Function: tokenizeRecord()

tokenizeRecord(record, d, onUnknownEscape?): AstmField[]

Parameters

record

string

The raw record text.

d

Delimiters

The delimiters resolved from the header.

onUnknownEscape?

(fieldIndex) => void

Called (with the 1-based field index) for each unrecognized escape sequence encountered, so the caller can warn.

Returns

AstmField[]

The record's fields.

Example

import { tokenizeRecord, CANONICAL_DELIMITERS } from "@cosyte/astm";
const fields = tokenizeRecord("R|1|^^^687|28.6|U/L", CANONICAL_DELIMITERS);
fields[3].components[0]; // "28.6"
