Package Exports
- common-path-prefix
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 (common-path-prefix) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
common-path-prefix
Computes the longest prefix string that is common to each path, excluding the base component. Tested with Node.js 8 and above.
Installation
npm install common-path-prefix
Usage
The module has one default export, the commonPathPrefix
function:
const commonPathPrefix = require('common-path-prefix')
Call commonPathPrefix()
with an array of paths (strings) and an optional separator character:
const paths = ['templates/main.handlebars', 'templates/_partial.handlebars']
commonPathPrefix(paths, '/') // returns 'templates/'
If the separator is not provided the first /
or \
found in any of the paths is used. Otherwise the platform-default value is used:
commonPathPrefix(['templates/main.handlebars', 'templates/_partial.handlebars']) // returns 'templates/'
commonPathPrefix(['templates\\main.handlebars', 'templates\\_partial.handlebars']) // returns 'templates\\'
You can provide any separator, for example:
commonPathPrefix(['foo$bar', 'foo$baz'], '$') // returns 'foo$''
An empty string is returned if no common prefix exists:
commonPathPrefix(['foo/bar', 'baz/qux']) // returns ''
commonPathPrefix(['foo/bar']) // returns ''
Note that the following does have a common prefix:
commonPathPrefix(['/foo/bar', '/baz/qux']) // returns '/'
