Removes common leading whitespace from multiline strings. Inspired by [`textwrap.dedent`](https://docs.python.org/3/library/textwrap.html#textwrap.dedent) in Python.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Usage / example
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Imagine the following snippet that prints a multiline string. You want the indentation to both look nice in the code as well as in the actual output.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```go
|
||
|
|
package main
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
import (
|
||
|
|
"fmt"
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
"github.com/renstrom/dedent"
|
||
|
|
)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
func main() {
|
||
|
|
s := `Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
|
||
|
|
consectetur adipiscing elit.
|
||
|
|
Curabitur justo tellus, facilisis nec efficitur dictum,
|
||
|
|
fermentum vitae ligula. Sed eu convallis sapien.`
|
||
|
|
fmt.Println(dedent.Dedent(s))
|
||
|
|
fmt.Println("-------------")
|
||
|
|
fmt.Println(s)
|
||
|
|
}
|
||
|
|
```
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To illustrate the difference, here's the output:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```bash
|
||
|
|
$ go run main.go
|
||
|
|
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
|
||
|
|
consectetur adipiscing elit.
|
||
|
|
Curabitur justo tellus, facilisis nec efficitur dictum,
|
||
|
|
fermentum vitae ligula. Sed eu convallis sapien.
|
||
|
|
-------------
|
||
|
|
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet,
|
||
|
|
consectetur adipiscing elit.
|
||
|
|
Curabitur justo tellus, facilisis nec efficitur dictum,
|
||
|
|
fermentum vitae ligula. Sed eu convallis sapien.
|
||
|
|
```
