TextCat

TextCat is a language detection library based on n-gram text categorization. The original version is a Perl library developed by Gertjan van Noord. We maintain a PHP port of this library as a composer package.

Updating the library

In order to update the deployment library once the change has been merged into the library repository:

1. Tag the library with the new version and push the tag
2. Check on https://packagist.org/packages/wikimedia/textcat that the tag is updated
3. Update composer.json in extension/CirrusSearch
4. Test on non-production install that after composer update everything runs smooth.
5. Check out mediawiki/vendor repo.
6. Edit composer.json and put new version of wikimedia/textcat there.
7. Run composer update.
8. Make patch of the changes and put it to review on Gerrit.
