What is this?

This package exposes an algorithm to parse character escapes and 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. In Node.js (version 16+), install with npm:

npm install micromark-util-decode-string

In Deno with esm.sh:

import {decodeString} from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-util-decode-string@1'

In browsers with esm.sh:

<script type="module">
  import {decodeString} from 'https://esm.sh/micromark-util-decode-string@1?bundle'
</script>

Use

import {decodeString} from 'micromark-util-decode-string'

decodeString('a ; b') // 'a ; b'
decodeString('a \\; b') // 'a ; b'
decodeString('a ; b') // 'a ; b'

API

This module exports the identifier decodeString. There is no default export.

decodeString(value)

Decode markdown strings (which occur in places such as fenced code info strings, destinations, labels, and titles).

The “string” content type allows character escapes and -references. This decodes those.

Parameters

• value (string) — value to decode

Returns

Decoded value (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-string@^2, compatible with Node.js 16. This package works with micromark@^3.

Security

This package is safe. See security.md in micromark/.github for how to submit a security report.
