Blasp is a Profanity Filter Package for Laravel

---

Blasp is a Laravel profanity filter package that helps detect and mask profane words. It provides profanity detection, substitution options, obfuscation, and more.

use Blaspsoft\Blasp\Facades\Blasp;

$sentence = 'Laravel News kicks ass!';
$blasp = Blasp::check($sentence);

$blasp->getSourceString();           // "Laravel News kicks ass!"
$blasp->getCleanString();            // "Laravel News kicks ***!"
$blasp->hasProfanity();              // true
$blasp->getProfanitiesCount();       // 1
$blasp->getUniqueProfanitiesFound(); // ['ass']

Besides straight matches, this package also matches various like substitution (i.e., a$$), obscured profanity (i.e., a-s-s), repeated letters, and combinations of all of them. Along with the Blasp facade, this package provides a validation rule you can use to validate form input for profanity:

$validated = $request->validate([
    'sentence' => ['blasp_check'],
]);

// If the sentence contains profanities, validation will fail.
