I want to put some data with colons separating them, but want to ensure the colon lines up horizontally on each line. Only way is to padd it with spaces, except multiple adjacent spaces get collapsed into 1 space. How can I force a space? In html it is possible using a html entity   for non breaking space, but wondering how do do it in discord.js? Using \u200B didn't work either.

I have like

.addFields(
  { name : 'Stats' , value : 'A : test\r\nBBBB : test2'}
)

This will turn into

Stats
A : test
BBBB : test2

but I want it more like

Stats
A    : test
BBBB : test2

Use code blocks in your discord message. The text is displayed in monospaced font and can be arranged by using spaces and linefeeds. Complete info: https://gist.github./matthewzring/9f7bbfd102003963f9be7dbcf7d40e51#syntax-highlighting

While this may not be an exact solution, it may help some so I will add this. Discord filters some characters from messages that they believe are problematic. Assuming discord.js doesn't filter out additional characters there are some unicode spaces that appear to work. In my case I wanted to add a blank inline field. I was able to add a zero width space.

Example

const msg = JSON.stringify({
  username: "Example",
  content: "Example Content",
  embeds: [
    {
      title: "Title",
      description: "Test",
      color: 16758413,
      fields: [
        {
          name: "Header 1",
          value: "Some Data",
          inline: true,
        },
        {
          name: `​`,
          value: `​`,
          inline: true,
        },
        {
          name: "Header 3",
          value: "Some More Data",
          inline: true,
        },
      ],
    },
  ],
});

While you cannot see it, there is a zero width space in index 1 of the fields array between the backticks. You might be able to play with other types of unicode spaces to see if you can bypass that filter. On Mac ctrl+cmd - space will open the character viewer. You can then search for space to see various unicode spaces.

You simply need to embrace your string with magic quote (`) like:

addFields([{
  name: "Stats",
  value: "`A    : test\nBBBB : test2`"
}, {
  name: "Stats",
  value: `\`A    : ${"test"}\nBBBB : test2\``
}]);

Both are identic, the second one allow you to use string templating.

use "\ " (backslash, then space) and that will force the additional spaces to appear. Do that for as many spaces as you need, as often as you need them.
