filter-profanity 1.0.9

The fastest python module to filter and censor obscene language from strings!

filter-profanity

filter-profanity is one of the most efficient python packages that provides functionality to censor profanity in text! The package cross-verifies text with a list of opensource profane vocabulary that you can find here.

This package can be used in many areas including chat applications, bots and anything that handles user input!

Installation

Installing filter-profanity is as easy as running pip install filter-profanity!

Usage

We've developed filter-profanity to make it as easy as possible to utilize.

Currently, filter-profanity provides three functions - censor_profanity, has_profanity and get_profanity

censor_profanity(text, optional_censor) takes in two arguments, the text that it scans for profanity and an optional censor to replace profane language with. If you do not provide a censor, we default to *. Here's an example -

from profanity import censor_profanity

print(censor_profanity("This code is definitely not sh!t"))
# Prints -
# This code is definitely not ****

has_profanity(text) takes in one argument- the text that it must check for profanity. If the provided text has any profane content, it returns True otherwise it conditionally returns False. Here's an example -

from profanity import has_profanity

print(has_profanity("This code is definitely not sh!t"))
# Prints -
# True

get_profanity(text, duplicates=False) takes two arguments - the text to return profanity from, and a boolean specifying if it should return duplicate words or not (defaults to False). If the text has any profane content, it returns a list with detected words, otherwise it returns an empty list. Here's an example -

from profanity import get_profanity

print(get_profanity("This code is definitely not sh!t sh!t"))
# Prints -
# ['sh!t']
