Obscenity

An obscene language/profanity detector.

⚠️ WARNING: This repository contains materials that some may find offensive. That's intentional.

This package uses the List of Dirty, Naughty, Obscene, and Otherwise Bad Words along with few custom dictionaries. It also takes some ways of profanity obfuscation (such as leetspeak) into account. It's all done to build the worst regular expression publicly available.

How to use

The package is available on npmjs.com and can be installed using npm:

npm i @achivx/obscenity

Then it can be used as follows:

const obscenity = require("@achivx/obscenity");

obscenity.detect("Scunthorpe (/ˈskʌnθɔːrp/) is an industrial town in the North Lincolnshire district of Lincolnshire, England.")
// -> undefined

obscenity.detect('The town\'s name contains the substring "cunt".')
// -> ["cunt"]
