I want to be able to search tweets using a
human language.

We know what we want. We know where our data
is.
Now let’s see HOW we are doing to retrieve it.
How... … to translate a human language into a technical
one.
“ A retweet FROM @CameronNash23 ”
None
What’s a Lexer ? In computer science, lexical analysis is
the process of converting a sequence of characters into a sequence of tokens, i. e. meaningful character strings.
Tokens ! Now !

“ A retweet FROM @CameronNash23 ” T_SELECTOR T_RETWEET T_FROM T_USERNAME
How... … to use these tokens to generate an ElasticSearch
query.
None

It works!

And what about Doctrine ORM ? Let’s take a look
at : Doctrine\ORM\Query\Lexer
From DQL to SQL SELECT t0.id AS id1, t0.name AS
name3, t0. username AS username4, t0.email AS email5 FROM mos_users t0 WHERE t0.username = “foobar” SELECT u FROM MyProject\Model\User u WHERE u.username = ‘foobar’
77 tokens !!
Some patterns...
And a switch (true) !
Forget the Parser !

Example A trip OR A search FROM "Paris, France" OR
TO "Paris, France" BETWEEN 12/01/2013 AND 26/05/2014 A trip OR A search FROM "Paris, France" OR TO "Paris, France" BETWEEN 12/01/2013 AND 26/05/2014
Lexer to GET tokens. Parser to USE tokens.
@odolbeau On recrute ! :) MERCI !
