m.noansi v1.1.0

m.noansi

m(icro)noansi is a lightweight es6+ library that removes ansi escape codes.

stream replacement

the module itself exports a transform stream that can be used according to its api.

const noansi = require('m.noansi')

process.stdin.pipe(noansi).pipe(process.stdout)

string replacement

the noansi method is used internally within the transform stream but can be used safely to replace string and buffers.

const {noansi} = require('m.noansi')

noansi('\u001b[4mfoobar\u001b[0m') // => 'foobar'

cli usage

when installed globally both m.noansi and noansi binaries are linked and can therefore be used:

npm --global install m.noansi

which noansi
echo "\u001b[4mfoobar\u001b[0m" | noansi # echo "foobar"

which m.noansi
echo "\u001b[4mfoobar\u001b[0m" | m.noansi # echo "foobar"
