So I have a .txt file that has the entire dictionary in it. It is separated so that each line is a new word:
EX:
this
is
what
it
looks
like
I need help in putting all of these words into a single array. I am new to Javascript so give me a break if this is a dumb question.
You need to use a regex to "split" your string on the newline (\n), like so:
var dictionary = "this\nis\nwhat\nit\nlooks\nlike"
dictionary.split(/[\n]+/g)
// -> ["this", "is", "what", "it", "looks", "like"]
You can learn more about regex and play with it at http://regexr.com/3d4rr

I would to exclude first and last word from the string in JS regex. Please suggest.
Example strings
QueueName default_queue end
QueueName default queue end
I would like to match default_queue and default queue
You could use capture groups
var str = "QueueName default_queue end"
var matchArray = str.match(/^\w+\s+(.+)\s+\w+$/) // capture with paranthesis
console.log(matchArray[1]) // default_queue

I have the following user queries:
Boeing AND Airbus OR twitter
Boeing AND Airbus
I need to split words in them by AND, OR so, in the end, I will have something like this:
"Boeing" AND "Airbus"
"Boeing" AND "Airbus" OR "twitter"
How can I do this with split or any other method?
Step by step:
split on space
Iterate through elements, if is NOT "and" or "OR" -> quote
const sentence = "Boeing AND Airbus OR twitter"
const split = sentence.split(" ");
const quoted = split.map(e => ["AND", "OR"].includes(e)?e:'"'+e+'"')
console.log(quoted.join(" "))

I want the text which is outside of brackets, for eg.
Text is - Outside (inside)
and what I expect is - Outside
Can someone please help me to achieve this.
You can use slice & use indexOf to get the first (. This will extract all the characters before first (
let str = 'Outside (inside)'
let substr = str.slice(0, str.indexOf('('));
console.log(substr.trim())
If you wanted to remove all bracketed text from the string you could use
let str = 'Outside (inside)test(d 342 dd3d)dd(t423t t)dd()fasf(fsdfds32dfs)';
console.log(str.replace(/(\([\w\d ]*\))+/g, ''))

I need to split${SOMENAME} (${THISNAME}) ${THESENAME}
I just need to extract the words SOMENAME THISNAME and THESENAME from the above string. Is it possible?
You can pass in a regular expression separator as part of the .split() function.
var string = "${SOMENAME} (${THISNAME}) ${THESENAME}";
var re = /\W+/;
var arr = string.split(re);
document.write(arr);
Take a look at String.prototype.split for more information.
If you only need extract the words, this could be a simple solution:
var s = "${SOMENAME} (${THISNAME}) ${THESENAME}";
var words = s.match(/([A-Z])\w+/g);

How to split string with several char
i have to split a scope when there are spaces, comma, dash, etc..( ponctuation) and when words are concatenated ( without a space between variable)
For exemple
testOne="{{test.test}} {{test.test}}{{test.test}}";
The expected output is
"test.test test.testtest.test"
(There are two comma between the first and the second text.text)
You can use Regular Expression to get the result what you wanted.
testOne = "{{test.test}} {{test.test}}{{test.test}}";
console.log(testOne.match(/{{.*?}}/g).map(function(item) {
return item.replace(/[{}]/g, "");
}));
# [ 'test.test', 'test.test', 'test.test' ]
You can achieve your desired output with a simple replace
testOne.replace(/{{(.*?)}}/g, '$1');
// "test.test test.testtest.test"
Remember to set this back to testOne if you want it kept as that variable
