    Action to perform with hanging indentation unless a block is written.

method indent

indent: { (times?: number): this; (block: () => void): this };

  • Indents the code one level for the current line.

  • Indents a block of code.

    Parameter block

    Block to indent.

method inlineBlock

    Write using the writer within this block.

  • Gets if the writer is currently in a comment.

method isInString

isInString: () => boolean;

  • Gets if the writer is currently in a string.

method isLastBlankLine

isLastBlankLine: () => boolean;

  • Gets if the last chars written were for a blank line.

method isLastNewLine

isLastNewLine: () => boolean;

  • Gets if the last chars written were for a newline.

method isLastSpace

isLastSpace: () => boolean;

isLastTab: () => boolean;

  • Gets if the last char written was a tab.

method isOnFirstLineOfBlock

isOnFirstLineOfBlock: () => boolean;

  • Gets if the writer is currently on the first line of the text, block, or indentation block.

method iterateLastCharCodes

iterateLastCharCodes: <T>(
    action: (charCode: number, index: number) => T | undefined
) => T | undefined;

  • Iterates over the writer character char codes in reverse order. The iteration stops when a non-null or undefined value is returned from the action. The returned value is then returned by the method.

    Remarks

    It is much more efficient to use this method rather than #toString() since #toString() will combine the internal array into a string. Additionally, this is slightly more efficient that iterateLastChars as this won't allocate a string per character.

method iterateLastChars

iterateLastChars: <T>(
    action: (char: string, index: number) => T | undefined
) => T | undefined;

  • Iterates over the writer characters in reverse order. The iteration stops when a non-null or undefined value is returned from the action. The returned value is then returned by the method.

    Remarks

    It is much more efficient to use this method rather than #toString() since #toString() will combine the internal array into a string.

method newLine

newLine: () => this;

  • Writes a newline.

method newLineIfLastNot

newLineIfLastNot: () => this;

  • Writes a newline if the last line was not a newline.

method toString

toString: () => string;

  • Gets the writer's text.

method unsafeInsert

unsafeInsert: (pos: number, text: string) => this;

  • Inserts text at the provided position.

    This method is "unsafe" because it won't update the state of the writer unless inserting at the end position. It is biased towards being fast at inserting closer to the start or end, but slower to insert in the middle. Only use this if absolutely necessary.

    Parameter pos

    Position to insert at.

    Parameter text

    Text to insert.

method withIndentationLevel

withIndentationLevel: {
    (indentationLevel: number, action: () => void): this;
    (whitespaceText: string, action: () => void): this;
};

  • Sets the indentation level within the provided action and restores the writer's indentation state afterwards.

    Parameter indentationLevel

    Indentation level to set.

    Parameter action

    Action to perform with the indentation.

    Remarks

    Restores the writer's state after the action.

    Parameter whitespaceText

    Gets the indentation level from the indentation text.

    Parameter action

    Action to perform with the indentation.

method write
