Before reading

This is a customised fork of npm package text-to-ipa. Please keep in mind, that the original author of this project is Shukri Adams

node-text-to-ipa

NPM port of the amazing text-to-ipa project.

    const TextToIPA = require('text-to-ipa');
    TextToIPA.lookup('word'); // > wɚˈd

If your lookup call needs to respond immediately, you can explicitly load the built-in dictionary

    const TextToIPA = require('text-to-ipa');
    TextToIPA.loadDict(); // blocking load

    TextToIPA.lookup('word'); // > wɚˈd

The dictionary is loaded once only.
