decancer-py 0.1.0

Python bindings for decancer.

decancer_py

Python bindings for decancer.

Installation

You can get started with decancer_py by installing from PyPI:

pip install -U decancer-py

Usage

decancer_py can be used to turn sketchy text strings into their more basic counterparts.

Two functions are exported from decancer_py:

• parse - Parse a jank string to a normal string.
• contains - Check if some string contains some other string.

The contains API is altered a bit from the decancer crate.

The result from parse will always be in ALL LOWERCASE.

By default contains will attempt to parse the string and then see if the string is contained. Pass parse=False to skip the parsing step.

To be clear, using "s" in "string" is going to be more performant than calling contains due to the overhead of the FFI. The main use case is if you want to check if some regular string is in some jank string.

from decancer_py import parse


parsed = parse("𝔂ＥＥ𝓣")
assert parsed == "yeet"

from decancer_py import contains


assert contains("yeet", "ye")
assert contains("𝔂ＥＥ𝓣", "ye")
assert not contains("𝔂ＥＥ𝓣", "ye", parse=False)
