## 52.57. `pg_ts_config`

[]()

 The `pg_ts_config` catalog contains entries representing text search configurations. A configuration specifies a particular text search parser and a list of dictionaries to use for each of the parser's output token types. The parser is shown in the `pg_ts_config` entry, but the token-to-dictionary mapping is defined by subsidiary entries in [`pg_ts_config_map`](catalog-pg-ts-config-map.html).

PostgreSQL's text search features are described at length in [Chapter 12](textsearch.html).
