This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@stdlib/string-next-grapheme-cluster-break) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

About stdlib...

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.

The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.

When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.

To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!

nextGraphemeClusterBreak

Return the next extended grapheme cluster break in a string after a specified position.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/string-next-grapheme-cluster-break

Usage

var nextGraphemeClusterBreak = require( '@stdlib/string-next-grapheme-cluster-break' );

nextGraphemeClusterBreak( string[, fromIndex] )

Returns the next extended grapheme cluster break in a string after a specified position.

var out = nextGraphemeClusterBreak( 'last man standing' );
// returns 1

By default, the function searches for a grapheme cluster break starting from the first index. To specify an alternative starting search index, provide a fromIndex argument.

var out = nextGraphemeClusterBreak( 'last man standing', 4 );
// returns 5

Notes

If string is an empty string, the function returns -1 irrespective of fromIndex.
If an extended grapheme cluster break does not exist after fromIndex, the function returns -1.
Note that fromIndex does not refer to a visual character position, but to an index in the ordered sequence of UTF-16 code units.

Examples

var nextGraphemeClusterBreak = require( '@stdlib/string-next-grapheme-cluster-break' );

var out = nextGraphemeClusterBreak( 'last man standing', 4 );
// returns 5

out = nextGraphemeClusterBreak( 'presidential election', 8 );
// returns 9

out = nextGraphemeClusterBreak( 'अनुच्छेद', 1 );
// returns 3

out = nextGraphemeClusterBreak( '🌷', 0 );
// returns -1

Notice

This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
