-- SUMMARY --
|
|
|
|
The Synonyms module extends the Drupal core Taxonomy features. Currently
|
|
the module provides this additional functionality:
|
|
* support of synonyms through Field API. Any field, for which synonyms extractor
|
|
is created, attached to a term can be enabled as source of synonyms.
|
|
* synonym-friendly autocomplete widget for taxonomy_term_reference fields
|
|
* integration with Drupal search functionality enabling searching content by
|
|
synonyms of the terms that the content references
|
|
* integration with Search API. If you include synonyms of a term into your
|
|
Search API search index, your clients will be able to find content with
|
|
search keywords that contain synonyms and not actual names of terms.
|
|
|
|
-- REQUIREMENTS --
|
|
|
|
The Synonyms module requires the following modules:
|
|
* Taxonomy module
|
|
* Text module
|
|
|
|
-- SYNONYMS EXTRACTORS, SUPPORTED FIELD TYPES --
|
|
|
|
Module ships with ability to extract synonyms from the following field types:
|
|
* Text
|
|
* Taxonomy Term Reference
|
|
* Entity Reference
|
|
* Number
|
|
* Float
|
|
* Decimal
|
|
|
|
If you want to implement your own synonyms extractor that would enable support
|
|
for any other field type, please, refer to synonyms.api.php file for
|
|
instructions on how to do it, or file an issue against Synonyms module. We will
|
|
try to implement support for your field type too. If you have written your
|
|
synonyms extractor, please share by opening an issue, and it will be included
|
|
into this module.
|
|
|
|
-- INSTALLATION --
|
|
|
|
* Install as usual
|
|
|
|
-- CONFIGURATION --
|
|
|
|
* The module itself does not provide any configuration as of the moment.
|
|
Although during creation/editing of a Taxonomy vocabulary you will be able
|
|
to enable/disable for that particular vocabulary the additional functionality
|
|
this module provides, you will find additional fieldset at the bottom of
|
|
vocabulary edit page.
|
|
|
|
-- FUTURE DEVELOPMENT --
|
|
|
|
* If you are interested into converting this module from synonyms for Taxonomy
|
|
terms into synonyms for any entity types, please go to this issue
|
|
http://drupal.org/node/1194802 and leave a comment. Once we see some demand for
|
|
this great feature and the Synonyms module gets a little more mature, we will
|
|
try to make it happen.
