Issue when parsing external swearWords file

[rlevy12]

Using the latest version of your demo code, plus the existing swearWords.json file, the browser produces an error message as follows:

Uncaught TypeError: badWords.concat(...).unique is not a function
at HTMLDivElement. (jquery.profanityfilter.js:148)
at Function.each (jquery.min.js:2)
at init.each (jquery.min.js:2)
at init.$.fn.profanityFilter (jquery.profanityfilter.js:122)
at profanity-original-demo.html:146

From what I can tell, the issue lies with this line:
var badWordsJSON = localStorage.getItem(localSwearsKey);
Where the results come back as """" (two actual quotes inside of a quoted string). This causes the next line to fail:
if (badWordsJSON === null) {

... because it really isn't null, it's a set of actual quotes. Changing the line to:
if (badWordsJSON === null || badWordsJSON == "\"\"") {
fixes the problem.

Thank you!

Hello Chase, thanks for your reply. I would love to create a pull request but I don't seem to be able to create a branch in this Github project in order to do so. I do have the fix committed in my local clone of this repo. Could you advise?

You have to fork it to your own account. Make edits there, then pr Get Outlook for Android<https://aka.ms/ghei36>
