On this page you can find all versions of the php package nmapx/bmdm-soundex. It is possible to download/install these versions without Composer. Possible dependencies are resolved automatically.

FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

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 PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • 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.
