trimmest [![Build Status][travis-badge]][travis]

Trims leading and trialing whitespace off of a string, with optional
specified start and end indices.

Semantically equivalent to [String.prototype.trim][trim], but much
faster for strings with little or no whitespace.

Also provides trimStart/trimLeft and trimEnd/trimRight methods.

Installation

``bash
npm install trimmest
`

Usage

`javascript
var trimmest = require('trimmest')

trimmest(' ') // => ''
trimmest(' \n\t\r') // => ''
trimmest(' test ') // => 'test'

trimmest.trimStart(' test ') // => 'test '
trimmest.trimLeft(' test ') // => 'test '

trimmest.trimEnd(' test ') // => ' test'
trimmest.trimRight(' test ') // => ' test'


// Optional start and end indices, which is convenient for trimming
// during string parsing.
// Whitespace will be trimmed around these indices.
trimmest('test1, test2', / start / 6) // => 'test2'
trimmest('test1, test2', undefined, / end / 7) // => 'test1'
