# incantata
|
|
|
|
incantata is a rust library that generates random (non-sensical) words according to a provided structure
|
|
|
|
there's also a cli, you can run it with `cargo r`. it will generate ten words every time you press enter
|
|
|
|
```rust
|
|
use incantata::*;
|
|
|
|
fn main() {
|
|
// structure of the language
|
|
let s = Structure {
|
|
// how many characters the onset is
|
|
onset: 1,
|
|
// allowed characters for the onset
|
|
onset_dict: CONSONANTS.chars().collect(),
|
|
|
|
// how many characters the nucleus is
|
|
nucleus: 1,
|
|
// allowed characters for the nucleus
|
|
nucleus_dict: VOCALS
|
|
.chars()
|
|
// .cycle()
|
|
// .take(VOCALS.len() * 5)
|
|
// .chain(VOCALS_ACCENTS.chars())
|
|
.collect(),
|
|
|
|
// how many characters the coda is
|
|
coda: 0,
|
|
// allowed characters for the coda
|
|
coda_dict: CONSONANTS.chars().collect(),
|
|
|
|
// minimum length of a word
|
|
min_len: 4,
|
|
// the words will be generated to be around this length
|
|
// due to the way incantata works (by combining valid syllables),
|
|
// we can't actually make a word of a given length
|
|
suggested_len: 15,
|
|
};
|
|
|
|
// generate 10 words
|
|
for _ in 0..10 {
|
|
println!("{}", s.generate());
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
