Javascript plugin to perform an accent-insensitive-search
npm install accent-insensitive-search``
npm install accent-insensitive-search
`
import accentInsensitiveSearch from 'accent-insensitive-search';
accentInsensitiveSearch(value, searchIn);
`
accentInsensitiveSearch(value, searchIn) returns true if value is in searchIn (case and accent insensitive), andfalse else.
`
accentInsensitiveSearch(value, searchIn, options); can be on the form:`
{
startWith: boolean,
endWith: boolean,
}
The option startWith: true can be used if you only want to find strings starting with the search value. Otherwise, with the default option startWith: false you find strings containing the search value.
The option endWith: true can be used if you only want to find strings ending with the search value. Otherwise, with the default option endWith: false you find strings containing the search value.
The accent mapping is defined in the file accent-map.js. This is an objet of the form{ special_char: replacements }, replacements can either be a string or an array of strings.
Example: { 'é': 'e', 'ü': ['u', 'ue']}`.
If you want a mapping to be added, free to you to open an issue or contribute.
