See SIMILAR NAMES? #36

Closed RaphCodec closed 8 months ago

RaphCodec commented 9 months ago

Is there a way to see what the similiar names are for the below code? My goal is to see the similiar names and use fuzzy matching to potentially find the correct street name.

from geosupport import GeosupportError

try:
    g.get_street_code(borough='MN', street='Wort Street')
except GeosupportError as e:
    print(e) # 'WORT STREET' NOT RECOGNIZED. THERE ARE 010 SIMILAR NAMES.

I realized that you made it a seperate package. https://github.com/ishiland/geosupport-suggest.

Thanks

Sorry for the late response, but yes that package will help. The part you are interested in is here:
