feat: Phase 1 — extract the client (web SPA + desktop) to dtoro/oikos-web
Problem: the hexagonal refactor churns the backend tree for nine more
phases; the UI delivery stack (web/ SPA, cmd/desktop Wails wrapper,
compose/web image) must move to its own repo first so doc/layout
rewrites land once on a backend-only tree.

Change:
- New repo git.hubris.network/dtoro/oikos-web (v0.33.0): web/, desktop/
  (updateURL repointed to oikos-web releases), compose/, own CI (web +
  desktop jobs), own deploy script (CI-green gate, TOCTOU guard,
  version-tagged images, prune-to-3), own webhook receiver on :9798 +
  launchd unit, own compose project publishing the same 8091:80.
- Cutover executed on mac-mini in order: oikos stack's web service
  stopped+removed, oikos-web project brought up on 8091; outer Caddy
  untouched (targets the published port) — serving + Authentik flow +
  /wails 404 quirk verified post-cutover.
- Stripped from oikos: web/, cmd/desktop/, compose/web/, desktop CI
  workflow, ci.yml web job, Makefile ui/desktop/desktop-package/install
  targets, the compose web service, oikos-web from deploy.sh's fallback
  prune list; wails + go-keyring dropped from go.mod, vendor synced.
- README / CONTRIBUTING / AGENTS.md / .agents dev+operations docs now
  point at the new repo; mbse + mascot design docs carry a path note.

Risk: production SPA serving depends on the new pipeline now; rollback
is versioned-image re-up of the old web service from a pre-split
checkout (port 8091). Desktop builds installed before the split still
check dtoro/oikos releases — one manual reinstall, noted in the
oikos-web release notes.

Verification: go vet, make test (race), make generate-check, golangci
(no new findings; baseline down 400→365); post-cutover curls —
localhost:8091 200, /wails/runtime.js 404, outer Caddy 302 Authentik.

fast-levenshtein - Levenshtein algorithm in Javascript

Build Status NPM module NPM downloads Follow on Twitter

An efficient Javascript implementation of the Levenshtein algorithm with locale-specific collator support.

Features

  • Works in node.js and in the browser.
  • Better performance than other implementations by not needing to store the whole matrix (more info).
  • Locale-sensitive string comparisions if needed.
  • Comprehensive test suite and performance benchmark.
  • Small: <1 KB minified and gzipped

Installation

node.js

Install using npm:

$ npm install fast-levenshtein

Browser

Using bower:

$ bower install fast-levenshtein

If you are not using any module loader system then the API will then be accessible via the window.Levenshtein object.

Examples

Default usage

var levenshtein = require('fast-levenshtein');

var distance = levenshtein.get('back', 'book');   // 2
var distance = levenshtein.get('我愛你', '我叫你');   // 1

Locale-sensitive string comparisons

It supports using Intl.Collator for locale-sensitive string comparisons:

var levenshtein = require('fast-levenshtein');

levenshtein.get('mikailovitch', 'Mikhaïlovitch', { useCollator: true});
// 1

Building and Testing

To build the code and run the tests:

$ npm install -g grunt-cli
$ npm install
$ npm run build

Performance

Thanks to Titus Wormer for encouraging me to do this.

Benchmarked against other node.js levenshtein distance modules (on Macbook Air 2012, Core i7, 8GB RAM):

Running suite Implementation comparison [benchmark/speed.js]...
>> levenshtein-edit-distance x 234 ops/sec ±3.02% (73 runs sampled)
>> levenshtein-component x 422 ops/sec ±4.38% (83 runs sampled)
>> levenshtein-deltas x 283 ops/sec ±3.83% (78 runs sampled)
>> natural x 255 ops/sec ±0.76% (88 runs sampled)
>> levenshtein x 180 ops/sec ±3.55% (86 runs sampled)
>> fast-levenshtein x 1,792 ops/sec ±2.72% (95 runs sampled)
Benchmark done.
Fastest test is fast-levenshtein at 4.2x faster than levenshtein-component

You can run this benchmark yourself by doing:

$ npm install
$ npm run build
$ npm run benchmark
