case and accent insensitive search under Python ?
Hi,
I'm considering to migrate to postgresql... ( still examining the pro/con )
It seem that is possible to make a search that is case and accent
insensitive.
|I've dig https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/textsearch-intro.html
and other resources,|
|but I didn't find yet an example that demonstrate it. (from Python
would be even better :) )
Just to see if it's easy to implement.

|Thanks.|

The text search functionality is already case-insensitive, but not
accent-insensitive (at least in the common built-in configurations).
To make it accent-insensitive, you can set up a custom configuration
using the "unaccent" module. See
