convert this string to an object with JavaScript with a non-conforming format [duplicate]

Question

I'd like to convert this string:

"Allergies: adas \n other: asdasdfgfdfbfb \n hola:hola"

to an object like

{
"Allergies":"adas",
"other":"asdasdfgfdfbfb",
"hola":"hola"
}

How can I achieve this, including the removal of the whitespace?

Use split() multiple times. First to split it into lines at \n, then to split each line into key:value — Barmar

I would do this by splitting into arrays:

const string = "Allergies: adas \n other: asdasdfgfdfbfb \n hola:hola";
console.log(Object.fromEntries(string.split('\n').map(inner => inner.split(':')).map(([s1, s2]) => [s1.trim(), s2.trim()])));
