[Koha] icuchain vs charmap

[dcook at prosentient.com.au]

Hi Alvaro,

I'm sure the folk at Theke would be able to provide a solid recommendation (https://theke.io/). 

I mostly support English libraries and they use the CHR (ie charmap word-phrase-utf.chr) indexing. However, libraries I support with French and Arabic use ICU (ie icuchain words-icu.xml) indexing. I think the most appropriate choice for you will probably be ICU, but I'll defer to those who support Spanish language libraries. 

In any case, if you do change that Zebra configuration, you will need to re-index your Koha data before search will work properly.

Hope that helps.

Hi

I have a doubt about which kind of index to use in koha for a mostly
spanish library.

I read some suggestions about changing

charmap word-phrase-utf.chr

with

icuchain words-icu.xml

on the default zebradb config but have no a clear idea

Regards,

Alvaro
