Drafts Directory: Word-count of selection

Action

Posted by campjacob, Last update about 4 years ago

Javascript action to count the number of words currently selected in editor. I use it to count if a quote has 50 or more words to know if I need to use special blockquote formatting based on APA standards.

Install

Steps

script

(() => {

	const main = () =>
		alert(
			words(editor.getSelectedText())
			.length
			.toString() + ' words in selection'
		);
	
	// words :: String -> [String]
	const words = s => s.split(/\s+/);

	// MAIN ---
	main();
	
})()
