Lexicon Interaction with CVS

  • Before updating the lexicon file lex/Jacy.rev

  • * do your normal checks

  • ** (lkb::batch-check-lexicon)

  • ** dump to tdl and flop

  • * optionally back up your existing lexicon

  • * dump the lexical database

     psql jacy
     jacy=# \copy lex to japanese/lex/Jacy.rev 
    
  • Merge using normal CVS update

  • * Check things again

  • ** load the revisions, reindex, run the grammar etc

  • ** dump the tdl

  • Update the Jacy.rev and tdl lexicon

Set Up

Set up the database as described in the Single User page, then load the lexicon from CVS.

  • Connect to the database (normally called jacy)

     psql jacy 
    
  • Create the Databases

     jacy=# \i japanese/lex/su-init.sql 
    
    • Load the definitions
     jacy=# \copy dfn from  japanese/lex/lexdb.dfn 
    
    • Load the lexical entries
     jacy=# \\copy lex from japanese/lex/Jacy.rev 
    
  • Load Jacy and set up the *lexdb-params* through the LKB Options::Set Options... menu

     ((:DBNAME "jacy") (:TYPE :SINGLE-USER)) 
    
  • Index for parsing and generation

     (lkb::new-lex-key-table lkb::*lexicon*)
     (lkb::new-semi lkb::*lexicon*)
    

ToDo

  • currently we can't delete entries, so we mark anything we want to delete with the string delete in the comment field.

Priveleges

How to allow multiple people to access the same DB:

jacy=#  GRANT ALL  ON  lex_key to bond;
GRANT
jacy=#  GRANT ALL  ON  semi_extra to bond;
GRANT
jacy=#  GRANT ALL  ON  semi_frame to bond;
GRANT
jacy=#  GRANT ALL  ON  semi_mod to bond;
GRANT
jacy=#  GRANT ALL  ON  semi_obj to bond;
GRANT
jacy=#  GRANT ALL  ON  semi_var to bond;
GRANT
jacy=# \dp
                         Access privileges for database "jacy"
