[TOC] # 6. 新的字符串特性 ## 6.1 概览 新的字符串方法: ``` ``> 'hello'.startsWith('hell') true > 'hello'.endsWith('ello') true > 'hello'.includes('ell') true > 'doo '.repeat(3) 'doo doo doo ' ``` ES6 has a new kind of string literal, the *template literal*: ```// String interpolation via template literals (in backticks)` `const` `first` `=` `'Jane'``;` `const` `last` `=` `'Doe'``;` `console``.``log``(```Hello ``${``first``}`` ``${``last``}``!```);` `// Hello Jane Doe!` `// Template literals also let you create strings with multiple lines` `const` `multiLine` `=` ``` `This is` `a string` `with multiple` `lines```;` ## 6.2 Unicode code point escapes In ECMAScript 6, there is a new kind of Unicode escape that lets you specify any code point (even those beyond 16 bits): ```console``.``log``(``'\u{1F680}'``);` `// ES6: single code point` `console``.``log``(``'\uD83D\uDE80'``);` `// ES5: two code units` More information on escapes is given in [the chapter on Unicode](ch_unicode.html#sec_escape-sequences). ## 6.3 String interpolation, multi-line string literals and raw string literals Template literals are described in depth in [their own chapter](ch_template-literals.html#ch_template-literals). They provide three interesting features. First, template literals support string interpolation: ```const` `first` `=` `'Jane'``;` `const` `last` `=` `'Doe'``;` `console``.``log``(```Hello ``${``first``}`` ``${``last``}``!```);` `// Hello Jane Doe!` Second, template literals can contain multiple lines: ```const` `multiLine` `=` ``` `This is` `a string` `with multiple` `lines```;` Third, template literals are “raw” if you prefix them with the *tag*`String.raw` – the backslash is not a special character and escapes such as `\n` are not interpreted: ```const` `str` `=` `String``.``raw```Not a newline: ``\``n```;` `console``.``log``(``str` `===` `'Not a newline: \\n'``);` `// true` ## 6.4 Iterating over strings Strings are [*iterable*](ch_iteration.html#ch_iteration), which means that you can use `for-of` to iterate over their characters: ```for` `(``const` `ch` `of` `'abc'``)` `{` `console``.``log``(``ch``);` `}` `// Output:` `// a` `// b` `// c` And you can use the spread operator (`...`) to turn strings into Arrays: ```const` `chars` `=` `[...``'abc'``];` `// ['a', 'b', 'c']` ### 6.4.1 Iteration honors Unicode code points The string iterator splits strings along code point boundaries, which means that the strings it returns comprise one or two JavaScript characters: ```for` `(``const` `ch` `of` `'x\uD83D\uDE80y'``)` `{` `console``.``log``(``ch``.``length``);` `}` `// Output:` `// 1` `// 2` `// 1` ### 6.4.2 Counting code points Iteration gives you a quick way to count the Unicode code points in a string: ``` ``> [...'x\uD83D\uDE80y'].length 3 ``` ### 6.4.3 Reversing strings with non-BMP code points Iteration also helps with reversing strings that contain non-BMP code points (which are larger than 16 bit and encoded as two JavaScript characters): ```const` `str` `=` `'x\uD83D\uDE80y'``;` `// ES5: \uD83D\uDE80 are (incorrectly) reversed` `console``.``log``(``str``.``split``(``''``).``reverse``().``join``(``''``));` `// 'y\uDE80\uD83Dx'` `// ES6: order of \uD83D\uDE80 is preserved` `console``.``log``([...``str``].``reverse``().``join``(``''``));` `// 'y\uD83D\uDE80x'` ![The two reversed strings in the Firefox console.](https://box.kancloud.cn/1813dd97ed4aa138add21070de52ecbc_135x83.jpg)The two reversed strings in the Firefox console.## Remaining problem: combining marks A *combining mark* is a sequence of two Unicode code points that is displayed as single symbol. The ES6 approach to reversing a string that I have presented here works for non-BMP code points, but not for combining marks. For those, you need a library, e.g. Mathias Bynens’ [Esrever](https://github.com/mathiasbynens/esrever). ## 6.5 Numeric values of code points The new method `codePointAt()` returns the numeric value of a code point at a given index in a string: ```const` `str` `=` `'x\uD83D\uDE80y'``;` `console``.``log``(``str``.``codePointAt``(``0``).``toString``(``16``));` `// 78` `console``.``log``(``str``.``codePointAt``(``1``).``toString``(``16``));` `// 1f680` `console``.``log``(``str``.``codePointAt``(``3``).``toString``(``16``));` `// 79` This method works well when combined with iteration over strings: ```for` `(``const` `ch` `of` `'x\uD83D\uDE80y'``)` `{` `console``.``log``(``ch``.``codePointAt``(``0``).``toString``(``16``));` `}` `// Output:` `// 78` `// 1f680` `// 79` The opposite of `codePointAt()` is `String.fromCodePoint()`: ``` ``> String.fromCodePoint(0x78, 0x1f680, 0x79) === 'x\uD83D\uDE80y' true ``` ## 6.6 Checking for inclusion Three new methods check whether a string exists within another string: ``` ``> 'hello'.startsWith('hell') true > 'hello'.endsWith('ello') true > 'hello'.includes('ell') true ``` Each of these methods has a position as an optional second parameter, which specifies where the string to be searched starts or ends: ``` ``> 'hello'.startsWith('ello', 1) true > 'hello'.endsWith('hell', 4) true > 'hello'.includes('ell', 1) true > 'hello'.includes('ell', 2) false ``` ## 6.7 Repeating strings The `repeat()` method repeats strings: ``` ``> 'doo '.repeat(3) 'doo doo doo ' ``` ## 6.8 String methods that delegate regular expression work to their parameters In ES6, the four string methods that accept regular expression parameters do relatively little. They mainly call methods of their parameters: - `String.prototype.match(regexp)` calls `regexp[Symbol.match](this)`. - `String.prototype.replace(searchValue, replaceValue)` calls `searchValue[Symbol.replace](this, replaceValue)`. - `String.prototype.search(regexp)` calls `regexp[Symbol.search](this)`. - `String.prototype.split(separator, limit)` calls `separator[Symbol.split](this, limit)`. The parameters don’t have to be regular expressions, anymore. Any objects with appropriate methods will do. ## 6.9 Reference: the new string methods Tagged templates: - `String.raw(callSite, ...substitutions) : string` Template tag for “raw” content (backslashes are not interpreted): ``` `` > String.raw`\n` === '\\n' true ``` Consult [the chapter on template literals](ch_template-literals.html#ch_template-literals) for more information. Unicode and code points: - `String.fromCodePoint(...codePoints : number[]) : string` Turns numbers denoting Unicode code points into a string. - `String.prototype.codePointAt(pos) : number` Returns the number of the code point starting at position `pos` (comprising one or two JavaScript characters). - `String.prototype.normalize(form? : string) : string` Different combinations of code points may look the same. [Unicode normalization](http://unicode.org/faq/normalization.html) changes them all to the same value(s), their so-called *canonical representation*. That helps with comparing and searching for strings. The `'NFC'` form is recommended for general text. Finding strings: - `String.prototype.startsWith(searchString, position=0) : boolean` Does the receiver start with `searchString`? `position` lets you specify where the string to be checked starts. - `String.prototype.endsWith(searchString, endPosition=searchString.length) : boolean` Does the receiver end with `searchString`? `endPosition` lets you specify where the string to be checked ends. - `String.prototype.includes(searchString, position=0) : boolean` Does the receiver contain `searchString`? `position` lets you specify where the string to be searched starts. Repeating strings: - `String.prototype.repeat(count) : string` Returns the receiver, concatenated `count` times. Next: [7. Symbols](ch_symbols.html)
