This fork of subsume is for use in
cases where the use of symbol characters is limited (only uses -).
Embed data in other data and easily extract it when needed
Can for example be useful when you run a child process that has multiple entities writing to stdout and you want to handle those outputs differently. I personally use it in run-jxa to allow the code run in that context to use console.log, but also allow me to send the result of the execution back through console.log.
$ npm install --save subsume-limited
const Subsume = require('subsume-limited');
const subsume = new Subsume();
console.log(subsume.id);
//=> '7febcd0b3806fbc48c01d7cea4ed1219'
const text = subsume.compose('🦄');
//=> 'Qq-7febcd0b3806fbc48c01d7cea4ed1219-qQ🦄Zz-7febcd0b3806fbc48c01d7cea4ed1219-zZ'
// the text can now be embedded in some other text
const output = `some${text} random text`;
//=> 'someQq-7febcd0b3806fbc48c01d7cea4ed1219-qQ🦄Zz-7febcd0b3806fbc48c01d7cea4ed1219-zZ random text'
// at a later point we extract it
subsume.parse(output);
//=> {data: '🦄', rest: 'some random text'}
// or in a different process by using the `id`
const input = 'someQq-7febcd0b3806fbc48c01d7cea4ed1219-qQ🦄Zz-7febcd0b3806fbc48c01d7cea4ed1219-zZ random text';
Subsume.parse(text, '7febcd0b3806fbc48c01d7cea4ed1219');
//=> {data: '🦄', rest: 'some random text'}Returns a new subsume instance.
