Examples

All @zerodep packages support both ESM and CJS formats, each complete with Typescript typings.

// ESM
import { stringTrimLeft } from '@zerodep/string-trimleft';

// CJS
const { stringTrimLeft } = require('@zerodep/string-trimleft');
`

`javascript
// with the default separator (a space character)
stringTrimLeft(' some string '); // "some string "

// with a custom separator
stringTrimLeft('xx some string xx', 'x'); // " some string xx"

// with anything that is not a string
stringTrimLeft({ a: 'not string' }); // throws ZeroDepError: Value is not a string
