# AFINN
[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/afinn.ts)
[](https://github.com/cmpadden/afinn.ts/actions)
AFINN sentiment analysis: a wordlist-based approach to sentiment analysis
ported from the [Python implementation](https://github.com/fnielsen/afinn) to Typescript.
## Installation
```
yarn add afinn.ts
```
## Demo
A demonstration of the `afinn.ts` module can be found in use at [https://cmpadden.github.io/afinn.ts-demo/](https://cmpadden.github.io/afinn.ts-demo/) with source code in the
[cmpadden/afinn.ts-demo](https://github.com/cmpadden/afinn.ts-demo) repository.
## Examples
```ts
import Afinn from "afinn.ts";
const afinn = Afinn({ language: "en" });
afinn.score("This is utterly excellent!");
```
In Danish:
```ts
const afinn = Afinn({ language: "da" });
afinn.score("Hvis ikke det er det mest afskyelige flueknepperi...");
```
In Finnish:
```ts
const afinn = Afinn({ language: "fi" });
afinn.score("Siellä on uusi hyvä juttu, katsokaa ja kuunnelkaa ihmeessä.");
```
In Swedish:
```ts
const afinn = Afinn({ language: "sv" });
afinn.score("det är inte bra");
```
In Turkish:
```ts
const afinn = Afinn({ language: "tr" });
afinn.score("iyi de\u011Fil");
```
```ts
const afinn = Afinn({ language: "tr" });
afinn.score("iyi değil");
```
With emoticons:
```ts
const afinn = Afinn({ language: "emoticons" });
afinn.score("I saw that yesterday :)");
```
_NOTE:_ there are plans to add _emoticon_ support to all languages, as is done in the Python implementation.
