indentString

Indents each line in the provided string.

Use String.replace and a regular expression to add the character specified by indent count times at the start of each line. Omit the third parameter, indent, to use a default indentation character of ' '.

const indentString = (str, count, indent = ' ') =>
  str.replace(/^/mg, indent.repeat(count));
indentString('Lorem\nIpsum', 2); // '  Lorem\n  Ipsum'
indentString('Lorem\nIpsum', 2, '_'); // '__Lorem\n__Ipsum'
