Package Exports

xml-name-validator

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 (xml-name-validator) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Validate XML Names and Qualified Names

This package simply tells you whether or not a string matches the Name or QName productions in the XML Namespaces specification. We use it for implementing the validate algorithm in jsdom, but you can use it for whatever you want.

Usage

"use strict":
var xnv = require("xml-name-validator");
var assert = require("assert");

// Will not throw:
xnv.name("x");
xnv.name(":");
xnv.name("a:0");
xnv.name("a🅱️c");

// Will throw:
xnv.name("\\");
xnv.name("'");
xnv.name("0");
xnv.name("a!");

// Will not throw:
xnv.qname("x");
xnv.qname("a0");
xnv.qname("a:b");

// Will throw:
xnv.qname(":a");
xnv.qname(":b");
xnv.qname("a🅱️c");
xnv.qname("a:0");

In all the cases where the validator throws, it will throw an instance of xnv.SyntaxError with an informative message property, among others.
