hashtag-extracter v1.0.7

HashTag Extracter

Description

I created this package because of a problem i faced. Basically, it returns an array after you pass in a string/sentence to it. This returned array contains elements that are a word in your sentence as hashtag.

How it works

You pass in a starter(what each word should start with), an array of what should be used to signify that it should be a new hashtag and your sentence.

The content of the returned array are your words but grouped as array elements beginning with the starter you specified.

Eg. if you specify "/" as the starter it would start all words in the array with "/" or if its "#" it starts all words like hashtags

Sample usage

First install from npm via

npm install hashtag-extracter

import extracter from 'hashtag-extracter';

const starter="#";
const triggers=["#", " ", "/"];
const string="A boy is a girl ##awoman day# /go / #gsh";


console.log(extracter(starter, triggers, string))

Result will be:

[
  '#A',    '#boy',
  '#is',   '#a',
  '#girl', '#awoman',
  '#day',  '#go',
  '#gsh'
]

You do not necessarily need to console.log your data, use the output immediately
