Synonym implementation in General Search #75

Open TheGrandVizier opened 7 years ago

TheGrandVizier commented 7 years ago

We need to implement the synonym system that is used in BHP, or similar system based on the values available in BHP. This may be easier with clearMash.

When a person searches for Istanbul, he should also get results for Constantinople. The same applies to many other places / cities / towns. It may also apply to last names with multiple spelling variations. The data exists in BHP.

Front end issues for this: https://github.com/Beit-Hatfutsot/dbs-front/issues/24 https://github.com/Beit-Hatfutsot/dbs-front/issues/111

@TheGrandVizier - I think some more work is needed on the frontend issue to be sure of what's needed in backend (I think it's Beit-Hatfutsot/dbs-front#111)
