## What is this?
This package exposes algorithms to check whether characters match groups.
## When should I use this?
This package might be useful when you are making your own micromark extensions.
## Install
This package is [ESM only][esm].
In Node.js (version 16+), install with [npm][]:
```sh
npm install micromark-util-character
```
In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
```js
import * as character from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-util-character@1'
```
In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
```html
<script type="module">
import * as character from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-util-character@1?bundle'
</script>
```
## Use
```js
import {asciiAlpha} from 'micromark-util-character'
console.log(asciiAlpha(64)) // false
console.log(asciiAlpha(65)) // true
```
## API
This module exports the identifiers
[`asciiAlpha`][api-ascii-alpha],
[`asciiAlphanumeric`][api-ascii-alphanumeric],
[`asciiAtext`][api-ascii-atext],
[`asciiControl`][api-ascii-control],
[`asciiDigit`][api-ascii-digit],
[`asciiHexDigit`][api-ascii-hex-digit],
[`asciiPunctuation`][api-ascii-punctuation],
[`markdownLineEnding`][api-markdown-line-ending],
[`markdownLineEndingOrSpace`][api-markdown-line-ending-or-space],
[`markdownSpace`][api-markdown-space],
[`unicodePunctuation`][api-unicode-punctuation],
[`unicodeWhitespace`][api-unicode-whitespace].
There is no default export.
### `asciiAlpha(code)`
Check whether the [character code][code] represents an ASCII alpha (`a` through
`z`, case insensitive).
An **ASCII alpha** is an ASCII upper alpha or ASCII lower alpha.
An **ASCII upper alpha** is a character in the inclusive range U+0041 (`A`)
to U+005A (`Z`).
An **ASCII lower alpha** is a character in the inclusive range U+0061 (`a`)
to U+007A (`z`).
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `asciiAlphanumeric(code)`
Check whether the [character code][code] represents an ASCII alphanumeric (`a`
through `z`, case insensitive, or `0` through `9`).
An **ASCII alphanumeric** is an ASCII digit (see `asciiDigit`) or ASCII alpha
(see `asciiAlpha`).
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `asciiAtext(code)`
Check whether the [character code][code] represents an ASCII atext.
atext is an ASCII alphanumeric (see `asciiAlphanumeric`), or a character in
the inclusive ranges U+0023 NUMBER SIGN (`#`) to U+0027 APOSTROPHE (`'`),
U+002A ASTERISK (`*`), U+002B PLUS SIGN (`+`), U+002D DASH (`-`), U+002F
SLASH (`/`), U+003D EQUALS TO (`=`), U+003F QUESTION MARK (`?`), U+005E
CARET (`^`) to U+0060 GRAVE ACCENT (`` ` ``), or U+007B LEFT CURLY BRACE
(`{`) to U+007E TILDE (`~`) (**\[RFC5322]**).
See **\[RFC5322]**:\
[Internet Message Format](https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5322).\
P. Resnick.\
IETF.
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `asciiControl(code)`
Check whether a [character code][code] is an ASCII control character.
An **ASCII control** is a character in the inclusive range U+0000 NULL (NUL)
to U+001F (US), or U+007F (DEL).
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `asciiDigit(code)`
Check whether the [character code][code] represents an ASCII digit (`0` through
`9`).
An **ASCII digit** is a character in the inclusive range U+0030 (`0`) to
U+0039 (`9`).
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `asciiHexDigit(code)`
Check whether the [character code][code] represents an ASCII hex digit (`a`
through `f`, case insensitive, or `0` through `9`).
An **ASCII hex digit** is an ASCII digit (see `asciiDigit`), ASCII upper hex
digit, or an ASCII lower hex digit.
An **ASCII upper hex digit** is a character in the inclusive range U+0041
(`A`) to U+0046 (`F`).
An **ASCII lower hex digit** is a character in the inclusive range U+0061
(`a`) to U+0066 (`f`).
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `asciiPunctuation(code)`
Check whether the [character code][code] represents ASCII punctuation.
An **ASCII punctuation** is a character in the inclusive ranges U+0021
EXCLAMATION MARK (`!`) to U+002F SLASH (`/`), U+003A COLON (`:`) to U+0040 AT
SIGN (`@`), U+005B LEFT SQUARE BRACKET (`[`) to U+0060 GRAVE ACCENT
(`` ` ``), or U+007B LEFT CURLY BRACE (`{`) to U+007E TILDE (`~`).
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `markdownLineEnding(code)`
Check whether a [character code][code] is a markdown line ending.
A **markdown line ending** is the virtual characters M-0003 CARRIAGE RETURN
LINE FEED (CRLF), M-0004 LINE FEED (LF) and M-0005 CARRIAGE RETURN (CR).
In micromark, the actual character U+000A LINE FEED (LF) and U+000D CARRIAGE
RETURN (CR) are replaced by these virtual characters depending on whether
they occurred together.
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `markdownLineEndingOrSpace(code)`
Check whether a [character code][code] is a markdown line ending (see
`markdownLineEnding`) or markdown space (see `markdownSpace`).
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `markdownSpace(code)`
Check whether a [character code][code] is a markdown space.
A **markdown space** is the concrete character U+0020 SPACE (SP) and the
virtual characters M-0001 VIRTUAL SPACE (VS) and M-0002 HORIZONTAL TAB (HT).
In micromark, the actual character U+0009 CHARACTER TABULATION (HT) is
replaced by one M-0002 HORIZONTAL TAB (HT) and between 0 and 3 M-0001 VIRTUAL
SPACE (VS) characters, depending on the column at which the tab occurred.
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `unicodePunctuation(code)`
Check whether the [character code][code] represents Unicode punctuation.
A **Unicode punctuation** is a character in the Unicode `Pc` (Punctuation,
Connector), `Pd` (Punctuation, Dash), `Pe` (Punctuation, Close), `Pf`
(Punctuation, Final quote), `Pi` (Punctuation, Initial quote), `Po`
(Punctuation, Other), or `Ps` (Punctuation, Open) categories, or an ASCII
punctuation (see `asciiPunctuation`) (**\[UNICODE]**).
See **\[UNICODE]**:\
[The Unicode Standard](https://www.unicode.org/versions/).\
Unicode Consortium.
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
### `unicodeWhitespace(code)`
Check whether the [character code][code] represents Unicode whitespace.
Note that this does handle micromark specific markdown whitespace characters.
See `markdownLineEndingOrSpace` to check that.
A **Unicode whitespace** is a character in the Unicode `Zs` (Separator,
Space) category, or U+0009 CHARACTER TABULATION (HT), U+000A LINE FEED (LF),
U+000C (FF), or U+000D CARRIAGE RETURN (CR) (**\[UNICODE]**).
See **\[UNICODE]**:\
[The Unicode Standard](https://www.unicode.org/versions/).\
Unicode Consortium.
###### Parameters
* `code` (`Code`)
— code
###### Returns
Whether it matches (`boolean`).
## Types
This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports no additional types.
## Compatibility
Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained
versions of Node.js.
When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line,
`micromark-util-character@^2`, compatible with Node.js 16.
This package works with `micromark@^3`.
## Security
This package is safe.
See [`security.md`][securitymd] in [`micromark/.github`][health] for how to
submit a security report.
## Contribute
See [`contributing.md`][contributing] in [`micromark/.github`][health] for ways
to get started.
See [`support.md`][support] for ways to get help.
This project has a [code of conduct][coc].
By interacting with this repository, organisation, or community you agree to
abide by its terms.
