Put quotes around a variable string in JavaScript

Question

I have a JavaScript variable:

var text = \"http://example.com\"

Text can be multiple links. How can I put \'\' around the variable string?<

Answer 1

let's think urls = "http://example1.com http://example2.com"

function somefunction(urls){
var urlarray = urls.split(" ");
var text = "\"'" + urlarray[0] + "'\"";
}

output will be text = "'http://example1.com'"

Answer 2

var text = "\"http://www.example1.com\"; \"http://www.example2.com\"";

Using escape sequence of " (quote), you can achieve this

You can place singe quote (') inside double quotes without any issues Like this

var text = "'http://www.ex.com';'http://www.ex2.com'"

Answer 3

You can add these single quotes with template literals:

var text = "http://example.com"
var quoteText = `'${text}'`

console.log(quoteText)

Docs are here. Browsers that support template literals listed here.

Answer 4

You can escape " with \

var text="\"word\"";

Answer 5

var text = "\"http://example.com\""; 

Whatever your text, to wrap it with ", you need to put them and escape inner ones with \. Above will result in:

"http://example.com"

Answer 6

This can be one of several solutions:

var text = "http://example.com";

JSON.stringify(text).replace('\"', '\"\'').replace(/.$/, '\'"')
