A very small library for the cases when you can't use Russian/Cyrillic (utf-8) symbolic table, i.e store some string data in the db which support only ascii symbols or transfer some data over encoded with latin alphabet.
The default rules for Russian <-> English transliteration are satisfying to ГОСТ 16876-71.
To use this library, just add:
import retranslit._
and then call translit function with the direction for translitteration:
val word = "Щука!"
val inLatin = word.translit[Russian >> English]this will convert Щука! into Shhuka!. To convert the word back just switch the >> to << or explicitly change the
direction:
val word = "Shhuka!"
val inLatin1 = word.translit[Russian << English]
val inLatin2 = word.translit[English >> Russian]
