ts-left-pad v0.0.2

ts-left-pad

THE ONLY TYPE SAFE WAY1 TO PAD A STRING ON THE LEFT OF THE STRING

var theleft = require("ts-left-pad");

theleft("goat", 10)
// '      goat'

theleft("goat", 10, ".")
// '......goat'

INSTALLING

npm install ts-left-pad

NOTES

As it turns out, I think the ts compiler removes stuff that would handle type-checking at runtime, so coding defensively against the user at runtime might be a wiser choice.

1: Wanted a template project to play with typescript tooling: travis, tests, publishing for npm usage.
