CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY(7)                 PostgreSQL 16.2 Documentation

NAME
       CREATE_TEXT_SEARCH_DICTIONARY - define a new text search dictionary

SYNOPSIS
       CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY name (
           TEMPLATE = template
           [, option = value [, ... ]]
       )

DESCRIPTION
       CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY creates a new text search dictionary. A
       text search dictionary specifies a way of recognizing interesting or
       uninteresting words for searching. A dictionary depends on a text
       search template, which specifies the functions that actually perform
       the work. Typically the dictionary provides some options that control
       the detailed behavior of the template's functions.

       If a schema name is given then the text search dictionary is created in
       the specified schema. Otherwise it is created in the current schema.

       The user who defines a text search dictionary becomes its owner.

       Refer to Chapter 12 for further information.

PARAMETERS
       name
           The name of the text search dictionary to be created. The name can
           be schema-qualified.

       template
           The name of the text search template that will define the basic
           behavior of this dictionary.

       option
           The name of a template-specific option to be set for this
           dictionary.

       value
           The value to use for a template-specific option. If the value is
           not a simple identifier or number, it must be quoted (but you can
           always quote it, if you wish).

       The options can appear in any order.

EXAMPLES
       The following example command creates a Snowball-based dictionary with
       a nonstandard list of stop words.

           CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY my_russian (
               template = snowball,
               language = russian,
               stopwords = myrussian
           );

COMPATIBILITY
       There is no CREATE TEXT SEARCH DICTIONARY statement in the SQL
       standard.
