Php-saurus is a C-based PHP extension that incorporates Aiksaurus language bindings to your PHP installation.
If you're looking for a PHP extension that will enhance your PHP installation with language Aiksaurus bindings, the php-saurus project is certainly worth a try. Written in C by Sotirios Karavarsamis, this extension leverages the power of the Aiksaurus library - a thesaurus tool for the English language.
As an open-source extension published under the GNU General Public Licence (GPL), php-saurus comes with a few features that language enthusiasts are sure to appreciate. You can search for phonetically similar words, and generate synonyms to a word in two ways. The first option generates a single-dimensional array containing synonyms, while the second yields a two-dimensional array with synonyms grouped by word.
One of the standout features of php-saurus is its flexibility. The extension is compatible with PHP 5 or a higher version and Aiksaurus library and its development files. If you want to build Aiksaurus from source, simply download the source code from the official URL. Alternatively, check whether your distribution offers a binary release, and include the library binary and development files as required. Remember, the code works best under Linux.
Installation of php-saurus is straightforward. After downloading the source code distribution, switch to the directory and follow the steps, which involve running a series of commands. Finally, to ensure that PHP loads the library dynamically, you'll need to update php.ini. If using Apache with mod_php, don't forget to restart the server.
Testing your php-saurus installation is equally straightforward. You can test it from your PHP interpreter using either the CLI interface or Apache with mod_php. Checking Aiksaurus.php for errors is a good way to verify that installation went well – copy it to your root directory and run the script.
Overall, php-saurus is a must-have extension for anyone who needs a flexible tool that bolsters their PHP installation with language Aiksaurus bindings. Thanks to its powerful features and compatibility with PHP 5 or higher, the extension is certainly worth checking out.
