Note: The FRC and Marat are handled as individual documents, so one document per file. The Rev Law, AP, and Frantext18th databases are evaluated as" divs", so file/volume is split in the load procedure on div1s and/or div2s reported with appropriate metadata.

Default search binds search terms with AND, which means you must have at least 1 instance of each search term in matching documents or it will return 0 results. Checking the" OR search" checkbox changes search term to OR. This will typically return many more documents but will start with those with the most relevant matches to your query. You can put in your own operators by leaving the OR box unchecked and using upper case operators such as (no quotes):" conspirateurs AND aristocrates OR étrangères AND royalistes". Limit sets the number of hits displayed. You can set this to 0 to get all results which is not advised for OR searches given the number of results you can get.

The results show the author, title, year, followed by the score (see below), the ID number which is a link to the PhiloLogic4 table of contents, the word Search which is a link that will search the document for the words you put in the query box (using an OR operator), and a Internet Archive identifier which will go to the first page of the document. Note that the IA does support word and phrase searching in documents, so you can use that to find instances of your words in the page images.

This is using Python Whoosh. The index is generated from the words indexed by the PhiloLogic4 load, which have been stemmed and had accented removed. I have now included the optional show snippets, since we are using a variety of databases. Results are sorted by default score ( BM25).


The whoosh index is generated using the PhiloLogic4 data files in words_and_philo_ids which are generated at load time using Clovis' Text PreProcessing Library. There is a simple script run from the data directory of the PhiloLogic4 database you want to use under Whoosh. In this instance (script), we're loading from a list (of four) databases. This reads all of the files in words_and_philo_ids and outputs structured data which are then put into the Whoosh indexer. Sample text preprocessing arguments:
preproc = PreProcessor(
        modernize=True,
        is_philo_db=True,
        text_object_type="doc",
        language="french",
        ascii=True,
        min_word_length=2,
        workers=16)
This is then applied to generate index data using a standard schema
schema = Schema(filename=TEXT(stored=True), author=TEXT(stored=True),
            title=TEXT(stored=True), date=TEXT(stored=True), year=TEXT(stored=True),
            philoid=TEXT(stored=True), divdate=TEXT(stored=True), divhead=TEXT(stored=True),
            philodbname=TEXT(stored=True), content=TEXT(stored=True, analyzer=myan)
From a list of Philo4 databases
philodirs=["/var/www/html/intertextual_hub/journaux_de_marat/",
       "/var/www/html/philologic/revlawbaudoin/",
   "/var/www/html/philologic/frc1787-99rev2"]
we extract the metadata and text content from the returned objects and load them into the Whoosh index.
for text_object in preproc.process_texts(files2process):
        textobject ="".join(text_object)
        philoid = text_object.metadata.get(" philo_id")
        author = text_object.metadata.get(" author")
        title = text_object.metadata.get(" title")
        date = text_object.metadata.get(" create_date")
        divdate = text_object.metadata.get(" create_date")
        divhead = text_object.metadata.get(" head")
        year = text_object.metadata.get(" year")
        filename = text_object.metadata.get(" filename")
        index_writer.add_document(philoid=philoid, author=author, title=title, date=date, year=year, filename=filename, divdate=divdate, divhead=divhead, content=textobject)
We will replicate this basic procedure for all of the operations for the Intertextual Hub.
