API

Escaper.replace(str, how?, store?): string

Replaces all found blocks ' ... ', " ... ", ` ... `, / ... /, // ..., /* ... */ to escape blocks from the specified string and returns a new string.

Arguments

• string str — source string;
• string[] | Record<string, string[] | Record<string, boolean | -1> | false | -1> | false | -1 how? — parameters:

Possible values

If a value is set to -1, then all found matches will be removed from the final string. If the value is set to boolean it will be replaced/passed.

// Label of replacement, by default __ESCAPER_QUOT__${pos}_
'label'

// Singleline comment
'singleComments'

// Multiline comments
'multComments'

// All kinds of comments
'comments'

// All kinds of strings
'strings'

// All kinds of literals (except strings and comments)
'literals'

// Literals
"'"
'"'
'`'
'/'
'//'
'//*'
'//!'
'//#'
'//@'
'//$'
'/*'
'/**'
'/*!'
'/*#'
'/*@'
'/*$'

The parameters can be specified as an array (escapes only explicitly specified sequences) or like an object (disables/excludes by a literal or group). Also, if you set the parameter value as -1, then all found sequences will be removed from the string.

• string[] store = Escaper.content — store for matches.

Escaper.paste(str, store?, rgxp?): string

Replaces all found escape blocks to real content from the specified string and returns a new string.

Arguments

• string str — source string;
• string[] store = Escaper.content — store of matches;
• RegExp rgxp? — RegExp to search, e.g. /__ESCAPER_QUOT__(\d+)_/g.
