Check if NPM package names conflict.

To prevent typosquatting, NPM no longer allows names that differ from existing packages in punctuation only.

This package checks if package names conflict.

Note:
Package names are not validated. To validate package names, use validate-package-name.

Installation

yarn add package-name-conflict

npm install package-name-conflict

API

import { conflicts, conflictsAny, transform } from "package-name-conflict";

// Check if two package names conflict:

conflicts("abc.123", "Abc-123"); // true

// Return first conflicting package name in an array:

conflictsAny("abc123", ["test", "test2", "Abc-123"]); // "Abc-123"

conflictsAny("abc123", ["test", "test2"]); // false

// Transform a package name to its simplified form:

transform("Abc-123"); // "abc123"

Types:

function transform(name: string): string;

function conflicts(nameA: string, nameB: string): boolean;

function conflictsAny(name: string, names: string[]): string | false;
