# utf8.js [](https://travis-ci.org/mathiasbynens/utf8.js) [](https://coveralls.io/r/mathiasbynens/utf8.js) [](https://gemnasium.com/mathiasbynens/utf8.js)
_utf8.js_ is a well-tested UTF-8 encoder/decoder written in JavaScript. Unlike many other JavaScript solutions, it is designed to be a _proper_ UTF-8 encoder/decoder: it can encode/decode any scalar Unicode code point values, as per [the Encoding Standard](https://encoding.spec.whatwg.org/#utf-8). [Here’s an online demo.](https://mothereff.in/utf-8)
Feel free to fork if you see possible improvements!
## Installation
Via [npm](https://www.npmjs.org/):
```bash
npm install utf8
```
Via [Bower](http://bower.io/):
```bash
bower install utf8
```
Via [Component](https://github.com/component/component):
```bash
component install mathiasbynens/utf8.js
```
In a browser:
```html
```
In [Narwhal](http://narwhaljs.org/), [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/), and [RingoJS ≥ v0.8.0](http://ringojs.org/):
```js
var utf8 = require('utf8');
```
In [Rhino](http://www.mozilla.org/rhino/):
```js
load('utf8.js');
```
Using an AMD loader like [RequireJS](http://requirejs.org/):
```js
require(
{
'paths': {
'utf8': 'path/to/utf8'
}
},
['utf8'],
function(utf8) {
console.log(utf8);
}
);
```
## API
### `utf8.encode(string)`
Encodes any given JavaScript string (`string`) as UTF-8, and returns the UTF-8-encoded version of the string. It throws an error if the input string contains a non-scalar value, i.e. a lone surrogate. (If you need to be able to encode non-scalar values as well, use [WTF-8](https://mths.be/wtf8) instead.)
```js
// U+00A9 COPYRIGHT SIGN; see http://codepoints.net/U+00A9
utf8.encode('\xA9');
// → '\xC2\xA9'
// U+10001 LINEAR B SYLLABLE B038 E; see http://codepoints.net/U+10001
utf8.encode('\uD800\uDC01');
// → '\xF0\x90\x80\x81'
```
### `utf8.decode(byteString)`
Decodes any given UTF-8-encoded string (`byteString`) as UTF-8, and returns the UTF-8-decoded version of the string. It throws an error when malformed UTF-8 is detected. (If you need to be able to decode encoded non-scalar values as well, use [WTF-8](https://mths.be/wtf8) instead.)
```js
utf8.decode('\xC2\xA9');
// → '\xA9'
utf8.decode('\xF0\x90\x80\x81');
// → '\uD800\uDC01'
// → U+10001 LINEAR B SYLLABLE B038 E
```
### `utf8.version`
A string representing the semantic version number.
## Support
utf8.js has been tested in at least Chrome 27-39, Firefox 3-34, Safari 4-8, Opera 10-28, IE 6-11, Node.js v0.10.0, Narwhal 0.3.2, RingoJS 0.8-0.11, PhantomJS 1.9.0, and Rhino 1.7RC4.
## Unit tests & code coverage
After cloning this repository, run `npm install` to install the dependencies needed for 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`.
## FAQ
### Why is the first release named v2.0.0? Haven’t you heard of [semantic versioning](http://semver.org/)?
Long before utf8.js was created, the `utf8` module on npm was registered and used by another (slightly buggy) library. @ryanmcgrath was kind enough to give me access to the `utf8` package on npm when I told him about utf8.js. Since there has already been a v1.0.0 release of the old library, and to avoid breaking backwards compatibility with projects that rely on the `utf8` npm package, I decided the tag the first release of utf8.js as v2.0.0 and take it from there.
