I usually don’t drool over code but this one is just way too elegant for me not to.
StackEdit – In-browser Markdown editor is an awesome app for markdown editing. One of the standout features is ability to comment and review – something sorely missing from the standard markdown. StackEdit very cleverly serializes reviews and notes as a base64 string and inserts it at the end of the document using HTML comment . As part of the exercise this comment is saved very tidily in a 50 char wide column. So how does one wrap a string at a fixed width? This is the
genius line:
const serializedData = utils.encodeBase64(JSON.stringify(data)) .replace(/(.{50})/g, '$1\n');
What does it do?
- utils.encodeBase64(JSON.stringify(data)) – take our data object, serialize it to string, then convert to base64 to make sure it’s printable
- replace – that’s just replace one thing with another
- (.{50}) – a group of 50 characters
- /g – global, i.e. do not stop after the match
- '$1\n' – replace those groups of 50 characters with themselves plus newlines
Is that a brilliant piece of code or what?
