npm install @acusti/matchmaking

yarn add @acusti/matchmaking
matchmaking
exports two functions: getBestMatch
and sortByBestMatch
.
Import them by name:
import { getBestMatch, sortByBestMatch } from '@acusti/matchmaking';
Both functions take the same payload:
type Payload = {
excludeMismatches?: boolean;
items: Array<string>;
text: string;
};
However, sortByBestMatch
returns an array of items matching the one
passed in but sorted by how close they match the passed-in text
, while
getBestMatch
just returns the text of the single closest match found
(i.e. sortByBestMatch(payload)[0]
).
The excludeMismatches
option for sortByBestMatch
allows that function to also filter the results to only include (partial) matches, where a match include fuzzy matches that are strong enough to qualify as a partial match. For example, considering a list of all states in alphabetical order, searching for the text "ma"
with excludeMismatches: true
returns:
[
'Maine', // exact match
'Maryland', // exact match
'Massachusetts', // exact match
'Kansas', // partial match
'Hawaii', // partial match
'Michigan', // partial match (further distance on 2nd letter)
'Minnesota', // partial match (further distance on 2nd letter)
'Mississippi', // partial match (further distance on 2nd letter)
'Missouri', // partial match (further distance on 2nd letter)
'Alabama', // end-of-text exact match
'Oklahoma', // end-of-text exact match
'Nebraska', // short distance from match
'Nevada', // short distance from match
'New Hampshire', // short distance from match
'New Jersey', // short distance from match
'New Mexico', // short distance from match
'New York', // short distance from match
