How To Split String Which Is In The Form An Array Using Javascript?

I have a string in the form of an array. Like.., '['123', '456', '789']'; '['abc', 'xyz']' I want to access the elements inside that is; '123', '456'... How can I do this in Javasc

Solution 1:

Here you go;

let str = "['123', '456', '789']"let res = str.slice(str.indexOf('[') + 1, str.length - 1)

let result = res.split(', ')

let req = []

result.map(item => {
let i = item.replace(/'/g, '')
req.push(i)
}) 

console.log(req)

Nothing special here. Used the in-built function slice to get the slice of the given string. Slice takes two args , starting index and end index. starting index character is included in the string, that is why, i am adding 1 to it to exclude '['. End index is excluded.

Then i splited the result at , , removed single quotes from every element. that is it.
