Function textBetween

Extracts text from between two substrings in a string.

Example

Here's a simple text extraction example:

const text = 'Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.';
textBetween(text, 'ipsum', 'consectetur');
// => { ok: true, value: 'dolor sit amet,' }
Copy

Example

Here are some examples where the delimiters are special chars to escape:

textBetween('[music=zap]', '[', ']')
// => { ok: true, value: 'music=zap' }

textBetween('^music=zap.', '^', '.')
// => { ok: true, value: 'music=zap' }

textBetween('music&playlist?kc|zap', '?', '|')
// => { ok: true, value: 'kc' }
Copy

Example

Handle an invalid input string:

textBetween(42, '[', ']')
 // => { ok: false, error: Error('[strings.textBetween] Expected string value as input') }
Copy
