So let's say I have

Code

var object = {
    "ip" : '',
    "port" : '',
    "user" : '',
    "pass" : ''
};

And when I save stuff, I save it as:
127.0.0.1:8080:user:pass

How can I enter it like the following, as I will be saving up to a few hundred of proxies, they'll all be on a seperate line (for instance:
127.0.0.1:8080:user:pass
127.0.0.1:8080:user:pass
127.0.0.1:8080:user:pass
127.0.0.1:8080:user:pass

This will enter 4 proxies, but then they must be displayed like this inside the object:

Code

object = {
    "ip" : '127.0.0.1',
    "port" : '8080',
    "user" : 'user',
    "pass" : 'pass'
};}

Thank you in advance.

I have never done anything in Node.JS, but I'm assuming you can use pure Javascript here?

If so, the split() method should be what you want.

Your code could look something like this:

Code

var proxy = "127.0.0.1:8080:user:pass";

var splitArray = proxy.split(":"); //Separates your string into an array of substrings, separated by ':'.

if(splitArray.length == 4) //To make sure all 4 needed object attributes are in the string.
{
   var ip = splitArray[0];
   var port = splitArray[1];
   var user = splitArray[2];
   var pass = splitArray[3];

   //Add these to your object now :)
   ...
}

I haven't tested the code, so there might be some syntax errors, or otherwise I did something wrong. The idea of a working code should be the same or very similar to this though.

Split works perfectly, thank you!
I couldn't remember for the life of me what it was called lol.

Awesome, glad I could help :)

I keep calling it 'explode' too, like PHP does for a similar function 😝
