Punycode.js
A robust Punycode converter that fully complies to RFC 3492 and RFC 5891, and works on nearly all JavaScript platforms.
This JavaScript library is the result of comparing, optimizing and documenting different open-source implementations of the Punycode algorithm:
- The C example code from RFC 3492
punycode.c
by Markus W. Scherer (IBM)punycode.c
by Ben Noordhuis- JavaScript implementation by some
punycode.js
by Ben Noordhuis (note: not fully compliant)
This project is bundled with Node.js v0.6.2+.
Installation
Via npm (only required for Node.js releases older than v0.6.2):
npm install punycode
Via Bower:
bower install punycode
Via Component:
component install bestiejs/punycode.js
In a browser:
<script src="punycode.js"></script>
In Narwhal, Node.js, and RingoJS:
var punycode = require('punycode');
In Rhino:
load('punycode.js');
Using an AMD loader like RequireJS:
require(
{'paths': {
'punycode': 'path/to/punycode'
},
}'punycode'],
[function(punycode) {
console.log(punycode);
}; )
API
punycode.decode(string)
Converts a Punycode string of ASCII symbols to a string of Unicode symbols.
// decode domain name parts
.decode('maana-pta'); // 'mañana'
punycode.decode('--dqo34k'); // '☃-⌘' punycode
punycode.encode(string)
Converts a string of Unicode symbols to a Punycode string of ASCII symbols.
// encode domain name parts
.encode('mañana'); // 'maana-pta'
punycode.encode('☃-⌘'); // '--dqo34k' punycode
punycode.toUnicode(input)
Converts a Punycode string representing a domain name or an email address to Unicode. Only the Punycoded parts of the input will be converted, i.e. it doesn’t matter if you call it on a string that has already been converted to Unicode.
// decode domain names
.toUnicode('xn--maana-pta.com');
punycode// → 'mañana.com'
.toUnicode('xn----dqo34k.com');
punycode// → '☃-⌘.com'
// decode email addresses
.toUnicode('джумла@xn--p-8sbkgc5ag7bhce.xn--ba-lmcq');
punycode// → 'джумла@джpумлатест.bрфa'
punycode.toASCII(input)
Converts a Unicode string representing a domain name or an email address to Punycode. Only the non-ASCII parts of the input will be converted, i.e. it doesn’t matter if you call it with a domain that’s already in ASCII.
// encode domain names
.toASCII('mañana.com');
punycode// → 'xn--maana-pta.com'
.toASCII('☃-⌘.com');
punycode// → 'xn----dqo34k.com'
// encode email addresses
.toASCII('джумла@джpумлатест.bрфa');
punycode// → 'джумла@xn--p-8sbkgc5ag7bhce.xn--ba-lmcq'
punycode.ucs2
punycode.ucs2.decode(string)
Creates an array containing the numeric code point values of each Unicode symbol in the string. While JavaScript uses UCS-2 internally, this function will convert a pair of surrogate halves (each of which UCS-2 exposes as separate characters) into a single code point, matching UTF-16.
.ucs2.decode('abc');
punycode// → [0x61, 0x62, 0x63]
// surrogate pair for U+1D306 TETRAGRAM FOR CENTRE:
.ucs2.decode('\uD834\uDF06');
punycode// → [0x1D306]
punycode.ucs2.encode(codePoints)
Creates a string based on an array of numeric code point values.
.ucs2.encode([0x61, 0x62, 0x63]);
punycode// → 'abc'
.ucs2.encode([0x1D306]);
punycode// → '\uD834\uDF06'
punycode.version
A string representing the current Punycode.js version number.
Unit tests & code coverage
After cloning this repository, run npm install --dev
to
install the dependencies needed for Punycode.js development and testing.
You may want to install Istanbul globally using
npm install istanbul -g
.
Once that’s done, you can run the unit tests in Node using
npm test
or node tests/tests.js
. To run the
tests in Rhino, Ringo, Narwhal, PhantomJS, and web browsers as well, use
grunt test
.
To generate the code coverage report, use
grunt cover
.
Feel free to fork if you see possible improvements!
