indent

Import from @varavel/vdl-plugin-sdk/utils/strings.

function indent(input, prefix?): string;

Adds an indentation prefix to every non-blank line in a multi-line string.

This is the inverse operation of dedent and is useful when injecting a generated block inside a nested structure (for example, inside a class, interface, or function body).

Empty and whitespace-only lines are preserved without extra indentation to avoid introducing trailing spaces.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default value	Description
input	string	undefined	Multi-line string to indent.
prefix	string	" "	String to prepend to each non-blank line. Defaults to two spaces.

Returns

string

The input text with indentation applied line by line.

Examples

indent("name: string;\nactive: boolean;");
// returns "  name: string;\n  active: boolean;"

indent("field string\nfield int", "\t");
// returns "\tfield string\n\tfield int"
