Fuzzy match accented characters

[toby1kenobi]

Is it possible to match unaccented characters like a and o with accented ones, like á and ó (for example)?

Thanks

Hello @toby1kenobi,

Apologies for my delayed reply.

Yes, this is possible using the diacritics config option. Setting diacritics: true normalizes both the query and the data values, so searching for "a" will match "á", "à", "â", etc.

const ac = new autoComplete({
  selector: "#autoComplete",
  diacritics: true,
  data: { src: ["café", "naïve", "résumé"] }
});

Please try it and let me know how it goes.

Cheers! :)
