Manipulate plain text strikethrough chars in Javascript
This library aims to help you manipulate strikethrough characters in strings.
Strikethrough is represented by words with a horizontal line through their center. It implies that the text is wrong and was recently deleted or marked as such. Unlike the HTML's tag, strikethrough text will work when you copy-paste it in to another location. That’s because the strikethrough characters [...] are in plain text. - Saijo George
It can be useful when some fonts don't support strikethrough text. Using this, you will be able to use regular text and then apply strikethrough another way (e.g., in CSS: text-decoration: line-through;).
npm install strikethrough-js// Common
var strikethrough = require('strikethrough-js');
var res = strikethrough.removeStrikethrough('m̶y̶T̶e̶x̶t̶');
// ES5/6
import { removeStrikethrough } from 'strikethrough-js';
const res = removeStrikethrough('m̶y̶T̶e̶x̶t̶');Returns an equivalent string of regular text:
const str = removeStrikethrough('Price was 1̶2̶3̶7̶8̶9̶€̶');
// Price was 123789€Returns a string without strikethrough text:
const str = removeStrikethroughChars('456€ 1̶2̶3̶7̶8̶9̶€̶');
// 456€ Returns a string[] of the strikethrough characters:
const str = getStrikethroughChars('456€ (1̶2̶3̶7̶8̶9̶€̶)');
// ["1̶", "2̶", "3̶", "7̶", "8̶", "9̶", "€̶"]Returns a string of the strikethrough text:
const str = getStrikethroughString('456€ (1̶2̶3̶7̶8̶9̶€̶)');
// 1̶2̶3̶7̶8̶9̶€̶Returns an equivalent string[] of the strikethrough characters:
const str = getChars('456€ (1̶2̶3̶7̶8̶9̶€̶)');
// ["1", "2", "3", "7", "8", "9", "€"]Returns an equivalent string of the strikethrough characters:
const str = getString('456€ (1̶2̶3̶7̶8̶9̶€̶)');
// 123789€Since this lib is pretty light, there is no need for a sophisticated bundler (like Webpack or Rollup). The core lib is bundled with bare-bones NodeJS and Babel.
npm test
Will run Jest test suites. It will be also triggered by Husky git hooks.
