Remove first folder in string

Question

I have a folder path that always starts with a certain string which I want to remove. Let's say it looks like this:

my-bucket/2929023/32822323/file.jpg

I want it to look like this:

2929023/32822323/file.jpg

How would I do that?

Answer 1

You could use a simple replace method if the string is only present once;

var string = "my-bucket/2929023/32822323/file.jpg";

var revisedString = string.replace('my-bucket/', '');

console.log(revisedString);

However, you're also able to use a Regex (regular expression) to remove it as well, something like;

var string = "my-bucket/2929023/32822323/file.jpg";

console.log(string.replace(/^my-bucket\//, ''));
