XCI. Pspell Functions

�vod

These functions allow you to check the spelling of a word and offer suggestions.

Po�adavky

To compile PHP with pspell support, you need the aspell library, available from .

Instalace

If you have the libraries needed add the --with-pspell[=dir] option when compiling PHP.

Note to Win32 Users: win32 support is available only in PHP 4.3.3 and later versions. Also, you must have aspell 0.50 or newer installed. In order to enable this module under Windows, you must copy aspell-15.dll from the bin folder of your aspell installation to a folder where PHP will be able to find it. C:\PHP or the SYSTEM32 folder of your windows machine (Ex: C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32 or C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32) are good choices.

In response to csnyder's comment about calling aspell instead of using the aspell or pspell libs:



If you are running a low traffic site this will work fine and it's a good idea. 



If, however, you have many customers using your spell checking script, this method does not scale well and you should consider spending the time to make the libs work properly.

The Following Steps to install Aspell and Pspell to work with PHP 



Download these files 



 

Pspell Package 



 Aspell Package 



 English Dictionary 

for Aspell 



untar the files 

tar zxvf pspell-.12.2.tar.gz 

tar zxvf aspell-0.50.1.tar.gz 

tar jxvf aspell-en-0.50-2.tar.bz2 



we have to install pspell first: 



Get into the pspell-.12.2 directory 



# ./configure 

# make 

# make install 



# cd modules 

# ./add-modules 

# cd .. 

# make 

# make install 



Second we have to install Aspell: 

Get into the aspell-0.50.1 directory 



# ./configure 

# make 

# make install 



After Sucessfully compiled Apply the Dictionary 

Get into the aspell-en-0.50-2 directory 



# ./configure 



Which should output something like: 



Finding Dictionary file location ... /usr/local/lib/aspell 

Finding Data file location ... /usr/local/share/aspell 



# make 

# make install 



To Check aspell is working try this example 



Create a file test.txt add the line "I am speled wron" and save the file 



# aspell check test.txt 



from the command line. 

after the above example work. 



use --with-pspell when compiling PHP

Easy way to make a spellchecker:



<?



function spellcheck ( $string ) {

    $words = preg_split('/[\W]+?/',$string);

    $misspelled = $return = array();

    $int = pspell_new('en');

    foreach ($words as $value) {

        if (!pspell_check($int, $value)) {

            $misspelled[] = $value;

        }

    }

    foreach ($misspelled as $value) {

        $return[$value] = pspell_suggest($int, $value);

    }

    return $return;

}



?>

I had the same problems after following the detailed instructions for installing on windows but was able to solve them by doing the following:



first, I copied all the files in the data directory of the aspell install (ie. C:\Program Files\Aspell\data) to a unix machine and ran dos2unix on all of the files and then copied them back.



second, added this line before the pspell_new("en") call

pspell_config_create("en");



hope this works for you too.

Aspell Author Here.



Since Aspell 0.50, Pspell is no longer used.  It is not necessary to download and install the Pspell package, only Aspell 0.50 (or better) is required.  Aspell now provided a backwards compatibility interface for programs expecting the old Pspell interface (such as PHP).



Even though Aspell now provided a new "Aspell" interface this, the PHP Pspell interface is the one you want to use.  The Aspell PHP interface is the one used with a *very* old version of Aspell as the manual says.



Sorry if this is confusing, but it is not really my fought as I have no control over PHP development.  Eventually a new Aspell interface should be provided for PHP which uses the new Aspell interface provided with Aspell 0.50 but for now the Pspell interface will work just fine.



Note: If you wish to use an older version of Aspell (_before_ 0.50) than both Aspell and Pspell are required.

As an alternative to mucking about with the compiled-in aspell/pspell functions, which only check word by word, one could write a script that calls aspell as a shell exec to check a whole block of text: 





(there is a view-source option)



Not sure about Linux or Windows, but installing aspell on FreeBSD was trivially easy from the ports collection. No doubt such a script could be easily modified to use ispell instead if you'd rather.
