About the "Text to Array" tool

"Text to Array" is a utility tool that converts a block of text into a JavaScript array. It splits the input text using a customizable delimiter, allowing you to transform raw text into structured data for further processing or display.

Use cases

Common scenarios for using this tool:

  1. CSV-like Data Parsing: Convert comma-separated or tab-separated text into an array for easy manipulation, such as importing data from spreadsheets or logs.
  2. List Generation: Quickly turn a list of items (e.g., names, tasks, or keywords) into a JavaScript array for use in applications or scripts.
  3. Text Processing: Clean and split large blocks of text into manageable chunks, such as parsing configuration files or user input.

Tool settings

Configure how the tool processes your text:

  1. "Delimiter":Specify the character or string used to split the text (e.g., comma, semicolon, or custom symbol).
  2. "Treat new line as delimiter":If enabled, each new line in the input text will be treated as a separate item in the output array.
  3. "Ignore empty lines":Skip empty lines in the input text, ensuring the output array only contains non-empty items.
  4. "Trim each item":Remove leading and trailing whitespace from each item in the output array for cleaner results.

How to use

How to use the tool:

  1. Paste or type your text into the input field.
  2. Configure the settings (delimiter, new line handling, etc.) as needed.
  3. Copy the output array for use in your project or application.
