What is this?

This package is a unified (retext) plugin that defines how to take Dutch natural language as input and turn it into a syntax tree. When it’s used, natural language can be parsed and other retext plugins can be used after it.

See the monorepo readme for info on what the retext ecosystem is.

When should I use this?

This plugin adds support to unified for parsing Dutch. If the prose is not Dutch, use retext for any Latin-script text, or for English use unified itself with retext-english and retext-stringify.

If you just want the syntax tree, you can use parse-dutch directly.

Install

This package is ESM only. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:

npm install retext-dutch

In Deno with esm.sh:

import retextDutch from 'https://esm.sh/retext-dutch@5'

In browsers with esm.sh:

<script type="module">
  import retextDutch from 'https://esm.sh/retext-dutch@5?bundle'
</script>

Use

import retextDutch from 'retext-dutch'
import retextStringify from 'retext-stringify'
import {unified} from 'unified'
import {reporter} from 'vfile-reporter'

const file = await unified()
  .use(retextDutch)
  // Add your own plugins that work with Dutch here!
  .use(retextStringify)
  .process('Kunt U zich ’s morgens melden bij het afd. hoofd dhr. Venema')

console.log(String(file))
console.error(reporter(file))

Yields:

Kunt U zich ’s morgens melden bij het afd. hoofd dhr. Venema

Compatibility

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained versions of Node.js.

When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of Node. This means we try to keep the current release line, retext-dutch@^5, compatible with Node.js 16.
