Package Exports
- nlcst-is-literal
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 (nlcst-is-literal) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.
Readme
nlcst-is-literal

Check if an NLCST node is meant literally. Useful if a tool wants to exclude these values possibly void of meaning.
As an example, a spell-checker could exclude these literal words, thus not warning about “monsieur”.
Installation
npm:
npm install nlcst-is-literal
Usage
var retext = require('retext');
var visit = require('unist-util-visit');
var toString = require('nlcst-to-string');
var literal = require('nlcst-is-literal');
retext().use(plugin).process([
'The word “foo” is meant as a literal.',
'The word «bar» is meant as a literal.',
'The word (baz) is meant as a literal.',
'The word, qux, is meant as a literal.',
'The word — quux — is meant as a literal.'
].join('\n\n'));
function plugin() {
return transformer;
function transformer(tree) {
visit(tree, 'WordNode', visitor);
}
function visitor(node, index, parent) {
if (literal(parent, index)) {
console.log(toString(node));
}
}
}
Yields:
foo
bar
baz
qux
quux
API
isLiteral(parent, index)
Check if the node in parent
at position
is enclosed
by matching delimiters.
For example, in:
Foo - is meant as a literal.
;Meant as a literal is - foo.
;The word “foo” is meant as a literal.
;
...foo
is literal.
