Php library that converts search queries into words, phrases, hashtags, mentions, etc.

This library supports a simple search query standard. It is meant to support the most common search combinations that a user would likely enter into your website search box or dashboard application. It intentionally limits the more complex nested capabilities that you might expect from SQL builders, Lucene, etc.

Tokenizer
---------

[](#tokenizer)

Tokens are split on whitespace unless enclosed in double quotes. The following tokens are extracted by the `Tokenizer`:

```
class Token implements \JsonSerializable
{
    const T_EOI              = 0;  // end of input
    const T_WHITE_SPACE      = 1;
    const T_IGNORED          = 2;  // an ignored token, e.g. #, !, etc.  when found by themselves, don't do anything with them.
    const T_NUMBER           = 3;  // 10, 0.8, .64, 6.022e23
    const T_REQUIRED         = 4;  // '+'
    const T_PROHIBITED       = 5;  // '-'
    const T_GREATER_THAN     = 6;  // '>'
    const T_LESS_THAN        = 7;  // '
