separating comma separated strings in to a new string

Is there a way to split a string which is comma separated in to a new string? Simular to substring() method and the split() method.

So I want to separated this by the commas in the string:

let str = "arg1,arg2,arg3"; //and so on

and then put each value into a new string like this:

let str1 = "arg1";
let str2 = "arg2";
let str3 = "arg3";

Is there a way to do that in JavaScript?

Try this 

const str = "arg1,arg2,arg3";

const [arg1,arg2,arg3] = str.split(',');

console.log(arg1,arg2,arg3);

You can make a dynamic object if this str is dynamic,

let str = "arg1,arg2,arg3";
let strArr = str.split(',');
let strObj = {};

strArr.forEach((item, index) => {
   strObj['str'+ index] = item;
});

for(let str in strObj) {
  console.log(`${str} : ${strObj[str]}`);
}

Split the string using .split and then use destructuring assignment which will unpack the values from array

let [str1, str2, str3] = "arg1,arg2,arg3".split(",");
console.log(str1)

One way to do this concisely is to use destructuring on the split string:

const str = "arg1,arg2,arg3";
const [str1, str2, str3] = str.split(',');
console.log(str1);
console.log(str2);
console.log(str3);

But it would usually be more appropriate to use an array instead
