# align-text [![NPM version](https://badge.fury.io/js/align-text.svg)](http://badge.fury.io/js/align-text) [![Build Status](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/align-text.svg)](https://travis-ci.org/jonschlinkert/align-text)
> Align the text in a string.
**Examples**
Align text values in an array:
```js
align([1, 2, 3, 100]);
//=> [' 1', ' 2', ' 3', '100']
```
Or [do stuff like this](./example.js):

Visit [the example](./example.js) to see how this works.
## Install
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/)
```sh
$ npm i align-text --save
```
## Usage
```js
var align = require('align-text');
align(text, callback_function_or_integer);
```
**Params**
* `text` can be a **string or array**. If a string is passed, a string will be returned. If an array is passed, an array will be returned.
* `callback|integer`: if an integer, the text will be indented by that amount. If a function, it must return an integer representing the amount of leading indentation to use as `align` loops over each line.
**Example**
```js
align(text, 4);
```
Would align:
```
abc
abc
abc
```
To:
```
abc
abc
abc
```
## callback
### params
The callback is used to determine the indentation of each line and gets the following params:
* `len` the length of the "current" line
* `longest` the length of the longest line
* `line` the current line (string) being aligned
* `lines` the array of all lines
### return
The callback may return:
* an integer that represents the number of spaces to use for padding,
* or an object with the following properties:
- `indent`: **{Number}** the amount of indentation to use. Default is `0` when an object is returned.
- `character`: **{String}** the character to use for indentation. Default is `''` (empty string) when an object is returned.
- `prefix`: **{String}** leading characters to use at the beginning of each line. `''` (empty string) when an object is returned.
**Integer example:**
```js
// calculate half the difference between the length
// of the current line and the longest line
function centerAlign(len, longest, line, lines) {
return Math.floor((longest - len) / 2);
}
```
**Object example:**
```js
function centerAlign(len, longest, line, lines) {
return {
character: '\t',
indent: Math.floor((longest - len) / 2),
prefix: '~ ',
}
}
```
## Usage examples
### Center align
Using the `centerAlign` function from above:
```js
align(text, centerAlign);
```
Would align this text:
```js
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
consectetur adipiscin
elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididun
ut labore et dolor
magna aliqua. Ut enim ad mini
veniam, quis
```
Resulting in this:
```
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
consectetur adipiscing
elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt
ut labore et dolore
magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim
veniam, quis
```
**Customize**
If you wanted to add more padding on the left, just pass the number in the callback.
For example, to add 4 spaces before every line:
```js
function centerAlign(len, longest, line, lines) {
return 4 + Math.floor((longest - len) / 2);
}
```
Would result in:
```
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
consectetur adipiscing
elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt
ut labore et dolore
magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim
veniam, quis
```
### Bullets
```js
align(text, function (len, max, line, lines) {
return {prefix: ' - '};
});
```
Would return:
```
- Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
- consectetur adipiscing
- elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt
- ut labore et dolore
- magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim
- veniam, quis
```
### Different indent character
```js
align(text, function (len, max, line, lines) {
return {
indent: Math.floor((max - len) / 2),
character: '~',
};
});
```
Would return
```
~~~~~Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
~~~~~~~~consectetur adipiscing
elit, sed do eiusmod tempor incididunt
~~~~~~~~~ut labore et dolore
~~~~magna aliqua. Ut enim ad minim
~~~~~~~~~~~~~veniam, quis
```
