CursePurse

Node.js module that keeps a dictionary of words that you define are profane in your Node app.

Module Goals

• Create a node module which stores words or phrases in a private Mongo DB collection which you can search against to see if you want your app to proceed with using that text.
• Many modules exist which use json files, but applications may then need to store bad word files in their project repo. CursePurse offloads that to a deploy or provision step, and keeps the words out of view of the public.

Installation

• Mongo must already be installed on the server you will use.
• Install NPM package (--save to update your app package.json file)

  $ npm install cursepurse --save

• Review example usage section or the test/cursepurse.js test file.

Code Conventions used

• Mongo collection is curses
• Objects created in code use name cursePurse
• Db model called from module is cursePurse
• Words or text stored in cursepurse are curse words

Test Cases with Mocha

• You may need to install the devDependencies or just install Mocha globally.
• Test file will create a new Mongo DB, collection and data to test with, then delete the data/collection/database after each run.
• Test files found in the 'test' dir can be run from command line. This command will run the Makefile which is set to use Mocha.

  $ npm test

Example Usage

Require library and open db connection.

var cursePurse = require('cursepurse');
cursePurse.dbConnect('mongodb://localhost/local');

Add a curse to the purse.

cursePurse.addCurse('new-curse-word', function (err, res) {
  ...
});

Check word to see if it's a curse.

cursePurse.isCurse(str, function(err, res){
    if (res) {
        console.log('this is banned!!!');
    } else {
        console.log('you are nice guy');
    }
});
