# babel-plugin-transform-numeric-separator
|
|
|
|
> This plugin allows Babel to transform Decimal, Binary, Hex and Octal literals containing Numeric Literal Separator to their non-separated form.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
### Decimal Literals
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
let budget = 1_000_000_000_000;
|
|
|
|
// What is the value of `budget`? It's 1 trillion!
|
|
//
|
|
// Let's confirm:
|
|
console.log(budget === 10 ** 12); // true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Binary Literals
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
let nibbles = 0b1010_0001_1000_0101;
|
|
|
|
// Is bit 7 on? It sure is!
|
|
// 0b1010_0001_1000_0101
|
|
// ^
|
|
//
|
|
// We can double check:
|
|
console.log(!!(nibbles & (1 << 7))); // true
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Hex Literal
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
// Messages are sent as 24 bit values, but should be
|
|
// treated as 3 distinct bytes:
|
|
let message = 0xA0_B0_C0;
|
|
|
|
// What's the value of the upper most byte? It's A0, or 160.
|
|
// We can confirm that:
|
|
let a = (message >> 16) & 0xFF;
|
|
console.log(a.toString(16), a); // a0, 160
|
|
|
|
// What's the value of the middle byte? It's B0, or 176.
|
|
// Let's just make sure...
|
|
let b = (message >> 8) & 0xFF;
|
|
console.log(b.toString(16), b); // b0, 176
|
|
|
|
// What's the value of the lower most byte? It's C0, or 192.
|
|
// Again, let's prove that:
|
|
let c = message & 0xFF;
|
|
console.log(c.toString(16), b); // c0, 192
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Octal Literal
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
Octals are great for permissions, but also look better when represented in `0o0000` form. No real benefit with separators here.
|
|
|
|
## Installation
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
npm install --save-dev babel-plugin-transform-numeric-separator
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
### Via `.babelrc` (Recommended)
|
|
|
|
**.babelrc**
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"plugins": ["transform-numeric-separator"]
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Via CLI
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
babel --plugins transform-numeric-separator script.js
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### Via Node API
|
|
|
|
```javascript
|
|
require("babel-core").transform("code", {
|
|
plugins: ["transform-numeric-separator"]
|
|
});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Additional Information
|
|
|
|
If you need to further compile ES2015 Decimal, Binary, Hex and Octal number representations to their pre-ES2015 numeric literal form, add the [`"transform-es2015-literals"`](http://babeljs.io/docs/plugins/transform-es2015-literals/) plugin:
|
|
|
|
> `transform-es2015-literals` is already included in [babel-preset-env](https://github.com/babel/babel-preset-env) and babel-preset-es2015.
|
|
|
|
### Via `.babelrc` (Recommended)
|
|
|
|
**.babelrc**
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"presets": ["env"],
|
|
"plugins": ["transform-numeric-separator"]
|
|
}
|
|
{
|
|
"plugins": ["transform-numeric-separator", "transform-es2015-literals"]
|
|
}
|
|
```
