Formatting

@gramio/format is built-in GramIO plugin. You can also use it outside of this framework because it is framework-agnostic.

See also API Reference.

Format

Template literal that helps construct message entities for text formatting.

Use if you want to strip all of the indentation from the beginning of each line. (like common-tags#stripindents)

NOTE: for format with arrays use it with join helper

ts
format
`some text`;
// or
format
`${
bold
`Hmm...`} ${
link
(
"GramIO", "https://github.com/gramiojs/gramio" )}?`;

Let's send something...

ts
bot
.
api
.
sendMessage
({
chat_id
: 12321,
text
:
format
`${
bold
`Hi!`}
Can ${
italic
("you")} help ${
spoiler
`me`}?
Can you give me a ${
link
("star", "https://github.com/gramiojs/gramio")}?`,
});
