Node.js trie implementation based on a Minimal Acyclic Finite-State Automata
Node.js trie implementation based on a Minimal Acyclic Finite-State Automata.
Implementation based on "Incremental Construction of Minimal Acyclic Finite-State Automata" by Jan Daciuk, Stoyan Mihov, Bruce W. Watson and Richard E. Watson.
Installation
npm install dtrie
API
Class Node
new Node([id])
- id: overwrite the generated id
Construct a new node.
node.id
Node's id, unique to each node.
node.letters
Node's transitions.
node.hasChild(letter)
- letter: transition label
Return true if this node has a child for the given transition.
node.child(letter)
- letter: transition label
Return the node child.
node.pathExists(path)
- path: a word to follow
Check if a path exists from this node to a terminal node.
node.isTerminal()
Return true if the current node is a terminal node.
Class Automata
This class is a subclass of Node.
new Automata()
Construct a new automata.
automata.addAll(words)
- words: an alphabetically sorted list of lowercase words
Populate the automata from an alphabetically sorted list of lowercase words. This method should only be called once per automata.
automata.contains(word)
- word: the word to lookup
Return true if the automata recognize the given word.
automata.getNumNodes()
Return the number of nodes in the automata.
