将字符串拆分为多个输出字符串

Question

I'm having string like this

String input = "ABCD|opt/kelly/box.txt|DXC|20-12-2015 11:00:00"

I have tried lot of options by google-ing like indexOf() over load etc but could not get the exact result.

Is that possible I could have multiple output string on the basis of "|"

Expected output

String one = input.substring(0,input.indexOf("|")) = ABCD
String two = opt/kelly/box.txt
String three = DXC
String four = 20-12-2015 11:00:00

How can I do for the remaining ones ?

Any suggestion please how can I get this result using indexOf with substring.

Thanks in Advance !!

Answer 1

It's easy. All you need to do is to use .split :

 var input = "ABCD|opt/kelly/box.txt|DXC|20-12-2015 11:00:00"; input = input.split("|"); console.log(input); 

But if you need them in variables like one , two , etc., you might need to use destructuring assignment . You don't need to use .indexOf here.

Using Destructuring assignment

 var input = "ABCD|opt/kelly/box.txt|DXC|20-12-2015 11:00:00"; var [one, two, three, four] = input.split("|"); console.log(one); console.log(two); console.log(three); console.log(four); 

Answer 2

First, be aware that JavaScript doesn't allow you to declare your data type as you are doing with:

 String input ....

You can only declare the variable (ie var input ... )

Barring that, the .split() method (which splits a string based on your delimiter and returns an array of the parts to you) will do it.

Also, if you need to store each array element in its own variable, you can use a destructuring assignment to accomplish that.

 // Here's your scenario: var input = "ABCD|opt/kelly/box.txt|DXC|20-12-2015 11:00:00"; var one = input.substring(0,input.indexOf("|")) // ABCD // Do the remaining split on the original string without the already found parts var [two, three, four] = input.replace(one + "|","").split("|"); console.log(one); console.log(two); console.log(three); console.log(four); // Here'e a cleaner alternative that uses a destructuring assignment: var input2 = "ABCD|opt/kelly/box.txt|DXC|20-12-2015 11:00:00"; var [one2, two2, three2, four2] = input.split("|"); console.log(one2); console.log(two2); console.log(three2); console.log(four2);
