Testing a Configuration

The function ts_debug allows easy testing of a text search configuration.

ts_debug([ config regconfig, ] document text,
         OUT alias text,
         OUT description text,
         OUT token text,
         OUT dictionaries regdictionary[],
         OUT dictionary regdictionary,
         OUT lexemes text[])
         returns setof record

ts_debug displays information about every token of document as produced by the parser and processed by the configured dictionaries. It uses the configuration specified by config, or default_text_search_config if that argument is omitted.

ts_debug returns one row for each token identified in the text by the parser. The columns returned are:

  • alias text: short name of the token type
  • description text: description of the token type
  • token text: text of the token
  • dictionaries regdictionary[]: dictionaries selected by the configuration for this token type
  • dictionary regdictionary: the dictionary that recognized the token, or NULL if none did
  • lexemes text[]: the lexeme(s) produced by the dictionary that recognized the token, or NULL if none did; an empty array ({}) means the token was recognized as a stop word

Here is a simple example:

postgres=# SELECT * FROM ts_debug('english','a fat  cat sat on a mat - it ate a fat rats');
