⚠️ This repository is only for the tech literate. Usage of this requires modification of files in SillyTavern, proceed with the below instructions at your own risk.

What is this module and how to use this?

• The what:

This has been created for convenient editing of the filterText.js which can be used to filter out XML tags if you're using the official Anthropic API(Definitely not jealous of you), official OpenAI API, or Poe with SillyTavern (Instructions on how to proceed with this will be present in another repository or a Rentry file linked below)

• The how:

First, run the newconfig.bat file if you are on Windows. This will install the node packages required for the interface and then automatically open the interface in your default browser. Once the "FilterConfigurationModule" tab has been opened, you should see this:

• The type bar under the XML tags heading will allow you to add a filter for XML tags. Just input the text of your tag in this bar. Example: If the tag you want filtered is <text>, then type text in the typebar. The first checkbox allows filtering the values enclosed between the tags along with the tags themselves, while the Second checkbox filters the Tags only. Do remember to hit Save once you have entered your values, do not enter the same value twice. In case you are met with a situation wherein the console throws the "const has already been defined"(or anything like this) error, this should be fixable using the 2 methods below:
  • Open the filterText.js file and find the duplicate regular expression, and change the name of the regular expression to anything else if you really need it to stay for whatever reason. Make sure to make the appropriate changes in the .replace(textRe, ''), textRe being the name of the regular expression you just changed.
  • Delete the duplicate const and the .replace thingy for it. Yup, just that.
• The rest is pretty self-explanatory, if you really have no clue about how to use the other parts of the interface, read this.

Now what?

You will have to make certain changes in the server.js file in SillyTavern and also paste your modified filterText.js file in the SillyTavern folder to enable the filterText function. A rentry explaining the process will be shared below. The Rentry-> https://rentry.co/FilterConfigurationModule
