Effective Date: January 4, 2023
I want to extract the information after 'Final Doc Title:' tag. It should give me two values. The first value is IECC Com Update(#1) and IECC Res Update (#2). I have a code below that extracts the text after the tag until a new line character is found.
//8. Extract Final Doc Title
var final_doc_title = description.search("Final Doc Title:");
if(final_doc_title != -1){
final_doc_title = description.match(/(?<=^Final Doc Title:)[^\n\r]+/m);
final_doc_title = final_doc_title?.[0].trim();
}else{
final_doc_title = '';
}
console.log('Final Doc Title: ' + final_doc_title);
The problem with this code is it returns an empty string, because there is a newline character right after 'Final Doc Title:'.
Final Doc Title:\n
IECC Com Update(#1)\n
IECC Com Update(#1)\n
How will I modify my code to return two lines? Thanks!
You can match those newline characters with \s*, assuming you are not interested in white space that precedes the text you are looking for.
If the text you want to find ends just before the line that has a colon (like in Final Source Doc: https:....), then you could do the following:
