JavaScript I/O

input will be a global variable accessible in the JS context. The structure of input is the following:

interface Input = {
  text: string,
  textbox: TextBox
}

where

interface TextBox {
  // TopLeft.x, TopLeft.y, TopRight.x, TopRight.y, BottomRight.x, BottomRight.y, BottomLeft.x, BottomLeft.y
  vertices: number[], 
  orientation: "Up" | "Left" | "Right" | "Down",
  lines: {
      words: Word[]
  }
}
​
interface Word {
  // TopLeft.x, TopLeft.y, TopRight.x, TopRight.y, BottomRight.x, BottomRight.y, BottomLeft.x, BottomLeft.y
  vertices: number[],
  value: string, // text in the word
  symbols: Symbol[]
}
​
interface Symbol {
  // TopLeft.x, TopLeft.y, TopRight.x, TopRight.y, BottomRight.x, BottomRight.y, BottomLeft.x, BottomLeft.y
  vertices: number[],
  value: string // character in the symbol
}

The script is expected to write the output to the result value in the global scope. If not, an exception will be raised. What is assigned to resultwill be in the content field of the output response.

    • max_delete (number) Optional Amount of character that can be skipped in the return string

    • max_l_dist (number) Optional Maximum Levenshtein distance allowed between the pattern and return string

Return Value:

• matches (Match[]): Array of matches

  • start (number): Start position of the match

  • end (number): End position of the match

  • dist (number): Levenshtein distance between the matched part and the pattern
