- Extracted from lunicode.com.
- Forked from https://github.com/combatwombat/Lunicode.js
- Get out of bed
- Make this list
- Modularize the code
- NPM package it
- Add additional features
- Explain details and history of why and how they work (ref. unicode.org)
- Lose weight
- Finished lunicode.js modularization.
- Extracted, cleaned up and NPM Packaged creepify, flip, mirror, bent, bubbles, tiny, squares, roundsquares.
- Added simple browserify build script for main repo.
- Using lerna to continuously tear ludicode apart, limb by limb.
If you want all functionality, use ./dist/lunicode.js as a non-npm static dependency for the time being.
If you only want creepify, use the ludicode-creepify package.
Using browserify, if you use the former option a global variable called lunicode will be injected, behaving
the same as described below. If you have AMD or commonjs available, you can use them respectively.
//Assuming window.lunicode is set via the file in dist
var luni = new lunicode(); //yes, I know. Should be Lunicode. I will remove the need for a constructor next release anyway. (no promises!)
// Encode text. Use one of the effects shown below. Here it's "flip"
var encodedText = luni.tools.flip.encode("Hello World"); // plɹoM ollǝH
// Decode text back to plain ASCII (or reverse encoding)
var plainText = luni.tools.mirror.decode("ƚxɘT ɿoɿɿiM"); // Mirror Text
// Creepify has a few options. Set them before encoding:
luni.tools.creepify.options.top = true; // add diacritics on top. Default: true
luni.tools.creepify.options.middle = true; // add diacritics in the middle. Default: true
luni.tools.creepify.options.bottom = true; // add diacritics on the bottom. Default: true
luni.tools.creepify.options.maxHeight = 15; // How many diacritic marks shall we put on top/bottom? Default: 15
luni.tools.creepify.options.randomization = 100; // 0-100%. maxHeight 100 and randomization 20%: the height goes from 80 to 100. randomization 70%: height goes from 30 to 100. Default: 100
// To convert Unicode text to HTML, use luni.getHTML(text);
// Also converts \n to <br>\n and multiple spaces to ...
var html = luni.getHTML("ǝpoɔıu∩̤"); // ǝpoɔıu∩̤
✅ means they have their own npm package.
Flips/Rotates text, including numbers (12345) and some special characters: äöü éáú ÄÖÜ ß ô
