We make a best effort to throw an -exception when given a format string we don't understand, rather than ignoring -it, so that we won't break existing programs if/when we go implement the rest -of this. - -This implementation currently supports specifying - -* field alignment ('-' flag), -* zero-pad ('0' flag) -* always show numeric sign ('+' flag), -* field width -* conversions for strings, decimal integers, and floats (numbers). -* argument size specifiers. These are all accepted but ignored, since - Javascript has no notion of the physical size of an argument. - -Everything else is currently unsupported, most notably: precision, unsigned -numbers, non-decimal numbers, and characters. - -Besides the usual POSIX conversions, this implementation supports: - -* `%j`: pretty-print a JSON object (using node's "inspect") -* `%r`: pretty-print an Error object - -# Example - -First, install it: - - # npm install extsprintf - -Now, use it: - - var mod_extsprintf = require('extsprintf'); - console.log(mod_extsprintf.sprintf('hello %25s', 'world')); - -outputs: - - hello world - -# Also supported - -**printf**: same args as sprintf, but prints the result to stdout - -**fprintf**: same args as sprintf, preceded by a Node stream. Prints the result -to the given stream. |
