Package Exports

undent
undent/dist/index.js

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (undent) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

undent

Remove indentation from multi-line strings.

Installation

npm

npm install undent -g

Usage

import undent from 'undent';
//use as a function
const first = undent(`multi-line\n\tindented\nstring`); // "multi-line\n\t\nstring"

//use as a template literal tag
const second = undent`
    multi-line
        indented
    string
`; // "multi-line\n    indented\nstring"

The algorithm

undent finds the line with the least amount of indentation (excluding whitespace-only lines), and then removes that amount of indentation from every line.

For example:

const text = undent`
        two levels in
    one level in
                three levels in
`;
console.log(text);

prints

    two levels in
one level in
            three levels in

Features

remove leading indentation based on the smallest indentation found for all lines (excluding whitespace-only lines)
trim the end of every line
remove leading/trailing newlines
retain existing newline characters (\r or \r\n)
