entityconvert.js

convert special characters in a string to their HTML or CSS charcode entities (useful for build tools et. al.)

The module works as AMD or CommonJS module and exports an Object exposing two methods: .html(string) and .css(string). In a non-AMD and non-CommonJS environment .entityconvert will be attached to the global object.

AMD usage:

require(['entityconvert'], function(entityconvert){
    var converted = entityconvert.html('We äll löve Ümläutß!');
    // => We äll löve Ümläutß!
});

CommonJS usage:

var entityconvert = require('entity-convert');
var converted = entityconvert.css('We äll löve Ümläutß!');
// => We \00e4ll l\00f6ve \00dcml\00e4ut\00df!

Script tag usage:

<script src="entityconvert.js"></script>
<script>
	var converted = entityconvert.html('Yäy!');
	// => Y&#228;y!
</script>

Available via npm:

npm install entity-convert --save
