Package description

What is regenerate-unicode-properties?

The regenerate-unicode-properties package is a tool for generating JavaScript regular expressions based on Unicode properties. It is used to create sets of Unicode symbols that match certain criteria, such as belonging to a particular category, script, or block. This can be useful for text processing tasks that require matching characters with specific Unicode attributes.

What are regenerate-unicode-properties's main functionalities?

Generating regex sets for Unicode categories

This feature allows you to generate regular expressions that match any character from a specific Unicode category, such as letters (category 'L').

const regenerate = require('regenerate-unicode-properties');
const regex = regenerate().addCategory('L').toRegExp();
// regex will match any Unicode letter

Generating regex sets for Unicode scripts

This feature enables the creation of regular expressions that match characters from a specific Unicode script, such as Hiragana.

const regenerate = require('regenerate-unicode-properties');
const regex = regenerate().addScript('Hiragana').toRegExp();
// regex will match any character in the Hiragana script

Generating regex sets for Unicode blocks

With this feature, you can generate regular expressions that match characters within a specific Unicode block, like the Basic Latin block.

const regenerate = require('regenerate-unicode-properties');
const regex = regenerate().addBlock('Basic_Latin').toRegExp();
// regex will match any character in the Basic Latin block

regenerate-unicode-properties is a collection of Regenerate sets for various Unicode properties.

Installation

To use regenerate-unicode-properties programmatically, install it as a dependency via npm:

$ npm install regenerate-unicode-properties

Usage

To get a map of supported properties and their values:

const properties = require('regenerate-unicode-properties');

To get a specific Regenerate set:

// Examples:
const Lu = require('regenerate-unicode-properties/General_Category/Uppercase_Letter.js').characters;
const Greek = require('regenerate-unicode-properties/Script_Extensions/Greek.js').characters;

Some properties can also refer to strings rather than single characters:

const { characters, strings } = require('regenerate-unicode-properties/Property_of_Strings/Basic_Emoji.js');

To get the Unicode version the data was based on:

const unicodeVersion = require('regenerate-unicode-properties/unicode-version.js');

For maintainers

How to publish a new release

  1. On the main branch, bump the version number in package.json:

    npm version patch -m 'Release v%s'
    

    Instead of patch, use minor or major as needed.

    Note that this produces a Git commit + tag.

  2. Push the release commit and tag:

    git push && git push --tags
    

    Our CI then automatically publishes the new release to npm.
