Package Exports

latinize
latinize/latinize.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 (latinize) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Simple library to convert accents (diacritics) from strings to latin characters.

latinize('ỆᶍǍᶆṔƚÉ áéíóúýčďěňřšťžů'); // => 'ExAmPlE aeiouycdenrstzu'

<script src="../latinize.js"></script>
<script>
    document.write(latinize('ỆᶍǍᶆṔƚÉ áéíóúýčďěňřšťžů'));

You can use the latinize.characters object to access the translation table and pass custom mapping as a second argument:

// modify the behavior for German umlauts
const characters = {
  ...latinize.characters,
  'Ä': 'Ae', 'Ö': 'Oe', 'Ü': 'Ue', 'ä': 'ae', 'ö': 'oe', 'ü': 'ue'
};
latinize('ÄÖ', characters) // => "AeOe"
