@babel/helper-validator-identifier
Advanced tools
The @babel/helper-validator-identifier npm package is a utility library used by Babel to validate string identifiers according to the ECMAScript specification. It provides functions to determine if a string is a valid identifier name, which is useful when manipulating code in a way that needs to adhere to JavaScript naming conventions.
isValidIdentifier
Checks if a string is a valid ECMAScript identifier name.
const isValid = require('@babel/helper-validator-identifier').isValidIdentifier;
console.log(isValid('validName')); // true
console.log(isValid('123invalid')); // false
isIdentifierStart
Checks if a character code can start an ECMAScript identifier.
const isIdentifierStart = require('@babel/helper-validator-identifier').isIdentifierStart;
console.log(isIdentifierStart('v'.charCodeAt(0))); // true
console.log(isIdentifierStart('1'.charCodeAt(0))); // false
isIdentifierChar
Checks if a character code can be part of an ECMAScript identifier.
const isIdentifierChar = require('@babel/helper-validator-identifier').isIdentifierChar;
console.log(isIdentifierChar('n'.charCodeAt(0))); // true
console.log(isIdentifierChar('!'.charCodeAt(0))); // false
