keep_unique_keywords(value) classmethod

Remove duplicate keywords from bold list.

Why

Users might accidentally list same keyword multiple times. Deduplication prevents redundant bold highlighting operations during rendering.

Parameters:

  • value (list[str]) –

    List of keywords potentially with duplicates.

Returns:

  • list[str] –

    List with unique keywords only.
