# MetamorPOV

This library provides the translation logic for the MetamorPOV [browser extension](https://git.viscogliosi-pate.com/jean/metamorpov). It exports a single function to replace specific plaintext markers (such as Y/n, pov/s, and vrb/do/present/) with their English equivalents.

## Usage

After installing the package and including it in your file header, you can call the single function that MetamorPOV exports.

```js
const input = "Pov/s vrb/present/like/ watching birds.";
const options = {
  name: "Amelia",
  preset: "she",
  pov: "third"
};

// "She likes watching birds."
console.log(metamorpov.translate(input, options));
```

## Development

MetamorPOV requires Node packages for evaluating some grammar rules. You'll need [Node](https://nodejs.org/) installed globally. As an alternative, install [Nix](https://nixos.org/) and type `nix develop` with the experimental flakes feature enabled. After that, from the extension's root directory:

```sh
# Install project dependencies
npm install

# Run the test script
npm run test
```
