outdent

Removes leading indentation from ES6 template strings

ES6 template strings are great, but they preserve everything between the backticks, including leading spaces. Sometimes I want to indent my template literals to make my code more readable without including all those spaces in the string.

Outdent will remove those leading spaces, as well as the leading and trailing newlines.

Usage

Import outdent using your module system of choice.

CommonJS:

const outdent = require('outdent');

ES6 Modules & TypeScript:

import outdent from 'outdent';

Examples

import outdent from 'outdent';

const markdown = outdent`
    # My Markdown File

    Here is some indented code:

        console.log("hello world!");
`;

console.log(markdown);

fs.writeFileSync('output.md', markdown);

The contents of output.md do not have the leading indentation:

# My Markdown File

Here is some indented code:

    console.log("hello world!");

As a JavaScript string:

var markdown = '# My Markdown File\n' +
               '\n' +
               'Here is some indented code:' +
               '\n' +
               '    console.log("hello world!");';

You can pass options to outdent to control its behavior. They are explained in Options.

const output = outdent({trimLeadingNewline: false, trimTrailingNewline: false})`
    Hello world!
`;

assert(output === '\nHello world!\n');

You can explicitly specify the indentation level by passing outdent as the first interpolated value. Its position sets the indentation level and it is removed from the output:

const output = outdent`
      ${outdent}
        Yo
    12345
          Hello world
`;

assert(output === '  Yo\n345\n    Hello world');

Note: ${outdent} must be alone on its own line without anything before or after it. It cannot be preceded by any non-whitespace characters. If these conditions are not met, outdent will follow normal indentation-detection behavior.

Outdent can also remove indentation from plain strings via the string method.

const output = outdent.string('\n    Hello world!\n');

assert(output === 'Hello world!');

Options

trimLeadingNewline

Default: true

trimTrailingNewline

Default: true

Whether or not outdent should remove the leading and/or trailing newline from your template string. For example:

var s = outdent({trimLeadingNewline: false})`
    Hello
`;

assert(s === '\nHello');

s = outdent({trimTrailingNewline: false})`
    Hello
`

assert(s === 'Hello\n');

s = outdent({trimLeadingNewline: false, trimTrailingNewline: false})`

`;

assert(s === '\n\n');

Gotchas

Start on a new line

Start the contents of your template string on a new line after the opening backtick. Otherwise, outdent has no choice but to detect indentation from the second line, which does not work in all situations.

// Bad
const output = outdent `* item 1
                          * sub-item
`;
// output === '* item 1\n* sub-item'; Indentation of sub-item is lost

// Good
const output = outdent `
    * item 1
      * sub-item
`;

Spaces and tabs

Spaces and tabs are treated identically. outdent does not verify that you are using spaces or tabs consistently; they are all treated as a single character for the purpose of removing indentation. Spaces, tabs, and smart tabs should all work correctly provided you use them consistently.

TypeScript declarations

This module includes TypeScript type declarations so you will get code completion and error-checking without installing anything else.
