🔪 Strops (String Operations)

npm version Known Vulnerabilities FOSSA Status

Provides simple methods for the most useful operations with substrings:
- remove, replace, get from A to B, get from A to B exclusive and other.
For an example, you can use it for an HTML page repairing or restyling old websites:
- replacing CSS styles, appending blocks into html, deleting specific tags with inners, and etc.

Of course, these methods cannot give you total control as RegExp. But in many cases it can be more easy and efficient.
This package has zero dependencies.

😉 Hope you enjoy it!

📘 Usage

Common snippet for examples below:

const strops = require('strops')

const text = `<table>
<tr><td class="class-1"><b>JavaScript</b></td></tr>
<tr><td class="class-2">C++</td></tr>
<tr><td class="class-1">Python</td></tr>
</table>`

remove:

const newText = strops.remove(text, '<b>', '</b>', 'class-1')

// returns:
// <table>
// <tr><td class="">JavaScript</td></tr>
// <tr><td class="class-2">C++</td></tr>
// <tr><td class="">Python</td></tr>
// </table>

// Also you can pass an array of substrings to get the same result
// Just use the spread operator to expand the array out to the parameters
const newText = strops.remove(text, ...['<b>', '</b>', 'class-1'])

removeAtoB:

const newText = strops.removeAtoB(text, '<tr>', '</tr>')

// returns:
// <table>
//
//
//
// </table>

removeAtoBInner:

const newText = strops.removeAtoBInner(text, '<tr>', '</tr>')

// returns:
// <table>
// <tr></tr>
// <tr></tr>
// <tr></tr>
// </table>

replace:

const newText = strops.replace(text, 'Rust', 'Python', 'C++', 'JavaScript')

// returns:
// <table>
// <tr><td class="class-1"><b>Rust</b></td></tr>
// <tr><td class="class-2">Rust</td></tr>
// <tr><td class="class-1">Rust</td></tr>
// </table>

getAtoB:

const newText = strops.getAtoB(text, '<tr>', '</tr>')

// returns:
// [
//  '<tr><td class="class-1"><b>JavaScript</b></td></tr>',
//  '<tr><td class="class-2">C++</td></tr>',
//  '<tr><td class="class-1">Python</td></tr>'
// ]

// You can easily get first entry by:

const newText = strops.getAtoB(text, '<tr>', '</tr>')[0]

// returns:
// <tr><td class="class-1"><b>JavaScript</b></td></tr>

getAtoBInner:

const newText = strops.getAtoBInner(text, '<tr>', '</tr>')

// returns:
// [
//  '<td class="class-1"><b>JavaScript</b></td>',
//  '<td class="class-2">C++</td>',
//  '<td class="class-1">Python</td>'
// ]

getIndexes:

const newText = strops.getIndexes(text, '<tr>')

// returns:
// { '8': 12, '60': 64, '99': 103 }
// * where <key> is start index, and <value> is an end index

// And yes. I know that we have <key> as a type of <string> here.
// But this approach simple to use when you get slices by iterating this:
const word = 'Hey bro!'
const indexes = { 0: 3, 4: 7 }

for (let key in indexes) {
	console.log(word.substring(key, indexes[key]))
}
// Hey
// bro

getIndexesAtoBInner:

const newText = strops.getIndexesAtoBInner(text, '<tr>', '</tr>')

// returns:
// { '12': 54, '64': 93, '103': 134 }
// * where <key> is start index, and <value> is an end index

getIndexesAtoB:

const newText = strops.getIndexesAtoB(text, '<tr>', '</tr>')

// returns:
// { '8': 59, '60': 98, '99': 139 }
// * where <key> is start index, and <value> is an end index
