npm install cldpreA fork of dachev/node-cld with pre-built binaries for OSX and Linux.
Language detection for Javascript. Based on the CLD2 (Compact Language Detector) library from Google.
Highly optimized for space and speed. Runs about 10x faster than other libraries. Detects over 160 languages. Full test coverage. Runs on Linux, OS X, and Windows.
``bash`
$ npm install cld
Linux users, make sure you have g++ >= 4.8. If this is not an option, you should be able to install node-cld 2.4.4 even with an older g++ build.
js
const cldpre = require('cldpre');// As a promise
cldpre.detect('This is a language recognition example').then((result) => {
console.log(result);
});
// In an async function
async function testCld() {
const result = await cldpre.detect('This is a language recognition example');
console.log(result);

js
const cldpre = require('cldpre');
const text = 'Това е пример за разпознаване на Български език';
const options = {
isHTML : false,
languageHint : 'BULGARIAN',
encodingHint : 'ISO_8859_5',
tldHint : 'bg',
httpHint : 'bg'

Detect can be called leveraging the node callback pattern. If options are provided, the third parameter should be the callback.
javascript
const cldpre = require('cldpre');cldpre.detect('This is a language recognition example', (err, result) => {
console.log(result);
});
`Options
#### isHTML
Set to true if the string contains HTML tags
#### languageHint
Pass a LANGUAGES key or value as a hint
#### encodingHint
Pass an ENCODINGS value as a hint
#### tldHint
Pass top level domain as a hint
#### httpHint
Pass an HTTP "Content-Encoding" value as a hint
Warning
Once the module has been installed, the underlying C sources will remain in the deps/cldpre` folder and continue to occupy considerable space. This is because they will be required if you ever need to run npm rebuild. If you are under severe constraints you can delete this folder and reclam >100MPrebuilds
This fork allows pre-built binaries to be bundled with the NPM package using prebuildify and prebuildify-cross.After checking out this repository, compiling the prebuilt binaries on Mac OS X (darwin) would be done as follows:
`
prebuildify --napi --strip
prebuildify-cross -i centos7-devtoolset7 --napi --strip
This will generate
and prebuilds/darwin-x86 binaries. When publishing, the cldpre module contains the prebuilds/ contents which are loaded by node-pre-gyp` as required by the current platform. Falls back to rebuilding if prebuild for the current platform is not found.
