What's Distance?
Distance is a Coffeescript and Javascript module for calculating distances between strings.
var distance = require "distance";
console.log(distance.sift3("banana", "fanana"));
console.log(distance.levenshtein("banana", "fanana"));
The distance string metrics currently supported are:
- Levenshtein - For accuracy
- Sift3 - For speed
To our knowledge, the implementations are the fastest variations available.
Installation
The recommended way is through the excellent npm:
$ npm install distance
Otherwise, you can check it in your repository and then expose it:
$ git clone git://github.com/awnist/distance.git node_modules/distance/
Distance is UNLICENSED.
