  • minisearch

    Tiny and powerful JavaScript full-text search engine for browser and Node

    • Project mention: Character and Subsector generators for Classic Traveller, with TAS Forms! | /r/traveller | 2023-12-07

    I wrote an online catalog a while back (and I need to get back on adding graphics and products at some point). It’s written using Eleventy and the minisearch library. The source and data are available on Github if you want to see how I did things. I’m not a professional web designer either, but it was a fun project.

  • uFuzzy

    A tiny, efficient fuzzy search that doesn't suck

    • Project mention: Show HN: A fast, accurate and multilingual fuzzy search lib for the front end | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-14

    Thank you. We need more libs like that. I just researched the field yesterday and https://github.com/leeoniya/uFuzzy looked pretty good. But there is a gap in the market of such libs. Just few allow to send the whole html document, serialize and deserialize index to be used in browser, highlighting the matches is desired feature.

    Most importantly very few fuzzy search libs can get a simple substring match as a priority, which is understandable but not helpful. Imagine searching for “xample” and not having “example” among the results.

  • fuzzball.js

    Easy to use and powerful fuzzy string matching, port of fuzzywuzzy.

    • Project mention: Unlocking Advanced RAG: Citations and Attributions | dev.to | 2024-01-29

    import { ratio, } from 'fuzzball'; import { SequenceMatcher } from 'difflib'; // modified from: https://github.com/nol13/fuzzball.js/blob/773b82991f2bcacc950b413615802aa953193423/fuzzball.js#L942 function partial_ratio(str1: string, str2: string) { if (str1.length <= str2.length) { var shorter = str1 var longer = str2 } else { var shorter = str2 var longer = str1 } var m = new SequenceMatcher(null, shorter, longer); var blocks = m.getMatchingBlocks(); let bestScore: number = 0; let bestMatch: string | null = null let bestStartIdx: number = -1 for (var b = 0; b < blocks.length; b++) { var long_start = (blocks[b][1] - blocks[b][0]) > 0 ? (blocks[b][1] - blocks[b][0]) : 0; var long_end = long_start + shorter.length; var long_substr = longer.substring(long_start,long_end); var r = ratio(shorter,long_substr); if (r > bestScore) { bestScore = r; bestMatch = long_substr; bestStartIdx = long_start; } if (r > 99.5) { break; } } return { bestMatch, bestScore, bestStartIdx, } }

  • fzy.js

    A javascript port of fzy's scoring algorithm. As seen on GitHub.com!
