  • include_reading: outputs MeCab's metadata reading.
  • include_form: outputs MeCab's metadata inflected_type, inflected_form, and base_form.

For more details, see the reference.

New options for the TokenNgram tokenizer

TokenNgram now accepts these new options:

  • unify_alphabet: TokenNgram("unify_alphabet", false) will work same as TokenBigramSplitAlpha.
  • unify_symbol: TokenNgram("unify_symbol", false) will work same as TokenBigramSplitSymbol.

Groonga now can grab plugins from multiple directories

A new environent variable GRN_PLUGINS_PATH is available to detect plugins from multiple directories. It is a list of path to directories, separated with ; (on Windows) or : (on other platforms).

GRN_PLUGINS_PATH has priority higher than the existing GRN_PLUGINS_DIR.

Note that this does not work on Windows currently.
