Hi all sorry if the title is not right but i don't know how to put it in a title haha, my first post!
explanation: I have a javascript code in a file and i want to put it as text in an Array! also heads up, i am using React-ts
Basically the js file:
console.log('test me')
const data = 'my data'
const numbData = 1233
const myObj = {data: 123123}
const myArr = ['ewqeqw', '132312']
function myFunc(param) {
console.log(param)
}
myFunc('testFunc')
What i tried:
const [updated, setUpdate] = useState<boolean>(false);
const [file, setFile] = useState();
const areaRef = useRef<HTMLTextAreaElement | null>(null);
const codeRef = useRef<HTMLParagraphElement | null>(null);
const reader = new FileReader();
function handleChange(event: any) {
setFile(event.target.files[0]);
}
reader.addEventListener('loadend', function () {
document.getElementById('newText').innerHTML = reader.result;
setUpdate(true);
});
if (file) {
reader.readAsText(file);
}
if (updated) {
let data = codeRef.current?.innerText;
let bodyTextArray = data?.split(/(\n)/);
console.log(data);
console.log(bodyTextArray);
}
What i get : Console Log result
What i want:
["console.log('test me')", "const data = 'my data'",
"const numbData = 1233", "const myObj = {data: 123123}",
"const myArr = ['ewqeqw', '132312']", "function myFunc(param) {
console.log(param) }", "myFunc('testFunc')"
]
Basically every peice of code (variable declaration, functions...) on it's own!
Thank you and any solution would be be appreciated!
There's no need to use regex in split function. You can simply do this:
let bodyTextArray = data?.split('\n');
It will be much easier if you put each statement on a single line (including your myFunc function). Then you can just split on newlines:
function splitLines (input: string, skipEmpty = true): string[] {
const lines: string[] = [];
// split on regular or windows new lines
for (const line of input.trim().split(/\r?\n/)) {
// if the line is empty, skip it
if (skipEmpty && !line.trim()) continue;
lines.push(line);
}
return lines;
}
const text = `
console.log('test me')
const data = 'my data'
const numbData = 1233
const myObj = {data: 123123}
const myArr = ['ewqeqw', '132312']
function myFunc(param) { console.log(param) }
myFunc('testFunc')
`;
console.log(splitLines(text));
Compiled JS from the TS playground:
"use strict";
function splitLines(input, skipEmpty = true) {
const lines = [];
// split on regular or windows new lines
for (const line of input.trim().split(/\r?\n/)) {
// if the line is empty, skip it
if (skipEmpty && !line.trim())
continue;
lines.push(line);
}
return lines;
}
const text = `
console.log('test me')
const data = 'my data'
const numbData = 1233
const myObj = {data: 123123}
const myArr = ['ewqeqw', '132312']
function myFunc(param) { console.log(param) }
myFunc('testFunc')
`;
console.log(splitLines(text));If you don't put each statement on one line, you'll have to write you own logic for determining where each "part of your code" begins and ends in the string, and split on that logic.
