Hi,

I want to convert your fuzzywuzzy codes to apex class language (language in Salesforce cloud), which has very similar syntax to Java. But currently I'm only planning to use SimpleRatio and PartialRatio. Am I allowed to do that? I also plan to opensource the result to my own project

Thank you in advance!

Absolutely you are free to do so, as long as you comply with the LICENSE rules (which at the time of writing this is GPL 2.0).

The license does apply to:

"work containing the Program or a portion of it, either verbatim or with modifications and/or translated into another language"

I would recommend reading it, and the restrictions it implies, that should give you a good idea of what you can/cannot/must do. A friendlier version is available here. If you want to use this in a commercial setting and you are uncertain about the implications of GPL 2.0 I would advice talking to your legal department 🙂

Hi xdrop, I finished to port the basic functions (SimpleRatio and PartialRatio) you can see the docs here: https://munawirrahman.medium.com/fuzzywuzzy-algorithm-with-salesforce-flow-39e4b2ad1918

Also, I found it its hard to test FuzzyWuzzy functions in internet without having to install the library, so I also created the UI for people, to actually test FuzzyWuzzy here: https://mooon-developer-edition.ap16.force.com/s/

thank you
