Endent

An ES6 string tag that makes indentation right, adds some key features to dedent.

Feature

pretty object

import dedent from "dedent"
import endent from "endent"

var someobj = {
  contact: {
    jack: 123456,
    tom: 654321
  },
  color: "blue"
}

var somejson = '["bear", "fish", "dog", "cat"]'

var awfulTmpl = dedent`
  function store (state, emitter) {
    state["someobj"] = ${JSON.stringify(someobj, null, 2)}
    state["somejson"] = ${JSON.stringify(JSON.parse(somejson), null, 2)}
  }
`
// use endent.pretty(value) when value is object or array.
var prettyTmpl = endent`
  function store (state, emitter) {
    state["someobj"] = ${endent.pretty(someobj)}
    state["somejson"] = ${somejson}
  }
`

console.log(awfulTmpl + "\n\n" + prettyTmpl)

// awfulTmpl
function store (state, emitter) {
  state["someobj"] = {
"contact": {
  "jack": 123456,
  "tom": 654321
},
"color": "blue"
}
  state["somejson"] = [
"bear",
"fish",
"dog"
]
}

// prettyTmpl
function store (state, emitter) {
  state["someobj"] = {
    "contact": {
      "jack": 123456,
      "tom": 654321
    },
    "color": "blue"
  }
  state["somejson"] = [
    "bear",
    "fish",
    "dog",
    "cat"
  ]
}

endows suitable indentation for multiline interpolation

var dependencies = ['jquery', 'underscore', 'bootstrap']
var dependencyTmpl = ``
dependencies.forEach((d, i) => {
  dependencyTmpl += `var ${d} = require("${d}")\n`
})

var awfulTmpl = dedent`
  ;(function () {
    ${dependencyTmpl}
  })()
`

var prettyTmpl = endent`
  ;(function () {
    ${dependencyTmpl}
  })()
`

console.log(awfulTmpl + "\n\n" + prettyTmpl)

// awfulTmpl
;(function () {
  var jquery = require('jquery')
var underscore = require('underscore')
var bootstrap = require('bootstrap')
})()


// prettyTmpl
;(function () {
  var jquery = require('jquery')
  var underscore = require('underscore')
  var bootstrap = require('bootstrap')
})()
