PHP class to convert JS into valid bookmarklet links

Bookmarklet Gen

Convert (readable) Javascript code into bookmarklet links, _(*1)

Requires PHP 7.2 - 8.1, _(*2)

Features

• removes comments
• compresses code by removing extraneous spaces, but not within literal strings. Example: javascript function someName( param ) { alert( "this is a string" ) } will return: javascript function%20someName(param){alert("this%20is%20a%20string")}
• encodes what needs to be encoded
• wraps code into a self invoking function ready for bookmarking

This is basically a slightly enhanced PHP port of the excellent Bookmarklet Crunchinator: http://ted.mielczarek.org/code/mozilla/bookmarklet.html, _(*3)

Installation

If you are using Composer, add this requirement to your composer.json file and run composer install:, _(*4)

    {
        "require": {
            "ozh/bookmarkletgen": "1.2.0"
        }
    }

Or simply in the command line : composer install ozh/bookmarkletgen, _(*5)

If you're not using composer, download the class file and include it manually., _(*6)

Example

<?php
$javascript = <<<CODE
var link="http://google.com/"; // destination
window.location = link;
CODE;

require 'vendor/autoload.php'; // if you install using Composer
require 'path/to/Bookmarkletgen.php'; // otherwise

$book = new \Ozh\Bookmarkletgen\Bookmarkletgen;
$link = $book->crunch( $javascript );

printf( '<a href="%s">bookmarklet</a>', $link );

will print:, _(*7)

<a href="javascript:(function()%7Bvar%20link%3D%22http%3A%2F%2Fgoogle.com%2F%22%3Bwindow.location%3Dlink%3B%7D)()%3B">bookmarklet</a>

Tests

This library comes with unit tests to make sure the resulting crunched Javascript is valid code under various PHP versions., _(*8)

Current version supports PHP 7.2+ (previous releases were tested with PHP 5.3 - 7.1), _(*9)

License

Do whatever the hell you want to do with it, _(*10)
