breakableUrl

Return an escaped path or URL string that can be broken near path separators.

url string
the path or URL to format
Returns: string
the formatted path or URL
    function breakableUrl(url) {
        // This is for displaying in UI, so always want it escaped
        var escUrl = _.escape(url);

        // Inject zero-width space character (U+200B) near path separators (/) to allow line breaking there
        return escUrl.replace(
            new RegExp(regexEscape("/"), "g"),
            "/" + "​"
        );
    }
Public API

endsWith

Returns true if the given string ends with the given suffix.

str string
suffix string
    function endsWith(str, suffix) {
        return str.indexOf(suffix, str.length - suffix.length) !== -1;
    }

    function urlSort(a, b) {
        var a2, b2;
        function isFile(s) {
            return ((s.lastIndexOf("/") + 1) < s.length);
        }

        if (brackets.platform === "win") {
            // Windows: prepend folder names with a '0' and file names with a '1' so folders are listed first
            a2 = ((isFile(a)) ? "1" : "0") + a.toLowerCase();
            b2 = ((isFile(b)) ? "1" : "0") + b.toLowerCase();
        } else {
            a2 = a.toLowerCase();
            b2 = b.toLowerCase();
        }

        if (a2 === b2) {
            return 0;
        } else {
            return (a2 > b2) ? 1 : -1;
        }
    }
Public API

format

Format a string by replacing placeholder symbols with passed in arguments.

Example: var formatted = StringUtils.format("Hello {0}", "World");

str string
The base string
Arguments ...
to be substituted into the string
Returns: string
Formatted string
    function format(str) {
        // arguments[0] is the base string, so we need to adjust index values here
        var args = [].slice.call(arguments, 1);
        return str.replace(/\{(\d+)\}/g, function (match, num) {
            return typeof args[num] !== "undefined" ? args[num] : match;
        });
    }

    function regexEscape(str) {
        return str.replace(/([.?*+\^$\[\]\\(){}|\-])/g, "\\$1");
    }

    // Periods (aka "dots") are allowed in HTML identifiers, but jQuery interprets
    // them as the start of a class selector, so they need to be escaped
    function jQueryIdEscape(str) {
        return str.replace(/\./g, "\\.");
    }
Public API

getLines

text string
Returns: Array.<string>

    function getLines(text) {
        return text.split("\n");
    }

Returns: number
The 32-bit hash

    function hashCode(str) {
        var hash = 0, i, chr, len;

        }
        for (i = 0, len = str.length; i < len; i++) {
            chr   = str.charCodeAt(i);
            hash  = ((hash << 5) - hash) + chr;
            hash |= 0; // Convert to 32bit integer
        }
        return hash;

Public API

offsetToLineNum

Returns a line number corresponding to an offset in some text. The text can be specified as a single string or as an array of strings that correspond to the lines of the string.

Specify the text in lines when repeatedly calling the function on the same text in a loop. Use getLines() to divide the text into lines, then repeatedly call this function to compute a line number from the offset.

textOrLines string,Array.<string>
string or array of lines from which to compute the line number from the offset
offset number
Returns: number
line number
    function offsetToLineNum(textOrLines, offset) {
        if (Array.isArray(textOrLines)) {
            var lines = textOrLines,
                total = 0,
                line;
            for (line = 0; line < lines.length; line++) {
                if (total < offset) {
                    // add 1 per line since /n were removed by splitting, but they needed to
                    // contribute to the total offset count
                    total += lines[line].length + 1;
                } else if (total === offset) {
                    return line;
                } else {
                    return line - 1;
                }
            }

            // if offset is NOT over the total then offset is in the last line
            if (offset <= total) {
                return line - 1;
            } else {
                return undefined;
            }
        } else {
            return textOrLines.substr(0, offset).split("\n").length - 1;
        }
    }

prettyPrintBytes

Converts number of bytes into human readable format. If param bytes is negative it returns the number without any changes.

bytes number
Number of bytes to convert
precision number
Number of digits after the decimal separator
Returns: string
    function prettyPrintBytes(bytes, precision) {
        var kilobyte = 1024,
            megabyte = kilobyte * 1024,
            gigabyte = megabyte * 1024,
            terabyte = gigabyte * 1024,
            returnVal = bytes;

        if ((bytes >= 0) && (bytes < kilobyte)) {
            returnVal = bytes + " B";
        } else if (bytes < megabyte) {
            returnVal = (bytes / kilobyte).toFixed(precision) + " KB";
        } else if (bytes < gigabyte) {
            returnVal = (bytes / megabyte).toFixed(precision) + " MB";
        } else if (bytes < terabyte) {
            returnVal = (bytes / gigabyte).toFixed(precision) + " GB";
        } else if (bytes >= terabyte) {
            return (bytes / terabyte).toFixed(precision) + " TB";
        }

        return returnVal;

startsWith

Returns true if the given string starts with the given prefix.

str String
prefix String
Returns: Boolean
    function startsWith(str, prefix) {
        return str.slice(0, prefix.length) === prefix;
    }
Public API

truncate

Truncate text to specified length.

str string
Text to be truncated.
len number
Length to which text should be truncated
Returns: ?string
Returns truncated text only if it was changed
    function truncate(str, len) {
        // Truncate text to specified length
        if (str.length > len) {
            str = str.substr(0, len);

            // To prevent awkwardly truncating in the middle of a word,
            // attempt to truncate at the end of the last whole word
            var lastSpaceChar = str.lastIndexOf(" ");
            if (lastSpaceChar < len && lastSpaceChar > -1) {
                str = str.substr(0, lastSpaceChar);
            }
            return str;
        }
