FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.

Beider-Morse + Daitch-Mokotoff Soundex Algorithm
This is a fork of the algorithm developed by Alexander Beider and Stephen P. Morse for phonetic matching of names and words. This algorithm generates less quantity of false hits comparing to soundex() and methaphone(). Also it's possible to use this algorithm for some non-latin alphabets without a transliteration.

Information
Currently there are 16 languages supported: Czech, Dutch, English, French, German, Greek (and Greek Latin), Hebrew, Hungarian, Italian, Latvian, Polish, Portuguese, Romanian, Russian (latin and cyrillic), Spanish, Turkish. Also BMPM (Beider-Morse Phonetic Matching) and BMDM as it's derivative can parse Hebrew names by Ashkenazic and Sephardic rules.
Differences
This fork's goal is to get rid of deprecated and global functions, global variables and to represent algorithm in OOP-like style. Also there were implemented some fixes and modifications for unification purposes. While exceeding the limits of procedural code now it's possible to include algorithm in frameworks and third-parity applications without a headache. Latvian language experimental support added.
Requirements
PHP 5.4+; mbstring extenstion
Performance
I strongly encourage to use PHP 7.0 and newer due to major performance enhancement since 5.x versions especially in array processing which is crucial for BMDM. Also there's built-in caching support - make sure that ./runtime directory is writable and let BMDM precompile and cache it's runtime rules. Here're charts of performance with and without caching. Also caching lowers I/O load. Test results available here .
Usage
Include BMDM.php or better use composer to install: composer require dautkom/bmdm
Ashkenazic and Sephardic support
Multiple languages in one string
Different languages matching
Modification
If you are going to modify rules - disable cache for development process and cleanup ./runtime directory afterwards. Otherwise expired cached data will be loaded.
