node-fusker - A Fusking library for Node.js

Generates URLs from a fusk (a string or collection of strings containing expansions). A single fusk can contain multiple expansions.

Supports the following syntax:

• Range [...-...] - Hyphen separated low to high.
  • Numeric [1-10] - Generates 1, 2, ..., 10
  • Padded Numeric [001-010] - Generates 001, 002, 003, ..., 010
  • Alpha [a-z] - Generates a, b, c, d, ..., z
• Switch {...|...} - Pipe separated words.
  • Example {Man|Bear|Pig} - Generates Man, Bear, Pig

Example of url syntax

A Fusk containing 'http://www.example.com/{Man|Bear|Pig}_[0001-005]-[1-2].jpg' will generate:

• 'http://www.example.com/Man_0001-1.jpg'
• 'http://www.example.com/Man_0001-2.jpg'

Usage

Using load():

Fusker = require('node-fusker').Fusker;

var fusker = new Fusker();

fusker.load(fusks);
var urls = fusker.getAll();

Using fusk():

Fusker = require('node-fusker').Fusker;

var fusker = new Fusker(),
    urls = fusker.fusk(fusks);

Using constructor:

Fusker = require('node-fusker').Fusker;

var fusker = new Fusker({
    fusks: fusks
}),
    urls = fusker.getAll();

Options:

• fusks - A string or array containing fusks. If a string, fusks are separated by whitespace or newlines.
• autoPad (default: true) - If true, will automatically pad any range containing a pad character (eg, 001 would pad to 3 characters with '0'). Recommended 'true'.
• padLength - If autoPad is false, this value will manually set the pad size (not recommended).
• padChar - If autoPad is false, this value will manually set the pad character (not recommended).
