@happyvertical/utils

Foundation utilities for the HAVE SDK: ID generation, date parsing, URL handling, string conversion, error classes, logging, code extraction/validation/sandboxing, CLI argument parsing, and environment config loading.

Installation​

pnpm add @happyvertical/utils
# Published to GitHub Packages — requires .npmrc with @happyvertical registry

A browser-safe entry point is available at @happyvertical/utils/browser (excludes Node.js-specific code like node:vm sandbox and node:crypto hashing).

Usage​

ID Generation​

import { makeId, createId, isCuid } from '@happyvertical/utils';

const id = makeId();         // CUID2 (default)
const uuid = makeId('uuid'); // UUID via crypto.randomUUID()
const cuid = createId();     // CUID2 directly
isCuid(id);                  // true

String & URL Utilities​

import { camelCase, snakeCase, keysToCamel, keysToSnake, makeSlug, urlFilename, isUrl } from '@happyvertical/utils';

camelCase('hello-world');      // "helloWorld"
snakeCase('helloWorld');       // "hello_world"
keysToCamel({ user_name: 'j' }); // { userName: 'j' } (recursive)
makeSlug('My Title & Co.');   // "my-title-38-co"
urlFilename('https://example.com/path/file.pdf'); // "file.pdf"
isUrl('https://example.com'); // true

Date Utilities​

import { dateInString, formatDate, parseDate, parseAmazonDateString, addInterval } from '@happyvertical/utils';

dateInString('Report_January_15_2023.pdf'); // Date(2023, 0, 15)
formatDate(new Date(), 'yyyy-MM-dd');       // "2023-01-15"
parseDate('2023-01-15');                    // Date object (ISO)
parseDate('01/15/2023', 'MM/dd/yyyy');      // Date object (custom format)
parseAmazonDateString('20220223T215409Z');   // Date object
addInterval(new Date(), { days: 7 });       // Date 7 days from now

Error Classes​

All extend BaseError with code, context, and timestamp fields, plus toJSON():

import { ValidationError, ApiError, NetworkError, TimeoutError, ParsingError, FileError, DatabaseError } from '@happyvertical/utils';

throw new ValidationError('Invalid email', { field: 'email', value: input });

Code Extraction & Sandbox​

Extract code blocks from markdown/AI responses, validate, and execute in isolated node:vm contexts:

import { extractCodeBlock, extractJSON, validateCode, executeInSandbox } from '@happyvertical/utils';

const code = extractCodeBlock(markdownText, 'javascript');
const data = extractJSON<{ name: string }>(aiResponse);

const result = validateCode(code, { maxLength: 10000 });
if (result.valid) {
  const output = executeInSandbox(code, { globals: { data }, timeout: 5000 });
}

CLI Argument Parsing​

import { parseCliArgs } from '@happyvertical/utils';

const parsed = parseCliArgs(process.argv, [
  { name: 'build', description: 'Build project', options: { output: { type: 'string', description: 'Output dir' } } }
]);
// { command: 'build', args: [], options: { output: './dist' } }

Environment Config​

import { loadEnvConfig } from '@happyvertical/utils';

// Loads HAVE_AI_* env vars, merged with user options (user options take precedence)
const config = loadEnvConfig({ provider: 'openai' }, {
  packageName: 'ai',
  schema: { provider: 'string', model: 'string', timeout: 'number' }
});

Logging​

import { getLogger, setLogger, disableLogging } from '@happyvertical/utils';

const logger = getLogger();
logger.info('Started', { userId: 123 });
disableLogging(); // Switch to no-op logger
