Plugin that checks for user-specified custom words #6

Closed tml428 closed 3 years ago

tml428 commented 4 years ago

Subject of the feature

Retext plugin that screens for words in a custom input list. Should be pretty similar to retext-profanities except it accepts an array of words instead of using the words defined in cuss

Problem

There seems to be no plugin that takes in custom input and checks against custom words.

Expected behavior

Plugin should accept custom words array and output warnings/errors if a match occurs when comparing target sentence and the custom word list.

Alternatives

Refactor one of the existing plugins such as retext-profanities or retext-redundant-acronyms to accept custom inputs. But they are great by themselves for their purposes so repurposing them probably isn't very wise. 😅

Hi Michelle! https://github.com/bkeepers/retext-words might be what you’re looking for, but hasn’t been updated recently.

Hi @wooorm , thanks for the pointer! Is there any plan for retext-words to get published to npm? Otherwise, what would you suggest I do if want to use the plugin in my code?

Hey, thanks for your patience.

retext-words is not maintained here. You could ask there to publish it, although I think bkeepers is doing other stuff right now. And: you can use projects from github in npm too: npm install bkeepers/retext-words Finally, you could also do something like that yourself? Update that project, publish it?
