Routines summary

  • chop — Returns a string, chopped at nmb characters. Cuts down the string (if length is greater than nmb characters) to a string of max nmb chars.
  • contains — Returns true if character expression str2 is in character expression str1.
  • endsWith — Returns true if str1 ends with str2.
  • executeTemplate — Executes a template. All variables already defined in the script are passed to that template.
  • hashString — Returns a consistent hash to be used across systems. The hash is not guaranteed to be unique (i.e. two strings s1 != s2 may have the same hash).
  • indexOf — Returns the index of the first match of the str2 in str1 or -1 if str2 is nowhere to be found in str1.
  • isAlpha — Returns "true" if the provided argument str is a string containing only letters.
  • isAlphaNumeric — Returns "true" if the provided argument str is a string containing only letters and digits.
  • isDigit  — Returns "true" if the provided argument str is a string containing only digits.
  • isLower — Returns "true" if the provided argument str is a string containing only lowercase letters.
  • isNumeric — Returns "true" if the provided argument str is actually a number.
  • isUpper — Returns "true" if the provided argument str is a string containing only upper letters.
  • join — Returns the string obtained by concatenating all the strings from the array using the provided delimiter.
  • lastIndexOf — Returns the index of the last match of the str2 in str1 or -1 if str2 is nowhere to be found in str1.
  • length — Returns the length of the provided string, 0 if the string is null or has no chars.
  • matchEnd — Returns the position where the match ends or -1 if it doesn't match.
  • matches — Returns "true" if character expression string matches the regular expression regex.
  • matchStart — Returns the position where the match starts or -1 if it doesn't match.
  • matchText — Returns the text matched or empty string if it doesn't match.
  • replace — Replaces the search_str string with replacement_str in str and returns the resulting string. The string str is not modified.
  • split — Returns the array of strings computed by splitting this string around matches of the given regular expression.
  • startsWith — Returns "true" if str1 starts with str2.
  • substring — Returns substring is starting at index start and stop at index stop.
  • toLower — Returns the string only with lower case letters.
  • toUpper — Returns the string only with upper case letters.
  • trim — Returns a trimmed copy of the string passed as parameter with the leading and trailing whitespaces removed.
