RegExp.escape(string)

Computes a new version of a String value in which certain characters have been escaped, so that the regular expression engine will interpret any metacharacters that it may contain as character literals.

When the escape function is called with one argument string, the following steps are taken:

1. Let string be ToString(string).
2. ReturnIfAbrupt(string).
3. Let length be the number of characters in string.
4. Let R be the empty string.

# I use SSH URLs in my submodules for convenience. However, Travis CI is unable to
# clone from those URLs even though the repositories are public. To fix this, I'm
# simply manipulating the .gitmodules file with sed so it points to the public
# URLs before initializing the submodules.
#
# Hope it saves you some frustration!
#

# disable the default submodule logic

I've created a little repository that simply exposes the final utility as npm module.

It's called html-escaper

there is basically one rule only: do not ever replace one char after another if you are transforming a string into another.
