I JavaScript the ` is very useful when writing big strings. My problem is that it takes into account the amount of white space before it in the JavaScript. So if your string is indented in the JavaScript, then it will be indented in the string as well. Is there any way to get rid of this?
Because in an example like this I would like the html tag to be flush against the left side in the string, but I do not want to make it flush against the left side in the JavaScript. Check how the console.log turns out to understand it better.
MyFunction = function() {
console.log(`
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
`);
}
MyFunction();console.log:
301
Since you want them html tag to be flush against the left side, but still want head and body indented relatively, what you're looking for is to replace set of 4 spaces in the beginning of each line with an empty string.
string.replace(/^ {4}/gm, '')
Here's the live code ..
MyFunction = function() {
console.log(`
<html>
<head>
</head>
<body>
</body>
</html>
`.replace(/^ {4}/gm, ''));
}
