2. it is to define a dictionary vith keys as :

const zabc_dikt = {
  zabc_list: [
    'N', //  ऀ 900 2304  inverted candrabindu
    'N', //  ँ 901 2305  anunasika(candrabindu)
    'N', //  ं 902 2306 anuswara anusvara bindu
    'A', //  ः 903 2307  visarga
      // ..... so on
      // ....
  ],
  hard_consonants_modulo_list : [
    0x15, 0x17, 0x1A, 0x1C, 0x1F, 0x21, 0x24, 0x26, 0x2A, 0x2C, 0x37, 0x58, 0x5A, 0x5B, 0x79, 0x7C, 0x7E, 0x7F,
  ],
};

2. import library as in your js file:

```js
import transliterator from 'libindik-transliteration';
import zabc from './zabc.js';
const input = 'हिन्दी विकिपीडिया' ;
var t = new transliterator()
var transliterated_output = t.transliterate_input(input,0)
// or
var transliterated_output = t.transliterate_input(input) // 0 is default
