: If your primary key is different than id set it like:

$indexer->setPrimaryKey('article_id');

Searching

Searching for a phrase or keyword is trivial

use TeamTNT\TNTSearch\TNTSearch;

$tnt = new TNTSearch;

$tnt->loadConfig($config);
$tnt->selectIndex("name.index");

$res = $tnt->search("This is a test search", 12);

print_r($res); //returns an array of 12 document ids that best match your query

//to display the results you need an additional query
//SELECT * FROM articles WHERE id IN $res ORDER BY FIELD(id, $res);

The ORDER BY FIELD clause is important otherwise the database engine will not return the results in required order

Boolean Search

use TeamTNT\TNTSearch\TNTSearch;

$tnt = new TNTSearch;

$tnt->loadConfig($config);
$tnt->selectIndex("name.index");

//this will return all documents that have romeo in it but not juliet
$res = $tnt->searchBoolean("romeo -juliet");

//returns all documents that have romeo or hamlet in it
$res = $tnt->searchBoolean("romeo or hamlet");

//returns all documents that have either romeo AND juliet or prince AND hamlet
$res = $tnt->searchBoolean("(romeo juliet) or (prince hamlet)");

Fuzzy Search

The fuzziness can be tweaked by setting the following member variables:

public $fuzzy_prefix_length  = 2;
public $fuzzy_max_expansions = 50;
public $fuzzy_distance       = 2 //represents the levenshtein distance;
use TeamTNT\TNTSearch\TNTSearch;

$tnt = new TNTSearch;

$tnt->loadConfig($config);
$tnt->selectIndex("name.index");
$tnt->fuzziness = true;

//when the fuzziness flag is set to true the keyword juleit will return
//documents that match the word juliet, the default levenshtein distance is 2
$res = $tnt->search("juleit");

Updating the index

Once you created an index you don't need to reindex it each time you make some changes to your document collection. TNTSearch supports dynamic index updates.

use TeamTNT\TNTSearch\TNTSearch;

$tnt = new TNTSearch;

$tnt->loadConfig($config);
$tnt->selectIndex("name.index");

$index = $tnt->getIndex();

//to insert a new document to the index
$index->insert(['id' => '11', 'title' => 'new title', 'article' => 'new article']);

//to update an existing document
$index->update(11, ['id' => '11', 'title' => 'updated title', 'article' => 'updated article']);

//to delete the document from index
$index->delete(12);

Geo Search

Indexing

$candyShopIndexer = new TNTGeoIndexer;
$candyShopIndexer->loadConfig($config);
$candyShopIndexer->createIndex('candyShops.index');
$candyShopIndexer->query('SELECT id, longitude, latitude FROM candy_shops;');
$candyShopIndexer->run();

Searching

$currentLocation = [
    'longitude' => 11.576124,
    'latitude'  => 48.137154
];

$distance = 2; //km

$candyShopIndex = new TNTGeoSearch();
$candyShopIndex->loadConfig($config);
$candyShopIndex->selectIndex('candyShops.index');

$candyShops = $candyShopIndex->findNearest($currentLocation, $distance, 10);
