advanced-mark.js

A fast JavaScript library to highlight words, terms, or text on a browser page. It also supports virtual DOMs.

This library from v2.0.0 doesn't guaranty backward compatibility with mark.js v9.0.0 and npm package v8.11.1.

What is done:

• rewritten across elements pipeline for performance reason and additional features
• rewritten domiterator class to handle iframes and shadow DOMs
• filter, each, and done callbacks additional parameters expose useful data that can 'deprive' you from 'happy hacking'

Added options:

• combinePatterns - boosts performance of mark() method when highlighting an array of terms
• cacheTextNodes - improves performance of mark() method when highlighting an array of terms
• separateGroups - allows highlighting RegExp capturing groups instead of the whole match
• wrapAllRanges - allows highlighting nesting/overlapping ranges and RegExp capturing groups
• markLines - allows highlighting ranges of lines
• blockElementsBoundary - limits matches within HTML block elements
• shadowDOM - allows highlighting inside shadow DOM

And a lot of other fixings, improvements ...

Playground and Documentation for advanced-mark.js v2.

Also may be useful to read Documentation. Note that this doc is for old mark.js.

Modules changes

• *. es6.*.js now are real ES6 modules. They are actually UMD modules in mark.js.

import Mark from './mark.es6.js';
// import Mark from './jquery.mark.es6.js';

Added node.jquery.mark.es6.js module, which is intended to use on Node.js and contains necessary import $ from 'jquery' declaration.
The modules jquery.mark.es6.js and jquery.mark.es6. min.js can be used directly in browsers (global $ or import $).
