I'm receiving data in this form
('FCA',)
('JP NIC',)
('JP CHI',)
('2022-03-04T07:18:36.468Z',)
I want to clean up to remove Brackets, string quote and comma
FCA
JP NIC
JP CHI

I'm trying to use substring() But problem is number of characters in this data can be changed but these value are constant and I want to remove them ('',). How I can do this ?
you can use regex and string.replace
string.replace(/[|&;$%@"<>()+,]/g, "");
just put whatever string you want to ignore inside the rectangular brackets, i.e - string.replace(/[YOUR_IGNORED_CHARACTERS]/g, "")
you can read more about regex here
Use this regex:
const regex = /\('([^']+)',\)/g
const output = input.replace(regex, '$1');
// explain: / \( ' ( [^']+ ) ',\) / g
// 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
( (character / to escape)''',)$1 in code is first group match regex (start with 4 and end with 6)const input = `('FCA',)
('JP NIC',)
('JP CHI',)
('2022-03-04T07:18:36.468Z',)`;
const output = input.replace(/\('([^']+)',\)/g, '$1');
console.log(input)
console.log('// =>')
console.log(output)You could use a regex replacement with a capture group:
var inputs = ["('FCA',)", "('JP NIC',)", "('JP CHI',)", "('2022-03-04T07:18:36.468Z',)"];
var outputs = inputs.map(x => x.replace(/\('(.*?)',\)/g, "$1"));
console.log(outputs);I think you are looking for String.Replace.
Replace: You can specify characters or even strings to be replaced in string.

Maybe i would create a custom method that handles the replacing and call that method with the proper parameters.
