This is [Unicode Normalizer] in a Common JS module. I'm not affiliated with Matsuza, the original author of Unicode Normalizer.

Installation
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
|
npm install unorm
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
Polyfill
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
You can use this module as a polyfill for [String.prototype.normalize], for example:
|
|
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
|
console.log('æøåäüö'.normalize('NFKD'));
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
|
|
The module uses some [EcmaScript 5](http://kangax.github.io/es5-compat-table/) features. Other browsers should use a compability shim, e.g. [es5-shim](https://github.com/kriskowal/es5-shim).
|
|
|
|
|
|
Functions
|
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
|
|
This module exports four functions: `nfc`, `nfd`, `nfkc`, and `nfkd`; one for each Unicode normalization. In the browser the functions are exported in the `unorm` global. In CommonJS environments you just require the module. Functions:
|
|
|
|
|
|
* `unorm.nfd(str)` – Canonical Decomposition
|
|
|
* `unorm.nfc(str)` – Canonical Decomposition, followed by Canonical Composition
|
|
|
* `unorm.nfkd(str)` – Compatibility Decomposition
|
|
|
* `unorm.nfkc(str)` – Compatibility Decomposition, followed by Canonical Composition
|
|

Node.JS example
|
|
|
---------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
For a longer example, see `examples` directory.
|
|
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
|
var unorm = require('unorm');
|
|
|
|
|
|
var text =
|
|
|
'The \u212B symbol invented by A. J. \u00C5ngstr\u00F6m ' +
|
|
|
'(1814, L\u00F6gd\u00F6, \u2013 1874) denotes the length ' +
|
|
|
'10\u207B\u00B9\u2070 m.';
|
|
|
|
|
|
var combining = /[\u0300-\u036F]/g; // Use XRegExp('\\p{M}', 'g'); see example.js.
|
|
|
|
|
|
console.log('Regular: ' + text);
|
|
|
console.log('NFC: ' + unorm.nfc(text));
|
|
|
console.log('NFD: ' + unorm.nfd(text));
|
|
|
console.log('NFKC: ' + unorm.nfkc(text));
|
|
|
console.log('NFKD: * ' + unorm.nfkd(text).replace(combining, ''));
|
|
|
console.log(' * = Combining characters removed from decomposed form.');
|
|
|
```

Road map
|
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
|
|
As of November 2013. Longer term:
|
|
|
|
|
|
- Look at possible optimizations (speed primarely, module size secondarily)
|
|
|
- Adding functions to quick check normalizations: `is_nfc`, `is_nfd`, etc.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Contributers
|
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
- **Oleg Grenrus** is helping to maintain this library. He cleaned up the code base, fixed JSHint errors, created a test suite and updated the normalization data to Unicode 6.3.

Development notes
|
|
|
-----------------
|
|
|
|
|
|
- [Unicode normalization forms report](http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr15/)
|
|
|
- Unicode data can be found from http://www.unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/ucd
|
|
|
|
|
|
To generate new unicode data, run:
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
|
cd src/data/src
|
|
|
javac UnormNormalizerBuilder.java
|
|
|
java UnormNormalizerBuilder
|
|
|
```
|
|
|
produced `unormdata.js` contains needed table
|
|
|
|
|
|
Execute `node benchmark/benchmark.js` to run simple benchmarks, if you do any changes which may affect performance.
