text-block-parser


Parse blocks of text based on indentation.

This is a fork of https://github.com/reergymerej/block-parser that adds:

- types
- maxNodes option

Install

``
npm install text-block-parser
`

Usage

`js
const { parse } = require('text-block-parser')

const input =
hello
world

parse(input)

[ { scope: 'hello', children: [] },
{ scope: 'world', children: [] } ]
`

The maximum number of children is 100 by default. Additional children will be dropped. To allow more children, you can specify maxNodes in the second argument:

`
parse(input, Infinity)
`

$3

We don't care about blank lines or the type of
indentation.
`js
input =
fruits
apple
gala
pink lady
pear

cherry
white

veggies
kale
red russian

cabbage
radish

parse(input)

[ { scope: 'fruits',
children:
[ { scope: ' apple',
children:
[ { scope: ' gala', children: [] },
{ scope: ' pink lady', children: [] } ] },
{ scope: ' pear', children: [] },
{ scope: ' cherry',
children: [ { scope: ' white', children: [] } ] } ] },
{ scope: 'veggies',
children:
[ { scope: ' kale',
children: [ { scope: ' red russian', children: [] } ] },
{ scope: ' cabbage', children: [] },
{ scope: ' radish', children: [] } ] } ]
