# entities [](https://npmjs.org/package/entities) [](https://npmjs.org/package/entities) [](http://travis-ci.org/fb55/entities) [](https://coveralls.io/r/fb55/entities)
|
||||
|
||||
Encode & decode HTML & XML entities with ease & speed.
|
||||
|
||||
## Features
|
||||
|
||||
- 😇 Tried and true: `entities` is used by many popular libraries; eg.
|
||||
[`htmlparser2`](https://github.com/fb55/htmlparser2), the official
|
||||
[AWS SDK](https://github.com/aws/aws-sdk-js-v3) and
|
||||
[`commonmark`](https://github.com/commonmark/commonmark.js) use it to
|
||||
process HTML entities.
|
||||
- ⚡️ Fast: `entities` is the fastes library for decoding HTML entities (as of
|
||||
April 2022); see [performance](#performance).
|
||||
- 🎛 Configurable: Get an output tailored for your needs. You are fine with
|
||||
UTF8? That'll safe you some bytes. Prefer to only have ASCII characters? We
|
||||
can do that as well!
|
||||
|
||||
## How to…
|
||||
|
||||
### …install `entities`
|
||||
|
||||
npm install entities
|
||||
|
||||
### …use `entities`
|
||||
|
||||
```javascript
|
||||
const entities = require("entities");
|
||||
|
||||
// Encoding
|
||||
entities.escapeUTF8("& ü"); // "& ü"
|
||||
entities.encodeXML("& ü"); // "& ü"
|
||||
entities.encodeHTML("& ü"); // "& ü"
|
||||
|
||||
// Decoding
|
||||
entities.decodeXML("asdf & ÿ ü '"); // "asdf & ÿ ü '"
|
||||
entities.decodeHTML("asdf & ÿ ü '"); // "asdf & ÿ ü '"
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
## Performance
|
||||
|
||||
This is how `entities` compares to other libraries on a very basic benchmark
|
||||
(see `scripts/benchmark.ts`, for 10,000,000 iterations; **lower is better**):
|
||||
|
||||
| Library | Version | `decode` perf | `encode` perf | `escape` perf |
|
||||
| -------------- | ------- | ------------- | ------------- | ------------- |
|
||||
| entities | `3.0.1` | 1.418s | 6.786s | 2.196s |
|
||||
| html-entities | `2.3.2` | 2.530s | 6.829s | 2.415s |
|
||||
| he | `1.2.0` | 5.800s | 24.237s | 3.624s |
|
||||
| parse-entities | `3.0.0` | 9.660s | N/A | N/A |

## FAQ
|
||||
|
||||
> What methods should I actually use to encode my documents?
|
||||
|
||||
If your target supports UTF-8, the `escapeUTF8` method is going to be your best
|
||||
choice. Otherwise, use either `encodeHTML` or `encodeXML` based on whether
|
||||
you're dealing with an HTML or an XML document.
|
||||
|
||||
You can have a look at the options for the `encode` and `decode` methods to see
|
||||
everything you can configure.
|
||||
|
||||
> When should I use strict decoding?
|
||||
|
||||
When strict decoding, entities not terminated with a semicolon will be ignored.
|
||||
This is helpful for decoding entities in legacy environments.
|
||||
|
||||
> Why should I use `entities` instead of alternative modules?
|
||||
|
||||
As of April 2022, `entities` is a bit faster than other modules. Still, this is
|
||||
not a very differentiated space and other modules can catch up.
|
||||
|
||||
**More importantly**, you might already have `entities` in your dependency graph
|
||||
(as a dependency of eg. `cheerio`, or `htmlparser2`), and including it directly
|
||||
might not even increase your bundle size. The same is true for other entity
|
||||
libraries, so have a look through your `node_modules` directory!
|
||||
|
||||
> Does `entities` support tree shaking?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes! `entities` ships as both a CommonJS and a ES module. Note that for best
|
||||
results, you should not use the `encode` and `decode` functions, as they wrap
|
||||
around a number of other functions, all of which will remain in the bundle.
|
||||
Instead, use the functions that you need directly.

## Acknowledgements
|
||||
|
||||
This libary wouldn't be possible without the work of these individuals. Thanks
|
||||
to
|
||||
|
||||
- [@mathiasbynens](https://github.com/mathiasbynens) for his explanations
|
||||
about character encodings, and his library `he`, which was one of the
|
||||
inspirations for `entities`
|
||||
- [@inikulin](https://github.com/inikulin) for his work on optimized tries for
|
||||
decoding HTML entities for the `parse5` project
|
||||
- [@mdevils](https://github.com/mdevils) for taking on the challenge of
|
||||
producing a quick entity library with his `html-entities` library.
|
||||
`entities` would be quite a bit slower if there wasn't any competition.
|
||||
Right now `entities` is on top, but we'll see how long that lasts!
