Package description
The strip-eof npm package is a utility that removes the end-of-file (EOF) newline character from a string or buffer. This can be useful in various scenarios where you need to ensure that the string or buffer does not end with a newline character.
Remove EOF newline from a string
This feature allows you to remove the EOF newline character from a string. In the example, the input string 'Hello, world!\n' is processed by strip-eof to produce 'Hello, world!' without the trailing newline.
const stripEof = require('strip-eof');
const input = 'Hello, world!\n';
const output = stripEof(input);
console.log(output); // 'Hello, world!'Remove EOF newline from a buffer
This feature allows you to remove the EOF newline character from a buffer. In the example, the input buffer containing 'Hello, world!\n' is processed by strip-eof to produce a buffer containing 'Hello, world!' without the trailing newline.
const stripEof = require('strip-eof');
const input = Buffer.from('Hello, world!\n');
const output = stripEof(input);
console.log(output.toString()); // 'Hello, world!'The trim-newlines package is used to trim newlines from the start and/or end of a string. Unlike strip-eof, which only removes the EOF newline, trim-newlines can remove newlines from both ends of the string, providing more flexibility in handling newline characters.
The newline-remove package removes all newline characters from a string, not just the EOF newline. This can be useful if you need to ensure that a string contains no newline characters at all, whereas strip-eof focuses solely on the EOF newline.
