Key Features: - Fuzzy String Matching: pfzy enables fuzzy string matching, allowing you to find approximate matches for a given query within a set of strings. - Asynchronous Fuzzy Matching: pfzy includes an asynchronous fuzzy match function, making it suitable for high-performance applications and scenarios. - Fzy Scorer: The package provides a fzy scorer for calculating fuzzy string match scores, aiding in ranking matches based on their similarity. - Substring Scorer: An exact substring match scorer is also available, allowing for precise substring matching. . While the popular fuzzywuzzy Python package performs fuzzy string matching, it lacks the ability to calculate and provide matching indices. pfzy is built on the fzy algorithm, which not only calculates matching scores but also offers matching indices, making it ideal for fuzzy finder applications.
