Package description

What is remove-trailing-spaces?

The remove-trailing-spaces npm package is designed to help developers clean up their code by removing unnecessary trailing spaces from the end of each line in a given text or file. This can be particularly useful for maintaining coding standards, improving readability, and avoiding potential issues in languages or environments where trailing spaces might cause errors or unexpected behavior.

What are remove-trailing-spaces's main functionalities?

Remove trailing spaces from a string

This feature allows you to remove trailing spaces from a given string. It's useful for cleaning up individual lines of text or strings that may have been formatted with extra spaces at the end.

"use strict";\nconst removeTrailingSpaces = require('remove-trailing-spaces');\nlet stringWithTrailingSpaces = 'Hello World!   ';\nlet cleanedString = removeTrailingSpaces(stringWithTrailingSpaces);\nconsole.log(cleanedString); // 'Hello World!'

Integrate with file processing

This feature demonstrates how remove-trailing-spaces can be used in conjunction with Node.js's file system module (fs) to read a file, clean it by removing trailing spaces, and then write the cleaned data to a new file. It's particularly useful for batch processing of files or cleaning up source code files.

"use strict";\nconst fs = require('fs');\nconst removeTrailingSpaces = require('remove-trailing-spaces');\nfs.readFile('example.txt', 'utf8', (err, data) => {\n  if (err) throw err;\n  const cleanedData = removeTrailingSpaces(data);\n  fs.writeFile('example_cleaned.txt', cleanedData, (err) => {\n    if (err) throw err;\n    console.log('File has been cleaned!');\n  });\n});

:sparkling_heart: Support my projects

I open-source almost everything I can, and I try to reply to everyone needing help using these projects. Obviously, this takes time. You can integrate and use these projects in your applications for free! You can even change the source code and redistribute (even resell it).

However, if you get some profit from this or just want to encourage me to continue creating stuff, there are few ways you can do it:

  • Starring and sharing the projects you like :rocket:

  • Buy me a book—I love books! I will remember you after years if you buy me one. :grin: :book:

  • PayPal—You can make one-time donations via PayPal. I'll probably buy a coffee tea. :tea:

  • Support me on Patreon—Set up a recurring monthly donation and you will get interesting news about what I'm doing (things that I don't share with everyone).

  • Bitcoin—You can send me bitcoins at this address (or scanning the code below): 1P9BRsmazNQcuyTxEqveUsnf5CERdq35V6

Thanks! :heart:
