jsSnowball is a JavaScript port of http://snowball.tartarus.org/ stemmers, web site is at: http://code.google.com/p/urim/

Summary:

snowball-js implements the popular "Snowball" word stemming algorithm in JavaScript. Originally ported to JavaScript by Oleg Mazko for Urim, Fortnight Labs forked it to GitHub to add support for Node and npm.

Install:

npm install snowball

Usage:

var Snowball = require('snowball');
var stemmer = new Snowball('English');
stemmer.setCurrent('abbreviations');
stemmer.stem();
console.log(stemmer.getCurrent());
# => 'abbrebi'

Notes:

To make porting from Java sources easier each stemmer could be validated by Regex:

[^\.]((limit_backward)|(limit)|(cursor)|(bra)|(ket)|(setCurrent)|(getCurrent)|(in_grouping)|(in_grouping_b)|(out_grouping)|(out_grouping_b)|(in_range)|(in_range_b)|(out_range)|(out_range_b)|(eq_s)|(eq_s_b)|(find_among)|(find_among_b)|(replace_s)|(slice_check)|(slice_from)|(slice_del)|(insert)|(slice_to)|(eq_v_b))

Snowball.min.js library was compressed by Google Closure Compiler:

java -jar compiler.jar --js Snowball.js --js_output_file Snowball.min.js

Changes:

0.3:
    in_range, in_range_b, out_range, out_range_b functions removed from sbp(never used).

0.1:
First version. Porting from Java code with minimum changes. 
Reflection for Finnish stemmer is replaced by using callback function as function parameter.
