A simple string template function based on named or indexed arguments
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Example
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
var format = require("string-template")
|
||
|
var greeting
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Format using an object hash with keys matching [0-9a-zA-Z]+
|
||
|
|
||
|
greeting = format("Hello {name}, you have {count} unread messages", {
|
||
|
name: "Robert",
|
||
|
count: 12
|
||
|
})
|
||
|
// greeting -> "Hello Robert, you have 12 unread messages"
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Format using a number indexed array
|
||
|
|
||
|
greeting = format("Hello {0}, you have {1} unread messages", ["Robert", 12])
|
||
|
// greeting -> "Hello Robert, you have 12 unread messages"
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Format using optional arguments
|
||
|
|
||
|
greeting = format("Hello {0}, you have {1} unread messages",
|
||
|
"Robert",
|
||
|
12)
|
||
|
// greeting -> "Hello Robert, you have 12 unread messages"
|
||
|
|
||
|
|
||
|
// Escape {} pairs by using double {{}}
|
||
|
|
||
|
var text = format("{{0}}")
|
||
|
// text -> "{0}"
|
||
|
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
## Compiling templates
|
||
|
|
||
|
`string-template` exposes two template compiling options for when you need the
|
||
|
additional performance. Arguments passed to the compiled template are of the
|
||
|
same structure as the main `string-template` function, so either a single
|
||
|
object/array or a list of arguments.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
var compile = require("string-template/compile")
|
||
|
|
||
|
var greetingTemplate = compile("Hello {0}, you have {1} unread messages")
|
||
|
|
||
|
var greeting = greetingTemplate("Robert", 12)
|
||
|
// -> "Hello Robert, you have 12 unread messages"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
Passing a truthy second argument to `compile` will opt into using `new Function`
|
||
|
to generate a function. The function returned contains a literal string
|
||
|
concatenation statement, interleaving the correct arguments you have passed in.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```js
|
||
|
var compile = require("string-template/compile")
|
||
|
|
||
|
var greetingTemplate = compile("Hello {0}, you have {1} unread messages", true)
|
||
|
// -> greetingTemplate generated using new Function
|
||
|
|
||
|
var greeting = greetingTemplate(["Robert", 12])
|
||
|
// -> "Hello Robert, you have 12 unread messages"
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
