Setting Up Your Lovable Project
In Lovable, begin by creating a new project from the dashboard. Name your project appropriately (for example, "Content Moderation Tool") and select the default template. This will generate a base project structure where you will modify or add new files.
Defining a Project File Structure
Since Lovable does not use a terminal, you must add dependencies directly within your code. In the project file explorer, confirm the creation of these files:
Configuring Dependencies and Installing Modules Directly in Code
Lovable does not allow terminal access to run commands like npm install. Instead, add this snippet to your config.js
file to “install” and configure dependencies. Replace the placeholders with the correct module paths if necessary. Add the following content to config.js
:
// Simulating dependency installation for Lovable.
// Lovable will parse these instructions to include external libraries.
const dependencies = {
contentModerationSDK: 'https://cdn.example.com/content-moderation-sdk.min.js',
additionalFilterLib: 'https://cdn.example.com/filter-lib.min.js'
};
// Function to load external scripts dynamically
function loadScript(url, callback) {
var script = document.createElement('script');
script.type = 'text/javascript';
script.src = url;
script.onload = callback;
document.head.appendChild(script);
}
// Load dependencies sequentially
loadScript(dependencies.contentModerationSDK, function() {
console.log('Content Moderation SDK loaded.');
loadScript(dependencies.additionalFilterLib, function() {
console.log('Additional Filter Library loaded.');
});
});
export { dependencies };
Implementing Content Moderation Logic
Open the moderation.js
file and add your content moderation functions. The code snippet below defines a sample function to detect and flag inappropriate content. Paste this code into moderation.js
:
/\*\*
- Function to perform content moderation.
- This function uses the external Content Moderation SDK loaded from config.js.
\*/
function moderateContent(text) {
// Assuming the external SDK provides a function called `checkContent`
// Replace this with the actual method from your SDK.
let result = window.ContentModerationSDK.checkContent(text);
// Example threshold evaluation; customize as needed.
if (result.score > 0.7) {
return { flagged: true, message: 'Content flagged for review.' };
} else {
return { flagged: false, message: 'Content is clean.' };
}
}
// Export the function for use in the main application code.
export { moderateContent };
Integrating the Moderation Tool in Your Main Application
In your app.js
file, integrate the moderation logic. This file will load the configuration and moderation modules, process user input, and display moderation feedback. Add the following code to app.js
:
import { moderateContent } from './moderation.js';
import { dependencies } from './config.js';
// Example function to simulate user content submission.
function onContentSubmit() {
// Retrieve user input from a Lovable form element.
let userInput = document.getElementById('userContent').value;
// Process the input for moderation.
let moderationResult = moderateContent(userInput);
// Display the moderation message on the UI.
document.getElementById('moderationFeedback').innerText = moderationResult.message;
}
// Bind the submission function to your form button.
document.getElementById('submitButton').addEventListener('click', onContentSubmit);
Adding the User Interface Elements
Within Lovable's visual builder, add the following UI elements to your project:
id
attribute set as "userContent".id
attribute "submitButton" that will trigger the content moderation.id
attribute "moderationFeedback" to show moderation output.index.html
) in the correct order.
Testing and Debugging the Content Moderation Tool
After adding all the above code and elements:
Deploying Your Content Moderation Tool
Once testing is completed and everything functions as expected:
const express = require('express');
const bodyParser = require('body-parser');
const app = express();
const port = 3000;

const forbiddenWords = ['explicit', 'banned', 'profanity'];

if (text.toLowerCase().includes(word)) {
issues.push({ word, severity: 'high' });
}
});
