To Build

While this library requires zero dependencies to run, it does use a build process to generate the large lists of bad words for each language using Google Translate. This data can be regenerated or modified yourself, but you will need to get access to your own Google Cloud Platform credentials. Once setup, you can build via:

node bin/build.js path/to/credentials.json
