Hi,

Add the JAR in the web application (tomcat/webapps/constellio/WEB-INF/lib).

And your analyzer to the list in the "Server Management > Analyzers" menu (ref. http://wiki.constellio.com/index.php/Analysers).

You can now customize the "text" field type in the "Server Management > Field Types" menu (ref. http://wiki.constellio.com/index.php/Field_Types).

Make sure the default search search field in your collection uses the "text" field type (ref. http://wiki.constellio.com/index.php/Index_Fields).

Reindex your collection (Reindex All : http://wiki.constellio.com/index.php/Manage_a_Collection).

Regards,

Nicolas

Thanks Nicolas,
It seems that it is not too complicated to add the JAR using Constellio.

What about building the JAR itself? Is there a documentation or a procedure to build this Arabic Analyzer ?
Currently we have our Arabic Analyzer in Perl. Migration to Java is not an issue. I think the challenge would be in putting it within the framework of Constellio.

Regards,
Daoud

Hi Daoud,

Most of the search features use Apache Solr in Constellio, including the support for analyzers. If you want to integrate a custom analyzer, you can start with the following documentation http://wiki.apache.org/solr/AnalyzersTokenizersTokenFilters

There is also the following on Arabic support in Solr : http://wiki.apache.org/solr/LanguageAnalysis#Arabic
