Node Pad is a simple function to pad strings in the left and right directions.

pad(text, size, [char]): Left padding

Node Pad does left padding when the first argument is a string and the second argument is a number.

var pad = require('pad');
pad('pad', 6).should.eql('pad   ');

pad(size, text, [char]): Right padding

Node Pad does right padding when the first argument is a number and the second argument is a string.

var pad = require('pad');
pad(5, 'pad', '--').should.eql('--pad');
