trim

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

function trim(str, chars?): string;

Removes matching characters from both ends of a string.

By default, the function trims leading and trailing whitespace using the platform's built-in whitespace semantics.

When chars is provided, only those characters are trimmed from the start and end of the string. A string value is interpreted as a set of individual characters, and an array combines all characters from all entries. For example, trim("__value--", "_-") and trim("__value--", ["_", "-"]) both return "value".

Characters are removed only at the outer edges; matching characters inside the string are preserved.

Parameters

Returns

string

A copy of str without the matching leading and trailing characters.

Examples

trim("  hello  ")
// "hello"

trim("__hello--", ["_", "-"])
// "hello"
