What

Brief

This is a standalone Trie data structure from the data-structure-typed collection. If you wish to access more data structures or advanced features, you can transition to directly installing the complete data-structure-typed package

How

install

npm

npm i trie-typed --save

yarn

yarn add trie-typed

snippet

Autocomplete: Prefix validation and checking

    const autocomplete = new Trie<string>(['gmail.com', 'gmail.co.nz', 'gmail.co.jp', 'yahoo.com', 'outlook.com']);

    // Get all completions for a prefix
    const gmailCompletions = autocomplete.getWords('gmail');
    console.log(gmailCompletions); // ['gmail.com', 'gmail.co.nz', 'gmail.co.jp']

File System Path Operations

    const fileSystem = new Trie<string>([
      '/home/user/documents/file1.txt',
      '/home/user/documents/file2.txt',
      '/home/user/pictures/photo.jpg',
      '/home/user/pictures/vacation/',
      '/home/user/downloads'
    ]);

    // Find common directory prefix
    console.log(fileSystem.getLongestCommonPrefix()); // '/home/user/'

    // List all files in a directory
    const documentsFiles = fileSystem.getWords('/home/user/documents/');
    console.log(documentsFiles); // ['/home/user/documents/file1.txt', '/home/user/documents/file2.txt']

Autocomplete: Basic word suggestions

    // Create a trie for autocomplete
    const autocomplete = new Trie<string>([
      'function',
      'functional',
      'functions',
      'class',
      'classes',
      'classical',
      'closure',
      'const',
      'constructor'
    ]);

    // Test autocomplete with different prefixes
    console.log(autocomplete.getWords('fun')); // ['functional', 'functions', 'function']
    console.log(autocomplete.getWords('cla')); // ['classes', 'classical', 'class']
    console.log(autocomplete.getWords('con')); // ['constructor', 'const']

    // Test with non-matching prefix
    console.log(autocomplete.getWords('xyz')); // []

Dictionary: Case-insensitive word lookup

    // Create a case-insensitive dictionary
    const dictionary = new Trie<string>([], { caseSensitive: false });

    // Add words with mixed casing
    dictionary.add('Hello');
    dictionary.add('WORLD');
    dictionary.add('JavaScript');

    // Test lookups with different casings
    console.log(dictionary.has('hello')); // true
    console.log(dictionary.has('HELLO')); // true
    console.log(dictionary.has('Hello')); // true
    console.log(dictionary.has('javascript')); // true
    console.log(dictionary.has('JAVASCRIPT')); // true

IP Address Routing Table

    // Add IP address prefixes and their corresponding routes
    const routes = {
      '192.168.1': 'LAN_SUBNET_1',
      '192.168.2': 'LAN_SUBNET_2',
      '10.0.0': 'PRIVATE_NETWORK_1',
      '10.0.1': 'PRIVATE_NETWORK_2'
    };

    const ipRoutingTable = new Trie<string>(Object.keys(routes));

    // Check IP address prefix matching
    console.log(ipRoutingTable.hasPrefix('192.168.1')); // true
    console.log(ipRoutingTable.hasPrefix('192.168.2')); // true

    // Validate IP address belongs to subnet
    const ip = '192.168.1.100';
    const subnet = ip.split('.').slice(0, 3).join('.');
    console.log(ipRoutingTable.hasPrefix(subnet)); // true
