Find the substring / element between the $start and $end argument.
Developers often need to find a string between two elements. This package will simplify that task by abstract away the regex part.
$ npm i --save among
const among = require('among');
const str = 'The [quick] [brown] {{fox}} $jumps$ over the [lazy] {{dog}}';
let find = among('{{', '}}');
console.log(find(str));
find = among('[', ']', true);
console.log(find(str));
console.log(among('$', '$')(str));
Result:
[ 'fox', 'dog' ]
[ '[quick]', '[brown]', '[lazy]' ]
[ 'jumps' ]
const find = among(string $start, string $end [, boolean $preserved]);
find(string $str)
-
$start is the first string to match
-
$end is the last string to match
-
$preserved is if the $start and $end strings should be preserved(optional)
-
$str the input string to search for elements
