API

Function Description
createTrie(items, textKey, options) Creates a trie containing the given items.
getMatches(query, options) Returns items that match the given query.

createTrie(items, textKey, options)

Creates a trie containing the given items.

Parameter Type Required Description
items Array Array of items. Every item must be an object.
textKey String Key that every item in items must have.
item will be inserted to the trie based on item[textKey].

Possible options:

Option Type Default Description
comparator Function none Items comparator, similar to Array#sort's compareFunction.
It gets two items, and should return a number.

Note: Matches in the first word (let's call it "group 1") are prioritized over matches in the second word ("group 2"), which are prioritized over matches in the third word ("group 3"), and so on.
comparator will only sort the matches within each group.

When comparator is not specified, items within each group will preserve their order in items.
splitRegex RegExp /\s+/ Used to split items' textKey into words.

getMatches(query, options)

Returns items that match the given query.

Parameter Type Required Description
query String Non-blank query string.

If query is blank, [] is returned.
options Object Additional query options.

Possible options:

Option Type Default Description

For example: getMatches('me', { limit: 3 }) will return no more than 3 items that match 'me'.
