# sindent

Remove indentation from string literals in a predictable manner using template tags.

``` js

const sindent = require('sindent')

sindent`This string

  should only indent

    right here

  but nowhere else,

  as it's obvious we don't want

  the other indentations`

// This string

// should only indent

//   right here

// but nowhere else

// as it's obvious we don't want

// the other indentations

```

## Greedy mode

This "mode" makes the internal regex nice and hungry, so it'll accept an indentation of 0 as the smallest it finds.

This isn't _usually_ what you want, but it fits certain cases.

``` js

const sindent = require('sindent/greedy')

sindent`This line will be matched as the smallest,

  so this line will be indented`

// This line will be matched as the smallest

//   so this line will be indented

```

## Function mode

If you don't want to use template tags, you can also use _sindent_ as a normal function, accepting `str` and `greedy`.

``` js

const sindent = require('sindent/func')

sindent(`Let's start

  a greedy,

    greedy

indent`, true)

// Let's start

//   a greedy

//     greedy

// indent

```
