Thank you Bruce,
as an intermediate solution, so that people, who have the same problem and
search the mailing archives, can get at least some way to overcome this
issue, I am rewriting such emails when building tverctor, and use rewrite
the tsearch queries as well:
code from a function, that builds the tsvector:
select (select string_agg(
case when CASE WHEN n in ( 1, s ) -- all special outer
chars should be escaped
THEN c = ANY
('{.,!,#,$,%,&,'',*,+,/,=,?,_,`,"{",|,"}",~,^,-}'::text[])
ELSE c = ANY
('{!,#,$,%,&,'',*,+,/,=,?,`,"{",|,"}",~,^}'::text[])
END
then 'BCHR' || ascii(c)::text || 'END'
else c
end, '')
from ( select row_number() over() as n, count(1) over() as s, c
from regexp_split_to_table(split_part(p, '@', 1 ), '') as e(c) ) as ee
) || '@' || split_part(p, '@', 2 )
into email
from ( select p_customer_user_row.email::text as p ) as e;
return to_tsvector('simple', coalesce( p_customer_user_row.first_name,
'') ) ||
to_tsvector('simple', coalesce( p_customer_user_row.last_name, '')
) ||
to_tsvector('simple', coalesce( p_customer_user_row.customer_id,
'') ) ||
to_tsvector('simple', coalesce( email, '') );
code from a function, that builds a tsquery:
RETURN (select to_tsquery('simple',
string_agg(
case when p ~ '^[^@]+@[^@]+$' -- has only one @ inside
then (select string_agg(
case when CASE WHEN n in ( 1, s ) --
all special outer chars should be escaped
THEN c = ANY
('{.,!,#,$,%,&,'',*,+,/,=,?,_,`,"{",|,"}",~,^,-}'::text[])
ELSE c = ANY
('{!,#,$,%,&,'',*,+,/,=,?,`,"{",|,"}",~,^}'::text[])
END
then 'BCHR' || ascii(c)::text ||
'END'
else c
end, '')
from ( select row_number() over() as n,
count(1) over() as s, c from regexp_split_to_table(split_part(p, '@', 1 ),
'') as e(c) ) as ee
) || '@' || split_part(p, '@', 2 )
else (select string_agg(token, ' & ')
from ( select unnest(lexemes) || ':*' as
token
from ts_debug('simple', p)
) as g
)
end, ' & ' )
)
from regexp_split_to_table(btrim(search_text), E'\\s+') as s(p)
);
