Relevanssi plugin to add Finnish base forms into search index using Voikko.
This plugin allows you to add base forms of Finnish words in Relevanssi search index. For example for word koirillekin, tokens koirillekin and koira are saved in the index during indexing. Learn mode by reading this article (in Finnish).
You can use bundled voikkospell binary (on a linux x64 system) to lemmatize the indexed terms.
There is also an option to use a system-wide voikkospell command line application if you have Voikko installed on your system.
It's also possible to set up an external Node.js API to access Voikko over HTTP. Using the binary or CLI application is much faster because it doesn't have the overhead of performing a HTTP request.
Special thanks to siiptuo for contributing voikkospell support for this plugin!
Enable this option to add base forms to search queries entered by users.
Enable this option to split compound words during indexing (and for user queries if the above option is enabled). For example, the word kerrostaloille is transformed into tokens kerrostaloille, kerrostalo, kerros and talo in the search index.
