In netsuite suitescript 1.0, I want to check whether a string has a set of keywords. In javascript there is function called as .includes("Set_of_keywords_to_be_searched");
I tried .includes in netsuite but its giving error.
Eg:
var str = "Hello world, welcome to the javascript.";
var n = str.includes("world"); // this will return true
var n = str.includes("Apple"); // this will return false
I want similar function in netsuite.
Use a RegExp
and the test
method. See MDN Reference
Will look something like
var pattern = /world/;
var n = pattern.test(str);
String#includes
was only added in ES2015. NetSuite is running the Rhino 1.7 JS engine, which does not support any ES2015 or later features of JS.
I usually go for the search method, its easy to use and readable. If the word is found this method returns the index of the first occurrence and it will return -1 if it can't find the word(s).
var hasWorld = str.search("world") !=-1;
