FowlJS

FowlJS is a JavaScript library for filtering profanity.

Examples

• Example Implemenation

Wiki and Other Resources

• FowlJS Wiki

Usage

• download /dist/fowl.js or /dist/fowl.min.js and include in your project, for example:

// non-minified
<script src="path/to/your/fowl.js" type="text/javascript"></script> 

// minified
<script src="path/to/your/fowl.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

• invoke fowl.isTextFowl(yourText) for example:

var myText = 'my text contains the word ass and FowlJS will tell me all the fowl shit, I mean text.'
var fowlText = fowl.isTextFowl(myText); // will return ['ass', 'shit']

Development Getting Started

• npm install - installs the needed module dependencies.
• npm test - runs the unit tests via phantomjs, karma, mocha, and chai
• grunt - runs the following tasks in order (note, grunt does this for you, you don't have to):

  • clean - deletes the JavaScript files out of the dist folder.

  • jshint - lints the given JavaScript files for warnings, errors, and general syntax.

  • browserify - loads all the required modules the library needs, concatenates everything, and places the finished fowl.js file inside the dist folder.

Contribution Guidelines

Editor

We have a .editorConfig file that contains all of our styling for any editor. Whatever editor you choose to use, please download the extension/addon/plugin you need in order for your editor to pick up and implement the file.

• Here are a few links to popular editor plugins for editorconfig:
  • Sublime Text
  • Atom
  • Notepad++
  • emacs
  • vim
  • Visual Studio
  • Everything else
  • If you really can't find a plugin or add-on let's talk.
    Note: JetBrains maintains their own editorconfig internal plugin.

Code/Syntax/Logic

• We follow JSDoc specifications for comments so for example, please try and adapt/mimic the following:

/**
 * TypeOfFunction(utility, constructor, factory) for doing x,y,z
 * @param {type} nameOfParam: what the param does.
 */
this.explanationFactory = function(nameOfParam) {

};

Branching

• Our workflow revolves around 2 main branches: master and develop.
• develop is a direct branch off of master.
• All feature and bugfix branches will branch off of develop and be prepended with feature/ for feature branches and bugfix/ for bugfix branches. The name of your feature or bugfix must be dash separated, for example:

$ git checkout -b feature/<name-of-my-feature> develop

$ git checkout -b bugfix/<name-of-my-bugfix> develop

Suggested Workflow

• create a branch for your work:
  $ git checkout -b <type of branch>/<name-of-feature-or-bugfix> develop

• run the unit tests, ensuring that 100% test coverage is maintained:
  $ npm test

• run the tasks you need, ensuring no errors occur and that the dist folder is updating with the correct files locally:
  $ grunt

• commit your work and push to your feature/bugfix branch.

• create a pull request to merge your feature/bugfix branch into develop.

Please Note

• All new functions must be accompanied by the appropriate unit testing, and PR's will only be approved if all tests pass, and the addition maintains 100% test coverage across the board.
• All new code must pass through the jshint linter (automatically run when you run grunt).

Finally

• Have fun, write some quality code, and innovate!
