A string-like object to work more easily with strings in templates. Inherits everything from string.js, and sprinkles some other methods on top:
npm install stringlike
var StringLike = require('stringlike');
var a = new StringLike('a string')
//or
var b = StringLike('a string') //you can skip the 'new'converts single line returns to
s and more line returns to paragraphs
var text = 'This is an example text, and here is a line break \n'
+ 'that should convert to a BR. Now, if I use two line breaks \n\n\n'
+ 'this text should be wrapped in P\'s\n\n';
var converted_text = '<p>This is an example text, and here is a line break <br>'
+ 'that should convert to a BR. Now, if I use two line breaks </p><p>'
+ 'this text should be wrapped in P\'s</p>';
var str = new StringLike(text)
console.log(str.linebreaksToHTML().s == converted_text);converts strings to class names that are safe to use in html elements if "prefix" is passed, it will be pre-pended to the string
converts all strings inside an object to instances of StringLike. Useful to convert a full "locals" object that you want to pass to your templates The function does not handle cyclic references unless you pass an array to 'recurse'
- "limit" defaults to 10 nested objects, set it to -1 for infinite.
- "recurse" if an array is passed (or true), the function will handle recursion
var obj = {
someProp:{
someInsideProp:'a string'
}
, someOtherProp:'a'
}
StringLike.convert(obj);
console.log(
(obj.someProp.someInsideProp.s === 'a string')
&& (obj.someOtherProp.repeat(3).s === 'aaa')
)
