Determine if a string is click bait or not.
With all the annoying buzzfeed garbage that is showing up on the internet I figure it'd be nice to have a way to weed that out. I don't know if this package has any real use case, but it actually kind of works, which is the amazing part. The classification is coming from the natural package that uses a Naive Bayes classifier to do the magic. This package just really trains the classifier and then returns to you if something is spammy looking.
The sources for spam healines are scraped from buzz feed and clickhole. The real news sources are from a few different reuters rss feeds. Look at the package.json for the packages that source that data.
$ npm install clickbaitvar clickbait = require('clickbait');
// wait for it to train itself
clickbait.on('ready', function(){
clickbait.bait('12 amazing photos of cute dogs');
// => "spam"
clickbait.bait('Obama to deploy troops to middle east');
// => "not"
});Tests run with mocha
$ npm test
