word_filter
A Word Filter for filtering text.
A Word Filter is a system for identifying and censoring specific words or phrases in strings. Common usage includes censoring vulgar or profane language and preventing spam or vandelism in user-provided content.
The Word Filter implementation provided here allows for advanced filtering functionality, including:
- Finding and censoring filtered words.
- Ignoring words that are considered "exceptions".
- Allowing specification of "aliases", i.e. strings that can replace other strings (for example, an alias could be created to replace the letter "a" with the character "@").
- Ignoring specified separators (such as spaces or other characters) between letters of filtered words.
A Word Filter is useful for checking and altering user-generated text in chat applications, online games, and many other contexts.
Usage
An example of a basic Word Filter is as follows:
use WordFilterBuilder;
let filter = new.words.build;
assert_eq!;
See the documentation for more in-depth usage.
