What is micromark-util-character?

The micromark-util-character package provides utility functions for character classification and manipulation, specifically designed to support the micromark Markdown parser. It includes methods for identifying whitespace, punctuation, and other character types relevant to Markdown syntax parsing.

What are micromark-util-character's main functionalities?

Whitespace detection

This feature allows you to detect if a character is considered whitespace (e.g., spaces, tabs). It's useful for parsing tasks where whitespace needs to be treated specially.

"use strict";
var character = require('micromark-util-character');

console.log(character.isSpace(' ')); // true
console.log(character.isSpace('\t')); // true
console.log(character.isSpace('a')); // false

Punctuation detection

This feature enables the identification of punctuation characters, which is crucial for parsing and tokenizing Markdown syntax where punctuation often has special meaning.

"use strict";
var character = require('micromark-util-character');

console.log(character.isPunctuation('!')); // true
console.log(character.isPunctuation('.')); // true
console.log(character.isPunctuation('a')); // false

Alphanumeric check

This functionality allows for checking if a character is alphanumeric, supporting the parsing process by distinguishing between textual content and syntax markers.

"use strict";
var character = require('micromark-util-character');

console.log(character.isAlphanumeric('a')); // true
console.log(character.isAlphanumeric('1')); // true
console.log(character.isAlphanumeric('!')); // false
