how to use

Install it

npm i words-pt

and then use the API

const wordsPt = require('words-pt')

// { removeNames: true } removes names such as 'Lisboa' or 'António'
wordsPt.init({ removeNames: true }, err => {
  if (err) {
    // handle the error
    return
  }
  wordsPt.isWord('ser') // true
  wordsPt.isWord('serei') // true
  wordsPt.isWord('abafar-nos-ão') // true
  wordsPt.isWord('hello') // false

  wordsPt.randomWord() // grafonolas (any random word)
  wordsPt.randomWord('a') // amealhará (starting with 'a')
  wordsPt.randomWord('abc') // abcissa (starting with 'abc')
  // words.Pt.randomWord('abc') is equivalent to words.Pt.randomWord('abc', '*', '*')  

  // words.Pt.randomWord(beginningPart, middlePart, endPart)
  wordsPt.randomWord('ab', '*', '*') // 'abcesso'
  wordsPt.randomWord('a', 'e', '*') // 'abcesso' but not 'abade'
  wordsPt.randomWord('*', 's', '*') // 'espesso' but not 'sapato' nor 'mamas'
  wordsPt.randomWord('*', '*', 's') // 'mamas'
  wordsPt.randomWord('t', '*', 's') // 'tetas'
  wordsPt.randomWord('t', 'et', 'as') // 'tetanizarias'
  wordsPt.randomWord('se', 'o', 's') // 'seios'
  wordsPt.randomWord('sa', 'a', 'to') // 'salteamento'

  // exactly the same as randomWord, but gets all the words
  wordsPt.getArray() // array with all the words
  wordsPt.getArray('abc') // ['abcesso', 'abcessos', 'abcissa', 'abcissas']
  wordsPt.getArray('t', 'et', 'as') // ['tabuletas', 'tchetchenas', 'telefotometrias', 'telemetrias', ... ]
