This package contains only one function exported as getChunks. This method searches a string of text for a set of search terms and returns an array of chunks that describe the matches found. For example:

import { getChunks } from 'highlight-string';

const text = 'Have a nice day!';
const substrings = ['a', 'day'];

const chunks = getChunks({
  text,
  substrings,
});

const highlightedText = chunks
  .map(({ highlighted, text }) => (highlighted ? `<mark>${text}</mark>` : text))
  .join('');
