## What is this?

This package is a small utility that checks if a node is whitespace according to
HTML.

## When should I use this?

This utility is super niche, if you’re here you probably know what you’re
looking for!

## Install

This package is [ESM only][esm].
In Node.js (version 16+), install with [npm][]:

```sh
npm install hast-util-whitespace
```

In Deno with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```js
import {whitespace} from 'https://esm.sh/hast-util-whitespace@3'
```

In browsers with [`esm.sh`][esmsh]:

```html
<script type="module">
  import {whitespace} from 'https://esm.sh/hast-util-whitespace@3?bundle'
</script>
```

## Use

```js
import {whitespace} from 'hast-util-whitespace'

whitespace({
  type: 'element',
  tagName: 'div',
  properties: {},
  children: []
}) // => false

whitespace({
  type: 'text',
  value: '\t  \n'
}) // => true

whitespace({
  type: 'text',
  value: '  text\f'
}) // => false
```

## API

This package exports the identifier [`whitespace`][api-whitespace].
There is no default export.

### `whitespace(thing)`

Check if the given value is [*inter-element whitespace*][spec].

###### Parameters

*   `thing` ([`Node`][node] or `string`, optional)
    — thing to check

###### Returns

Whether the `value` is inter-element whitespace (`boolean`): consisting of zero
or more of space, tab (`\t`), line feed (`\n`), carriage return (`\r`), or form
feed (`\f`).
If a node is passed it must be a [`Text`][text] node, whose `value` field is
checked.

## Types

This package is fully typed with [TypeScript][].
It exports no additional types.

## Compatibility

Projects maintained by the unified collective are compatible with maintained
versions of Node.js.

When we cut a new major release, we drop support for unmaintained versions of
Node.
This means we try to keep the current release line, `hast-util-whitespace@^3`,
compatible with Node.js 16.

## Security

`hast-util-whitespace` does not change the syntax tree so there are no openings
for [cross-site scripting (XSS)][xss] attacks.
