A very simple browser script to parse html strings into document fragments.

Install the package with yarn or npm.

yarn add string-to-html 
# Or use npm
npm install string-to-html

If you want to use this directly in your browser download and include the dist/string-to-html.js file in a script tag on your page.

<script src="./string-to-html.js"><script>

Example usage:

import toHtml from 'string-to-html'; // Omit this line if you use the es5 version.

const people = ['Alfred', 'Jodocus', 'Kwak', 'Dolf'];

const htmlString = `
  <ul>
    ${ people.map(name => `<li>${ name }</li>`).join('') }
  </ul>
`;

const fragment = toHtml(htmlString);
document.body.appendChild(fragment);

For when you want to use vanilla JS and parse html strings into a DOM fragments. It's saves a time and is much easier than using document.createFragment() and appending document.createElement() as child elements.

Why a domfragment instead of innerHTML ? Because you can do DOM operations on the fragment before inserting in into the document.

• Install depedencies with yarn install.
• To bundle and transpile run yarn build this will output a transpiled, common js and es2015 module version of string-to-html.js to the dist/ directory.
• Run tests with yarn test or open test.html in your browser after running yarn build-test.
