How to slice part of string from the middle to the end using javascript

Question

I have string like this:

река Марица - гр. Първомай + Maritsa - 132543 - HPoint-Water level

I want to get only Maritsa - 132543 - HPoint-Water level with javascript.

For now I get the string and console log all string, but I need to cut the cyrillic string and - before Maritsa. The problem is that the loaded names are always different. Is there a way to delete everything before the + including it and show everything after the +

Because this data is loaded in a dropdown and from the selected value I want to take only that part that I need to be submitted as a parameter in another request. — Ben Johnson

you need some definition. the length does not work, it returns 'tsa - 132543 - HPoint-Water level' — Nina Scholz

You could replace the unwanted part.

const s = 'река Марица - гр. Първомай + Maritsa - 132543 - HPoint-Water level';

console.log(s.replace(/.*\+\s?/, ''));

You can combine String.prototype.indexOf (which returns the first occurence of a char) and Array.prototype.slice (to return the string only after a certain index, here after the + and the space after it) :

const name = 'река Марица - гр. Първомай + Maritsa - 132543 - HPoint-Water level'

const cutString = string => string.slice(string.indexOf('+') + 2)
//           add 2 to also remove the + and the space after it ^ 

console.log(`"${ cutString(name) }"`)

Hope it helped you !
