Parse-literals NPM

parse-literals

Because sometimes you literally need to parse template literals.

Why?

Template literals are often used in JavaScript for HTML and CSS. This library allows developers to extract the strings from the literals for post processing, such as minifying or linting.

Usage

import * as pl from 'parse-literals';
// const pl = require('parse-literals');

const templates = pl.parseLiterals(`
  render() {
    return html\`
      <h1>\${"Hello World"}</h1>
    \`;
  }
`);

console.log(templates);
// [
//   {
//     "tag": "html",
//     "parts": [
//       {
//         "text": "\n      <h1>",
//         "start": 30,
//         "end": 41
//       },
//       {
//         "text": "</h1>\n    ",
//         "start": 57,
//         "end": 67
//       }
//     ]
//   }
// ]
