It exports pre-defined character sets (CJK characters, radicals, punctuation), Pinyin validation patterns (vowels, consonants, syllable/word/sentence regex), Zhuyin marks, and CC-CEDICT character references. The package has no runtime dependencies and is designed to be imported and used with Python's re module or other text processing tools.\n\nTypical use is to extract or validate Chinese text components: finding all hanzi characters in a mixed-language string, matching Pinyin syllables or words with regex, or validating sentence structure. It's a data reference, not an algorithm library\u2014you provide the processing logic (usually regex) and zhon provides the character classes and patterns.","worth_installing":"Yes. Zhon is a stable, dependency-free reference library for Chinese text processing with no known vulnerabilities. Install it if you're building tools that need to identify, validate, or extract Chinese characters, Pinyin, or Zhuyin. The dormant maintenance status is not a concern for a constants-only package\u2014the character sets it exports are unlikely to change frequently."},"id":"zhon","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/zhon","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/zhon.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/zhon/"},"maintenance":{"status":"dormant"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2024-11-20","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"zhon","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Zhon provides constants used in Chinese text processing."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":571763,"position":5949,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"2.1.1"}
