# Punycode.js [](https://travis-ci.org/bestiejs/punycode.js) [](https://coveralls.io/r/bestiejs/punycode.js) [](https://gemnasium.com/bestiejs/punycode.js)
|
||
|
||
A robust Punycode converter that fully complies to [RFC 3492](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3492) and [RFC 5891](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5891), 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](http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3492#appendix-C)
|
||
* [`punycode.c` by _Markus W. Scherer_ (IBM)](http://opensource.apple.com/source/ICU/ICU-400.42/icuSources/common/punycode.c)
|
||
* [`punycode.c` by _Ben Noordhuis_](https://github.com/bnoordhuis/punycode/blob/master/punycode.c)
|
||
* [JavaScript implementation by _some_](http://stackoverflow.com/questions/183485/can-anyone-recommend-a-good-free-javascript-for-punycode-to-unicode-conversion/301287#301287)
|
||
* [`punycode.js` by _Ben Noordhuis_](https://github.com/joyent/node/blob/426298c8c1c0d5b5224ac3658c41e7c2a3fe9377/lib/punycode.js) (note: [not fully compliant](https://github.com/joyent/node/issues/2072))
|
||
|
||
This project is [bundled](https://github.com/joyent/node/blob/master/lib/punycode.js) with [Node.js v0.6.2+](https://github.com/joyent/node/compare/975f1930b1...61e796decc).
|
||
|
||
## Installation
|
||
|
||
Via [npm](http://npmjs.org/) (only required for Node.js releases older than v0.6.2):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
npm install punycode
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Via [Bower](http://bower.io/):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
bower install punycode
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Via [Component](https://github.com/component/component):
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
component install bestiejs/punycode.js
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In a browser:
|
||
|
||
```html
|
||
<script src="punycode.js"></script>
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In [Narwhal](http://narwhaljs.org/), [Node.js](http://nodejs.org/), and [RingoJS](http://ringojs.org/):
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
var punycode = require('punycode');
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
In [Rhino](http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/):
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
load('punycode.js');
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Using an AMD loader like [RequireJS](http://requirejs.org/):
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
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.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
// decode domain name parts
|
||
punycode.decode('maana-pta'); // 'mañana'
|
||
punycode.decode('--dqo34k'); // '☃-⌘'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### `punycode.encode(string)`
|
||
|
||
Converts a string of Unicode symbols to a Punycode string of ASCII symbols.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
// encode domain name parts
|
||
punycode.encode('mañana'); // 'maana-pta'
|
||
punycode.encode('☃-⌘'); // '--dqo34k'
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### `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.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
// decode domain names
|
||
punycode.toUnicode('xn--maana-pta.com');
|
||
// → 'mañana.com'
|
||
punycode.toUnicode('xn----dqo34k.com');
|
||
// → '☃-⌘.com'
|
||
|
||
// decode email addresses
|
||
punycode.toUnicode('джумла@xn--p-8sbkgc5ag7bhce.xn--ba-lmcq');
|
||
// → '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.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
// encode domain names
|
||
punycode.toASCII('mañana.com');
|
||
// → 'xn--maana-pta.com'
|
||
punycode.toASCII('☃-⌘.com');
|
||
// → 'xn----dqo34k.com'
|
||
|
||
// encode email addresses
|
||
punycode.toASCII('джумла@джpумлатест.bрфa');
|
||
// → '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](https://mathiasbynens.be/notes/javascript-encoding), 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.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
punycode.ucs2.decode('abc');
|
||
// → [0x61, 0x62, 0x63]
|
||
// surrogate pair for U+1D306 TETRAGRAM FOR CENTRE:
|
||
punycode.ucs2.decode('\uD834\uDF06');
|
||
// → [0x1D306]
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
#### `punycode.ucs2.encode(codePoints)`
|
||
|
||
Creates a string based on an array of numeric code point values.
|
||
|
||
```js
|
||
punycode.ucs2.encode([0x61, 0x62, 0x63]);
|
||
// → 'abc'
|
||
punycode.ucs2.encode([0x1D306]);
|
||
// → '\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`.
