Retext-syntax-mentions-channels NPM

retext-syntax-mentions-channels

retext plugin to classify @mentions as syntax, not natural language. It also ignores chat channels like the ones used on Slack, for example #this-is-a-channel.

DISCLAIMER: This is a modified version of retext-syntax-mentions. There are some links in the documentation that are still mentioning this project as its original name.

Install

npm:

npm install retext-syntax-mentions-channels

API

`retext().use(mentions)`

Classify @mentions as source, which represent “external (ungrammatical) values” instead of natural language. This hides mentions from retext-spell, retext-readability, retext-equality, and more.
