PHP to Javascript Project: php.js

php.js This article is part of the 'Porting PHP to Javascript' Project, which aims to decrease the gap between developing for PHP & Javascript.

A lot of people are familiar with PHP's functions, and though Javascript functions are often quite similar, some functions may be missing or addressed differently. The Javascript implementations should be as compliant with the PHP versions as possible, a good indication is that the PHP function manual could also apply to the Javascript version.

Porting crucial PHP functions to Javascript can be fun & useful. Currently some PHP functions have been added, but readers are encouraged to contribute and improve functions by adding comments. Eventually the goal is to save all the functions in one php.js file and make it publicly available for your coding pleasure.

If you choose to contribute, let me know how you want to be credited in the function's comments. You may also want to subscribe to RSS so you receive updates whenever new functions are posted.

This is a Javascript version of the PHP function: wordwrap.

PHP wordwrap

Description

wordwrap - Wraps a string to a given number of characters

string wordwrap( string str [, int width [, string break [, bool cut]]] )

Wraps a string to a given number of characters using a string break character.

Parameters

str
The input string.
width
The column width. Defaults to 75.
break
The line is broken using the optional break parameter. Defaults to '\n'.
cut
If the cut is set to TRUE, the string is always wrapped at the specified width. So if you have a word that is larger than the given width, it is broken apart. (See second example).

Return Values

Returns the given string wrapped at the specified column.

Javascript wordwrap

This is the main source of the Javascript version of PHP's wordwrap

    var m = int_width, b = str_break, c = cut;
    var i, j, l, s, r;
    
    if(m < 1) {
        return str;
    }
    for(i = -1, l = (r = str.split("\n")).length; ++i < l; r[i] += s) {
        for(s = r[i], r[i] = ""; s.length > m; r[i] += s.slice(0, j) + ((s = s.slice(j)).length ? b : "")){
            j = c == 2 || (j = s.slice(0, m + 1).match(/\S*(\s)?$/))[1] ? m : j.input.length - j[0].length || c == 1 && m || j.input.length + (j = s.slice(m).match(/^\S*/)).input.length;
        }
    }
    
    return r.join("\n");
}

Examples

Currently there is 1 example

Example 1

This is how you could call wordwrap()

wordwrap('Kevin van Zonneveld', 6, '|', true);

And that would return

'Kevin |van |Zonnev|eld'

Testing the functions

The number of functions is growing fast and so it becomes hard to maintain quality.

To defeat that danger of bad code, syntax errors, etc, I've added a new feature: php.js tester.

It is an automatically generated page that includes ALL functions in your browser, and then extracts specific testing information from each function's comments. This info is then used to run the function, and the return value is compared to a predefined one.

This way code is always checked on syntax errors, and if it doesn't function correctly anymore after an update, we should also be able to detect it more easily.

If you want, go check it out.

Coming Project features

Project features that we are currently working on:

Versioning. Individual functions are versioned, but the entire library should be versioned as well.
Light. A lightweight version of php.js should be made available with only common functions in it.
