unicode-property-aliases-ecmascript

unicode-property-aliases-ecmascript offers Unicode property alias mappings in an easy-to-consume JavaScript format. It only contains the Unicode property names that are supported in ECMAScript RegExp property escapes.

It’s based on Unicode’s PropertyAliases.txt.

Installation

Then, require it:

const propertyAliases = require('unicode-property-aliases-ecmascript');

Usage

This module exports a Map object. The most common usage is to convert a property alias to its canonical form:

propertyAliases.get('scx')
// → 'Script_Extensions'

For maintainers

How to publish a new release

1. On the main branch, bump the version number in package.json:

   npm version patch -m 'Release v%s'
   

   Instead of patch, use minor or major as needed.

   Note that this produces a Git commit + tag.

2. Push the release commit and tag:

   git push && git push --tags
   

   Our CI then automatically publishes the new release to npm.
