Spring Boot Profanity Filter
Use Spring's WebClient to moderate content reactively inside a service bean.
Quick start in Spring Boot
Map<String, Object> body = Map.of(
"text", text, "context", "comment", "mode", "balanced");
ModerationResult result = webClient.post()
.uri("https://api.theprofanityapi.com/v1/check")
.header("Authorization", "Bearer " + apiKey)
.bodyValue(body)
.retrieve()
.bodyToMono(ModerationResult.class)
.block();
if (result.flagged()) { /* reject */ } Why context-aware matters
A plain word list flags "this game is sick" or medical text full of
anatomical terms. The Profanity API runs a five-layer pipeline that
scores intent, so "die" in a gaming taunt and "die" in a real
threat are handled differently. Pick a context and the engine
adjusts strictness automatically.
