What is this?

This package exposes an algorithm to classify characters into 3 categories.

When should I use this?

This package might be useful when you are making your own micromark extensions.

Install

This package is ESM only. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:

npm install micromark-util-classify-character

In Deno with esm.sh:

import {classifyCharacter} from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-util-classify-character@1'

In browsers with esm.sh:

<script type="module">
  import {classifyCharacter} from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-util-classify-character@1?bundle'
</script>

Use

/**
 * @this {TokenizeContext}
 * @type {Tokenizer}
 */
function tokenizeAttention(effects, ok) {
  return start

  // …

  /** @type {State} */
  function sequence(code) {
    if (code === marker) {
      // …
    }

    const token = effects.exit('attentionSequence')
    const after = classifyCharacter(code)
    const open =
      !after || (after === constants.characterGroupPunctuation && before)
    const close =
      !before || (before === constants.characterGroupPunctuation && after)
    // …
  }

  // …
}

API

This module exports the identifier classifyCharacter. There is no default export.

classifyCharacter(code)

Classify whether a code represents whitespace, punctuation, or something else.

Used for attention (emphasis, strong), whose sequences can open or close based on the class of surrounding characters.

👉 Note: eof (null) is seen as whitespace.

Parameters

• code (Code) — code

Returns

Group (constants.characterGroupWhitespace, constants.characterGroupPunctuation, or undefined).

Types

This package is fully typed with TypeScript. It exports no additional types.

Compatibility

This package works with micromark version 3+.
