`endsWith`

Description

Returns true if a string ends with a given substring, otherwise return false.

Note

Unlike contains, which checks for a substring anywhere in the string, endsWith only matches the end.

Syntax

Like many functions in DataPrime, endsWith supports two notations, function and method notation. These interchangeable forms allow flexibility in how you structure expressions.

Function notationMethod notation

endsWith(value: string, suffix: string): bool

(value: string).endsWith(suffix: string): bool

Arguments

Name	Type	Required	Description
value	string	true	The string to test
suffix	string	true	The substring to match against the end of the string

Example

Check if an IBM Cloud CRN refers to a known COS bucket

IBM Cloud CRNs look like this:

crn:v1:bluemix:public:cloud-object-storage:global:a/59bcbfa6ea2f006b4ed7094c1a08dcdd:1a0ec336-f391-4091-a6fb-5e084a4c56f4:bucket:mybucket

To verify if the CRN points to mybucket, use endsWith:

Function notationMethod notation

create is_my_bucket from endsWith(crn, 'mybucket')

create is_my_bucket from crn.endsWith('mybucket')

Output

{
    "crn": "crn:v1:bluemix:public:cloud-object-storage:global:a/59bcbfa6ea2f006b4ed7094c1a08dcdd:1a0ec336-f391-4091-a6fb-5e084a4c56f4:bucket:mybucket",
    "is_my_bucket": true
}
