alias-collision
This is a node.js micro library that will prefix any strings in a reserve words list and provides and inverse operation to avoid conflicts when writing code that will potentially collide with the codes syntax. Comes with a default list of ES5 reserve words.
Installation
npm install alias-collision
Use
var aliasCollision = require('alias-collision.js'),
reserveWord = 'function';
// alias a reserve word
reserveWord = aliasCollision.prefix(reserveWord);
console.log(reserveWord); // reserve_function
// un-alias a reserve word
reserveWord = aliasCollision.unPrefix(reserveWord);
console.log(reserveWord); // function
// alias-collision is idempotent
reserveWord = aliasCollision.unPrefix(reserveWord);
console.log(reserveWord); // function
// add custom prefix
aliasCollision.setPrefix('new-prefix-');
reserveWord = aliasCollision.prefix(reserveWord);
console.log(reserveWord); // new-prefix-function
// check the prefix
console.log(aliasCollision.getPrefix()); // new-prefix-
// alias-collision will not alias words that are not
// on the reserve word list.
reserveWord = aliasCollision.prefix('aintItFunkyNow');
console.log(reserveWord); // aintItFunkyNow
// add words to the collision list
aliasCollision.addReserveWords('aintItFunkyNow');
reserveWord = aliasCollision.prefix(reserveWord);
console.log(reserveWord); // new-prefix-aintItFunkyNow
