Adding your blacklist

A blacklist is a list of strings or words that are considered banned or should be excluded from a given string/sentence.

Syntax

blacklist(...args: string[]): string[]

...args: string[] - Given strings/words to be blacklisted.

string[] - The resulting blacklist that has been filtered to only have unique items.

Throws an error if a string is not given.

import { blacklist } from '@princedev/redact';

Basic usage with two given words.

const racialBlacklist = blacklist('nigga', 'eskimo');

racialBlacklist would be ['negro', 'eskimo'].

Adding multiple given words with duplicates.

const racialArray = ['negro', 'nigga', 'black'];

const racialBlacklist = blacklist('nigga', 'eskimo', ...racialArray);

racialBlacklist would be ['negro', 'nigga', 'black', 'eskimo'], removing the duplicate item 'nigga' in the list.
