@xmcl/text-component

Text-component Module

Provide functions to parse Minecraft text component.

Usage

TextComponent

Create TextComponent from string OR Minecraft's formatted string, like '§cThis is red':

import { TextComponent, fromFormattedString } from "@xmcl/text-component";
const formattedString: string;
const fromFormatted: TextComponent = fromFormattedString(formattedString);

Render the TextComponent to css:

import { TextComponent, render, RenderNode } from "@xmcl/text-component";
const yourComponent: TextComponent;
const node: RenderNode = render(yourComponent);

node.text; // the text of the node
node.style; // style of the node
node.children; // children

// you can render in dom like this:

function renderToDom(node: RenderNode) {
    const span = document.createElement('span');
    span.style = node.style;
    span.textContent = node.text;
    for (const child of node.children) {
        span.appendChild(renderToDom(child));
    }
} 

Iterate the TextComponent and its children:

import { TextComponent, flat } from "@xmcl/text-component";
const yourComponent: TextComponent;
const selfAndAllChildren: Array<TextComponent> = flat(yourComponent);
