A Python library to clean swear words in strings
Project description
better_profanity
A Python library to clean swear words in strings.
Inspired from package profanity of Ben Friedland, this library only supports English language and is much faster than the original one, by using string comparison instead of regex.
Requirements
To make use of Python static tying, this package only works with Python 3.6+
.
Usage
By default, on the first .censor()
call, profanity
initializes a set of words, from profanity_wordlist.txt, to be used to compare against the input texts. This set of words will be stored in memory (~5MB+).
1. Censor swear words from a text
By default, profanity
replaces each swear words with 4 asterisks ****
.
from better_profanity import profanity
if __name__ == "__main__":
text = "You p1ec3 of sHit."
censored_text = profanity.censor(text)
print(censored_text) # You **** of ****.
2. Censor swear words with custom character
4 instances of the character in second parameter in .censor()
will be used to replace the swear words.
from better_profanity import profanity
if __name__ == "__main__":
text = "You p1ec3 of sHit."
censored_text = profanity.censor(text, '-')
print(censored_text) # You ---- of ----.
3. Check if the string contains any swear words
from better_profanity import profanity
if __name__ == "__main__":
dirty_text = "That l3sbi4n did a very good H4ndjob."
profanity.contains_profanity(dirty_text) # True
4. Censor swear words with a custom wordlist
The provided list of words will replace the default wordlist.
4 instances of the character in second parameter in .censor()
will be used to replace the swear words.
from better_profanity import profanity
if __name__ == "__main__":
text = "You p1ec3 of sHit."
custom_badwords = ['happy', 'jolly', 'merry']
profanity.load_censor_words(custom_badwords)
print(profanity.contains_profanity("Fuck you!"))
# Fuck you
print(profanity.contains_profanity("Have a merry day! :)"))
# Have a **** day! :)
