The IntlBreakIterator class

(PHP 5 >= 5.5.0, PHP 7, PHP 8)

Einführung

A “break iterator” is an ICU object that exposes methods for locating boundaries in text (e.g. word or sentence boundaries). The PHP IntlBreakIterator serves as the base class for all types of ICU break iterators. Where extra functionality is available, the intl extension may expose the ICU break iterator with suitable subclasses, such as IntlRuleBasedBreakIterator or IntlCodePointBreakIterator.

This class implements IteratorAggregate. Traversing an IntlBreakIterator yields non-negative integer values representing the successive locations of the text boundaries, expressed as UTF-8 code units (byte) counts, taken from the beginning of the text (which has the location 0). The keys yielded by the iterator simply form the sequence of natural numbers {0, 1, 2, …}.

Since there is no excample for the usage of the IntlBreakIterator yet, I made a small one:

<?php

$text
= "Si contano i danni. Un morto a Roma, un treno ".
"deragliato e quattro feriti a Foggia, strade chiuse in tutto ".
"il sud, allagamenti e danni sulla costa ionica. A Pescara, ".
"1.500 sfollati per l'esondazione del Fosso Vallelunga. ".
"Dall'inizio dell'anno l'agricoltura ha subito un miliardo ".
"di euro di danni.";

$locale = 'it_IT';

$i = IntlBreakIterator::createSentenceInstance($locale);
$i->setText($text);

foreach(
$i->getPartsIterator() as $sentence) {
echo
$sentence . PHP_EOL . '----- next -----' . PHP_EOL;
}

?>

Result:

Si contano i danni.
----- next -----
Un morto a Roma, un treno deragliato e quattro feriti a Foggia, strade chiuse in tutto il sud, allagamenti e danni sulla costa ionica.
----- next -----
A Pescara, 1.500 sfollati per l'esondazione del Fosso Vallelunga.
----- next -----
Dall'inizio dell'anno l'agricoltura ha subito un miliardo di euro di danni.
