Members

NameTypeDescription
mode (optional)WordsMode | undefined

"safe" unless you say "unfiltered". Safe fetches only files that hold none of what it leaves out, and so fetches less; unfiltered fetches one file more for each piece, and gives everything.

block (optional)readonly string[] | undefined

Readings and written forms to leave out, on top of the mode. A reading that several words share names all of them. Applied only when given.

allow (optional)readonly string[] | undefined

Readings and written forms to keep and nothing else, on top of the mode and the block list. Applied only when given; an empty list keeps none.

limit (optional)number | undefined

The most words to give, and so the most pieces of the dictionary to fetch: 10 unless given, and no more than 20.

Examples

import type { FindOptions } from "@johnmorrisdotca/jisho/words";

const options: FindOptions = { limit: 5, mode: "safe" };
console.log(options.limit);
5
