How to replace spaces middle of string in Dart?

Question

I have string as shown below. In dart trim() its removes the whitespace end of the string. My question is: How to replace spaces middle of string in Dart?

Example-1:

 - Original: String _myText = "Netflix.com.          Amsterdam";
 - Expected Text: "Netflix.com. Amsterdam"


Example-2:

 - Original: String _myText = "The dog has a    long      tail.  ";
 - Expected Text: "The dog has a long tail."

Answer 1

Using RegExp like

String result = _myText.replaceAll(RegExp(' +'), ' ');

Answer 2

In my case I had tabs, spaces and carriage returns mixed in (i thought it was just spaces to start)

You can use:

String result = _myText.replaceAll(RegExp('\\s+'), ' ');

If you want to replace all extra whitespace with just a single space.
