Slice Parser

The Slice Parser returns a substring of the given text. It supports multiple parameter formats for convenience.

Aliases

  • slice, substr, substring

Usage

{slice(start):text} — returns substring from start to the end

{slice(start,end):text} — returns substring from start up to (but not including) end

{slice(start-end):text} — alternate syntax using a hyphen between indices

Examples

  • Input: {slice(3): Hello World} → lo World
  • Input: {slice(3,7): Hello World} → lo W
  • Input: {slice(3-7): Hello World} → lo W

Notes

  • Indices follow typical string-slice semantics (0-based). Negative indices behavior depends on the runtime; prefer positive indices for predictable results.
  • Use this parser to extract portions of text or variables.
