A linter that checks for duplicate words in the source code (usually miswritten)
Examples in real code and related issues can be viewed in [dupword#3](https://github.com/Abirdcfly/dupword/issues/3)
## example
1. Repeated words appear on two adjacent lines [commit](https://github.com/golang/go/commit/d8f90ce0f8119bf593efb6fb91825de5b61fcda7)

## Install
```bash
go install github.com/Abirdcfly/dupword/cmd/dupword@latest
```
**Or** install the main branch (including the last commit) with:
```bash
go install github.com/Abirdcfly/dupword/cmd/dupword@main
```
## Usage
### 1. default
Run with default settings(include test file):
**But note that not all repeated words are wrong** see [dupword#4](https://github.com/Abirdcfly/dupword/issues/4) for real code example.
```bash
$ dupword ./...
/Users/xxx/go/src/dupword/dupword_test.go:88:10: Duplicate words (the) found
exit status 3
```
### 2. skip test file
Skip detection test file(`*_test.go`):
```bash
$ dupword -test=false ./...
```
### 3. auto-fix
```bash
$ dupword -fix ./...
```
### 4. all options
All options:
```bash
$ dupword --help
dupword: checks for duplicate words in the source code (usually miswritten)
Usage: dupword [-flag] [package]
This analyzer checks miswritten duplicate words in comments or package doc or string declaration
Flags:
-V print version and exit
-all
no effect (deprecated)
-c int
display offending line with this many lines of context (default -1)
-cpuprofile string
write CPU profile to this file
-debug string
debug flags, any subset of "fpstv"
-fix
apply all suggested fixes
-flags
print analyzer flags in JSON
-ignore value
ignore words
-json
emit JSON output
-keyword value
keywords for detecting duplicate words
-memprofile string
write memory profile to this file
-source
no effect (deprecated)
-tags string
no effect (deprecated)
-test
indicates whether test files should be analyzed, too (default true)
-trace string
write trace log to this file
-v no effect (deprecated)
```
### 5. my advice
use `--keyword=the,and,a` and `-fix` together. I think that specifying only commonly repeated prepositions can effectively avoid false positives.
see [dupword#4](https://github.com/Abirdcfly/dupword/issues/4) for real code example.
```bash
$ dupword --keyword=the,and,a -fix ./...
```
## TODO
- [x] add this linter to golangci-lint
- [ ] rewrite the detection logic to make it more efficient
## Limitation
1. Only for `*.go` file.But some miswritten occurs in `*.md` or `*.json` file.(example: kubernetes), In this case, my advice is to use [rg](https://github.com/BurntSushi/ripgrep) to do the lookup and replace manually.
2. When use `-fix`, also running `go fmt` in the dark.([This logic is determined upstream](https://github.com/golang/tools/blob/248c34b88a4148128f89e41923498bd86f805b7d/go/analysis/internal/checker/checker.go#L424-L433), the project does not have this part of the code.)
