no-swears

Automagically filter out swear words in strings

Very simple package for censoring swear words from JavaScript strings, replacing offending words with "****".

Usage

npm install --save no-swears

'use strict'

const noswears = require('no-swears')

filterSwearWords(string, callback)

This is the most basic filtering function, and requires the offending string and a callback, returning the cleaned up string to the program.

let badString = "this is a bitching string"

noswears.filterSwearWords(badString, goodString => {
	console.log(goodString) // "this is a ****ing string"
})

hasSwears(string, callback)

This just returns true or false to callback depending on whether the passed string contains a swear word

let badString = "this is a bitching string"

noswears.hasSwears(badString, swearBool => {
	console.log(swearBool) // true
})

hasSwearsSync(string)

This just returns true or false synchronously to be used in true/false conditions

let badString = "this is a bitching string"

if (noswears.hasSwearsSync(badString)) {
	console.log("Has swears!") // "Has swears"!
}
