Fuzz

Study of a simple fuzzy string matcher, inspired by TextMate, Atom and Sublime searching

Usage

Create a new instance of Fuzz by passing an array of strings

varfuzz=newFuzz(['String','str','match']);

To make a search use the match method. The results are ordered by it's relevance according to the matching string.

fuzz.match('str');// ["str", "String"]

The result will have a meta array with detailed info about the search results. Each ResultItem will have a weight and an Item (with name and mainIndex, which is the index of the result on the main collection).

// Getting the first result, for examplefuzz.match('str').meta[0];// ResultItem {// item: Item { name: 'str', mainIndex: 2, ... },// weight: 167// }
