> Center-align the text in a string.

## Install

Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):

```sh
$ npm install --save center-align
```

## Usage

```js
var center = require('center-align');
center(val, width);
```

**Params**

* `val` **{String|Array}**: the string or array of strings to center align
* `width` **{Number}** (optional): the total width of each line in the expected result, after it's centered.

## Examples

```js
console.log(center('foo')); //=> 'foo' (does nothing)
console.log(center('foo', 12)); //=> '    foo    '
console.log(center('foo', 10)); //=> '   foo   '
console.log(center('foo', 8));  //=> '  foo  '
```

### Multiple lines

If expected `width` is not provided, the _length of the longest line_ will be used.

**Example**

If used on the following:

```js
// value can be a string, or an array of strings
center([
  'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,',
  'consectetur adipiscing',
  'elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt',
  'ut labore et dolore',
  'magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim',
  'veniam, quis'
]);
```

The result would be:

```
     Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
        consectetur adipiscing
elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt
         ut labore et dolore
    magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim
             veniam, quis
```
