This object starts a indexed fulltext search

TODO: The way to set the search options could be done much more better! The computation of the set of searchable articles should not be treated in this class. It is better to compute the array of searchable articles from the outside and to pass the array of searchable articles as parameter. Avoid foreach loops.

Use object with

$options = array('db' => 'regexp', // use db function regexp 'combine' => 'or'); // combine searchwords with or

The range of searchable articles is by default the complete content which is online and not protected.

With option 'searchable_articles' you can define your own set of searchable articles. If parameter 'searchable_articles' is set the options 'cat_tree', 'categories', 'articles', 'exclude', 'artspecs', 'protected', 'dontshowofflinearticles' don't have any effect.

$options = array('db' => 'regexp', // use db function regexp 'combine' => 'or', // combine searchwords with or 'searchable_articles' => array(5, 6, 9, 13));

One can define the range of searchable articles by setting the parameter 'exclude' to false which means the range of categories defined by parameter 'cat_tree' or 'categories' and the range of articles defined by parameter 'articles' is included.

$options = array('db' => 'regexp', // use db function regexp 'combine' => 'or', // combine searchwords with or 'exclude' => false, // => searchrange specified in 'cat_tree', 'categories' and 'articles' is included 'cat_tree' => array(12), // tree with root 12 included 'categories' => array(100,111), // categories 100, 111 included 'articles' => array(33), // article 33 included 'artspecs' => array(2, 3), // array of article specifications => search only articles with these artspecs 'res_per_page' => 2, // results per page 'protected' => true); // => do not search articles or articles in categories which are offline or protected 'dontshowofflinearticles' => false); // => search offline articles or articles in categories which are offline

You can build the complement of the range of searchable articles by setting the parameter 'exclude' to true which means the range of categories defined by parameter 'cat_tree' or 'categories' and the range of articles defined by parameter 'articles' is excluded from search.

$options = array('db' => 'regexp', // use db function regexp 'combine' => 'or', // combine searchwords with or 'exclude' => true, // => searchrange specified in 'cat_tree', 'categories' and 'articles' is excluded 'cat_tree' => array(12), // tree with root 12 excluded 'categories' => array(100,111), // categories 100, 111 excluded 'articles' => array(33), // article 33 excluded 'artspecs' => array(2, 3), // array of article specifications => search only articles with these artspecs 'res_per_page' => 2, // results per page 'protected' => true); // => do not search articles or articles in categories which are offline or protected 'dontshowofflinearticles' => false); // => search offline articles or articles in categories which are offline

$search = new Search($options);

$cms_options = array("htmlhead", "html", "head", "text", "imgdescr", "link", "linkdescr"); search only in these cms-types $search->setCmsOptions($cms_options);

$search_result = $search->searchIndex($searchword, $searchwordex); // start search

The search result structure has following form Array ( [20] => Array ( [CMS_HTML] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 1 [2] => 1 ) [keyword] => Array ( [0] => content [1] => contenido [2] => wwwcontenidoorg ) [search] => Array ( [0] => con [1] => con [2] => con ) [occurence] => Array ( [0] => 1 [1] => 5 [2] => 1 ) [similarity] => 60 ) )

The keys of the array are the article ID's found by search.

Searching 'con' matches keywords 'content', 'contenido' and 'wwwcontenidoorg' in article with ID 20 in content type CMS_HTML[1]. The search term occurs 7 times. The maximum similarity between searchterm and matching keyword is 60%.

with $oSearchResults = new SearchResult($search_result, 10); one can rank and display the results
