API

LazySearch.prototype.find(contents, searchKeyword) : Object[]

• contents: You can enter content such as the content of a news article or a file path or anything.
• searchKeyword: Keyword to search, search keywords do not have to be exact.

Examples

You can search even if your query is not correct, like the code below.

var lazySearch = new LazySearch();
var contents = "Ttttest apple eeeee";
var mySearchKeyword = "aple"; // <- You probably wanted to search for "Apple" :)
var result = lazySearch.find(contents, mySearchKeyword); // -> [{"_rawData":[{"char":"a","index":8},{"char":"p","index":9},{"char":"l","index":11},{"char":"e","index":12}],"contents":"apple","distance":1}]

Result: Object[]

• _rawData: LazySearch performs a search for each character. Store the character's position in _rawData.
  • char: The character found in the content.
  • index: The position of the character in the contents.
• contents: The string that most matches the search keyword.
• distance: The closer the search keyword is, the closer the distance value is to 1.
