Package Exports

string-extract-class-names

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 (string-extract-class-names) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Purpose

This library extracts the class and id names from the string and returns them all put into an array.

I use string-extract-class-names to identify all the CSS class names from the parsed HTML/CSS in the library email-remove-unused-css which detects and deletes the unused CSS styles.

Since deleting of people's code is a risky task, a huge responsibility falls onto parts which identify what should be deleted, and more importantly, parts which identify class names and id's. That's why I extracted the string-extract-class-names from the email-remove-unused-css and set up a proper test suite.

Currently there 196 checks in test.js running on AVA. I'm checking all the possible (and impossible) strings in and around the class and id names to be 100% sure only correct class and id names are put into the results array and nothing else.

Examples

var extract = require("string-extract-class-names");

// two classes and one id extracted:
extract("div.first.second#third a[target=_blank]");
// => ['.first', '.second', '#third']

// six id's extracted (works even despite the nonsensical question mark characters):
extract("?#id1#id2? #id3#id4> p > #id5#id6");
// => ['#id1', '#id2', '#id3', '#id4', '#id5', '#id6']
