Package Exports
- ansi-to-html
- ansi-to-html/lib/ansi_to_html.js
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 (ansi-to-html) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
Ansi to Html
This was originally a port of the ansi to html converter from bcat to JavaScript. It has since undergone quite a lot of modification.
It has a few additions:
- The API has been altered to accept options in the constructor, and input in
toHtml()
. - ANSI codes for setting the foreground or background color to default are handled
- the 'erase in line' escape code (
\x1b[K
) is dropped from the output.
Installation
npm install ansi-to-html
Usage
var Convert = require('ansi-to-html');
var convert = new Convert();
console.log(convert.toHtml('\x1b[30mblack\x1b[37mwhite'));
/*
prints:
<span style="color:#000">black<span style="color:#AAA">white</span></span>
*/

npm run lint
Build
npm run build
- Builds the
/src
files by runningbabel
. - Saves the built files in
/lib
output directory. - Recommended to run
babel
in Watch mode - will re-build the project each time the files are changed.
npm run build:watch
Test
npm test
- Note: Runs the tests against the built files (in the
/lib
directory). - You also run the tests in watch mode (will rerun tests when files are changed).
- Recommended to run the build in watch mode as well to re-build the project before the tests are run.
npm run test:watch
