decancer

A portable module that removes common confusables from strings without the use of Regexes. Available for Rust, Node.js, Deno, and the Browser.

Pros:

• Extremely fast, no use of regex whatsoever!
• No dependencies.
• Simple to use, just one single function.
• Supports all the way to UTF-32 code-points. Like emojis, zalgos, etc.
• While this project may not be perfect, it should cover the vast majority of confusables.

Con:

• Remember that this project is not perfect, false-positives may happen.

installation

Rust

In your Cargo.toml:

toml decancer = "1.4.0"

Node.js

In your shell:

console $ npm install decancer

In your code:

js const decancer = require('decancer');

Deno

In your code:

```ts import init from "https://deno.land/x/decancer@v1.4.0/mod.ts";

const decancer = await init(); ```

Browser

In your code:

```js import init from "https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/gh/null8626/decancer@v1.4.0/decancer.min.js";

const decancer = await init(); ```

examples

NOTE: cured output will ALWAYS be in lowercase.

JavaScript

```js const noCancer = decancer('vＥⓡ𝔂 𝔽𝕌Ňℕｙ ţ乇𝕏𝓣');

console.log(noCancer); // 'very funny text' ```

Rust

```rust extern crate decancer; use decancer::Decancer;

fn main() { let instance = Decancer::new(); let output = instance.cure("vＥⓡ𝔂 𝔽𝕌Ňℕｙ ţ乇𝕏𝓣");

assert_eq!(output, String::from("very funny text")); } ```

If you want to check if the decancered string contains a certain keyword, i recommend using this instead since mistranslations can happen (e.g mistaking the number 0 with the letter O)

JavaScript

```js const noCancer = decancer(someString);

if (decancer.contains(noCancer, 'no-no-word')) console.log('LANGUAGE!!!'); ```

Rust

```rust extern crate decancer; use decancer::Decancer;

fn main() { let instance = Decancer::new(); let output = instance.cure("vＥⓡ𝔂 𝔽𝕌Ňℕｙ ţ乇𝕏𝓣");

if instance.contains(&output, "funny") { println!("i found the funny"); } } ```
