@ryanmorr/tagged v0.1.3

tagged

A tiny utility function for creating tagged template literals.

Install

Download the CJS, ESM, UMD versions or install via NPM:

npm install @ryanmorr/tagged

Usage

Invoke with a function to handle the resulting template string:

const fn = tagged((str) => str + ' bar');

fn`foo`; //=> "foo bar"

Optionally provide a second function to mutate values passed to the tagged template:

const fn = tagged((str) => str, (val) => val.toLocaleDateString());

fn`The date is ${new Date()}`; //=> "The date is 07/06/2018"

Examples

Log to the console:

const log = tagged((msg) => console.log(msg));

log`This is an imporant message`;

Throw an error:

const error = tagged((msg) => {
    throw new Error(msg);
});

const code = 404;
const msg = 'Not found';

error`Network error: ${code} ${msg}`;

Parse an HTML string into a document fragment:

const toDOM = tagged((html) => {
    const template = document.createElement('template');
    template.innerHTML = html;
    return document.importNode(template.content, true);
});

const title = '<h1>Hello World</h1>';

const frag = toDOM`<div>${title}</div>`;

Compose regular expressions:

const regex = tagged((source) => new RegExp(source), (val) => val.source);

const yearRe = /([0-9]{4})/;
const monthRe = /([0-9]{2})/;
const dayRe = /([0-9]{2})/;
const dateRe = regex`^${yearRe}-${monthRe}-${dayRe}$`;

dateRe.test('2018-01-10'); //=> true

Encode parameters for a URI string:

const uri = tagged((str) => str, encodeURIComponent);

const genre = 'rock & roll';
const artist = 'led zeppelin';

uri`/genre/${genre}/artist/${artist}`); //=> "/genre/rock%20%26%20roll/artist/led%20zeppelin"
