SwishResult->stem — Stems the given word
This function is EXPERIMENTAL. The behaviour of this function, the name of this function, and anything else documented about this function may change without notice in a future release of PHP. Use this function at your own risk.
Stems the word based on the fuzzy mode used during indexing. Each result object is linked with its index, so the results are based on this index.
The word to stem.
Returns array containing the stemmed word variants (usually just one).
Throws SwishException on error.
Example#1 Basic example
<?php
try {
$swish = new Swish("ext/swish/tests/index.swish-e");
$results = $swish->query("testing OR others");
if ($result = $results->nextResult()) {
var_dump($result->stem("testing")); //the results fully depend on the stemmer used in th index
var_dump($result->stem("others"));
}
} catch (SwishException $e) {
echo "Error: ", $e->getMessage(), "\n";
}
?>
The above example will output something similar to:
array(1) {
[0]=>
string(4) "test"
}
array(1) {
[0]=>
string(5) "other"
}
