String.prototype.padEnd()

The padEnd() method pads the current string with a given string (repeated, if needed) so that the resulting string reaches a given length. The padding is applied from the end of the current string.

Syntax

str.padEnd(targetLength [, padString])

Parameters

targetLength
The length of the resulting string once the current string has been padded. If the value is lower than the current string's length, the current string will be returned as is.
padString Optional
The string to pad the current string with. If this string is too long to stay within the target length, it will be truncated: for left-to-right languages the left-most part and for right-to-left languages the right-most will be applied. The default value for this parameter is " " (U+0020).

Return value

A String of the specified length with the pad string applied at the end of the current string.

Examples

'abc'.padEnd(10);          // "abc       "
'abc'.padEnd(10, "foo");   // "abcfoofoof"
'abc'.padEnd(6, "123456"); // "abc123"
'abc'.padEnd(1);           // "abc"

Polyfill

Running the following code before any other code will create String.prototype.padEnd() if it's not natively available.

if (!String.prototype.padEnd) {
    String.prototype.padEnd = function padEnd(targetLength,padString) {
        targetLength = targetLength>>0; //floor if number or convert non-number to 0;
        padString = String((typeof padString !== 'undefined' ? padString : ' '));
        if (this.length > targetLength) {
            return String(this);
        }
        else {
            targetLength = targetLength-this.length;
            if (targetLength > padString.length) {
                padString += padString.repeat(targetLength/padString.length); //append to original to ensure we are longer than needed
            }
            return String(this) + padString.slice(0,targetLength);
        }
    };
}
