## What is this?
This package exposes an algorithm to decode numeric character references.
## 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-decode-numeric-character-reference
```
In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
```js
import {decodeNumericCharacterReference} from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-util-decode-numeric-character-reference@1'
```
In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:
```html
<script type="module">
import {decodeNumericCharacterReference} from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-util-decode-numeric-character-reference@1?bundle'
</script>
```
## Use
```js
import {decodeNumericCharacterReference} from 'micromark-util-decode-numeric-character-reference'
decodeNumericCharacterReference('41', 16) // 'A'
decodeNumericCharacterReference('65', 10) // 'A'
decodeNumericCharacterReference('A', 16) // '\n'
decodeNumericCharacterReference('7F', 16) // '<27>' - Control
decodeNumericCharacterReference('110000', 16) // '<27>' - Out of range
```
## API
This module exports the identifier:
[`decodeNumericCharacterReference`][api-decode-numeric-character-reference].
There is no default export.
### `decodeNumericCharacterReference(value, base)`
Turn the number (in string form as either hexa- or plain decimal) coming from
a numeric character reference into a character.
Sort of like `String.fromCodePoint(Number.parseInt(value, base))`, but makes
non-characters and control characters safe.
###### Parameters
* `value` (`string`)
— value to decode
* `base` (`number`, probably `10` or `16`)
— numeric base
###### Returns
Character (`string`).
## 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-decode-numeric-character-reference@^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.
