how tokenizers are expected to work and the public API that needs to be
implemented when creating a new tokenizer. For information on how to configure
a specific tokenizer for a database see the
-[tokenizer chapter in the administration guide](../admin/Tokenizers.md).
+[tokenizer chapter in the Customization Guide](../customize/Tokenizers.md).
## Generic Architecture
Nominatim expects two files for a tokenizer:
-* `nominiatim/tokenizer/<NAME>_tokenizer.py` containing the Python part of the
+* `nominatim/tokenizer/<NAME>_tokenizer.py` containing the Python part of the
implementation
* `lib-php/tokenizer/<NAME>_tokenizer.php` with the PHP part of the
implementation
If the tokenizer has a default configuration file, this should be saved in
the `settings/<NAME>_tokenizer.<SUFFIX>`.
-### Configuration and Persistance
+### Configuration and Persistence
Tokenizers may define custom settings for their configuration. All settings
must be prefixed with `NOMINATIM_TOKENIZER_`. Settings may be transient or
### Python Tokenizer Class
-All tokenizers must inherit from `nominatim.tokenizer.base.AbstractTokenizer`
+All tokenizers must inherit from `nominatim_db.tokenizer.base.AbstractTokenizer`
and implement the abstract functions defined there.

```sql
-FUNCTION token_addr_street_match_tokens(info JSONB) RETURNS INTEGER[]
+FUNCTION token_is_street_address(info JSONB) RETURNS BOOLEAN
```
-Return the match token IDs by which to search a matching street from the
-`addr:street` tag. These IDs will be matched against the IDs supplied by
-`token_get_name_match_tokens`. Must be NULL when the place has no `addr:street`
-tag.
+Return true if this is an object that should be parented against a street.
+Only relevant for objects with address rank 30.
```sql
-FUNCTION token_addr_place_match_tokens(info JSONB) RETURNS INTEGER[]
+FUNCTION token_has_addr_street(info JSONB) RETURNS BOOLEAN
```
-Return the match token IDs by which to search a matching place from the
-`addr:place` tag. These IDs will be matched against the IDs supplied by
-`token_get_name_match_tokens`. Must be NULL when the place has no `addr:place`
-tag.
+Return true if there are street names to match against for finding the
+parent of the object.
+
+
+```sql
+FUNCTION token_has_addr_place(info JSONB) RETURNS BOOLEAN
+```
+
+Return true if there are place names to match against for finding the
+parent of the object.
+
+```sql
+FUNCTION token_matches_street(info JSONB, street_tokens INTEGER[]) RETURNS BOOLEAN
+```
+
+Check if the given tokens (previously saved from `token_get_name_match_tokens()`)
+match against the `addr:street` tag name. Must return either NULL or FALSE
+when the place has no `addr:street` tag.
+
+```sql
+FUNCTION token_matches_place(info JSONB, place_tokens INTEGER[]) RETURNS BOOLEAN
+```
+
+Check if the given tokens (previously saved from `token_get_name_match_tokens()`)
+match against the `addr:place` tag name. Must return either NULL or FALSE
+when the place has no `addr:place` tag.
+
```sql
FUNCTION token_addr_place_search_tokens(info JSONB) RETURNS INTEGER[]
database. Must be NULL when the place has no `addr:place` tag.
```sql
-CREATE TYPE token_addresstoken AS (
- key TEXT,
- match_tokens INT[],
- search_tokens INT[]
-);
+FUNCTION token_get_address_keys(info JSONB) RETURNS SETOF TEXT
+```
+
+Return the set of keys for which address information is provided. This
+should correspond to the list of (relevant) `addr:*` tags with the `addr:`
+prefix removed or the keys used in the `address` dictionary of the place info.
+
+```sql
+FUNCTION token_get_address_search_tokens(info JSONB, key TEXT) RETURNS INTEGER[]
+```
-FUNCTION token_get_address_tokens(info JSONB) RETURNS SETOF token_addresstoken
+Return the array of search tokens for the given address part. `key` can be
+expected to be one of those returned with `token_get_address_keys()`. The
+search tokens are added to the address search vector of the place, when no
+corresponding OSM object could be found for the given address part from which
+to copy the name information.
+
+```sql
+FUNCTION token_matches_address(info JSONB, key TEXT, tokens INTEGER[])
```
-Return the match and search token IDs for explicit `addr:*` tags for the place
-other than `addr:street` and `addr:place`. For each address item there are
-three pieces of information returned:
+Check if the given tokens match against the address part `key`.
- * _key_ contains the type of address item (city, county, etc.). This is the
- key handed in with the `address` dictionary.
- * *match_tokens* is the list of token IDs used to find the corresponding
- place object for the address part. The list is matched against the IDs
- from `token_get_name_match_tokens`.
- * *search_tokens* is the list of token IDs under which to search the address
- item. It is used when no corresponding place object was found.
+__Warning:__ the tokens that are handed in are the lists previously saved
+from `token_get_name_search_tokens()`, _not_ from the match token list. This
+is an historical oddity which will be fixed at some point in the future.
+Currently, tokenizers are encouraged to make sure that matching works against
+both the search token list and the match token list.
```sql
-FUNCTION token_normalized_postcode(postcode TEXT) RETURNS TEXT
+FUNCTION token_get_postcode(info JSONB) RETURNS TEXT
```
-Return the normalized version of the given postcode. This function must return
-the same value as the Python function `AbstractAnalyzer->normalize_postcode()`.
+Return the postcode for the object, if any exists. The postcode must be in
+the form that should also be presented to the end-user.
