Wrap Each Line in Quotes - Free Online Tool

Q: Can I wrap lines in single quotes or brackets instead of double quotes?

Yes. The Wrap with menu offers double quotes, single quotes, backticks, parentheses, square brackets, and braces. Pick whichever your code or format needs, and every line is wrapped with that pair.

Q: Can I keep each value on its own line?

That is the default. Set the output to One per line and each wrapped value sits on its own row, which is ideal for pasting into a multi-line array. Switch the output to comma-separated when you would rather have a single inline list.

Q: How do I use a custom wrapper?

Choose Custom from the menu and two small fields appear for the text to place before and after each line. You could, for example, put an opening HTML tag before and a closing tag after to build markup, or any other opening and closing snippet.

Q: Will it skip blank lines?

Yes, when Remove empty lines is on, which is the default, so you do not end up with empty quoted entries. Trim each line also strips surrounding spaces before wrapping, so the quotes sit tight against your text.

About the Wrap Each Line in Quotes Tool

What does this tool do?

It puts a wrapper around every line of a list. Pick double quotes, single quotes, backticks, parentheses, brackets, or braces, and each line comes back wrapped on both sides. Paste a column of values and get "apple", "banana", "cherry" back instantly — no button, no fuss. If you need something the presets don't cover, the Custom option lets you set your own opening and closing text.

By default each wrapped value stays on its own line, which is exactly what you want when you're building a block to paste into code. When you'd rather have a single inline list, switch the output to comma-separated and you've got a ready-made array or SQL value. Trimming and empty-line removal keep the result clean, and it all runs in your browser so nothing you paste leaves your device.

How to Use This Tool

Paste your lines. Drop your list into the left box, drag in a .txt file, or hit Sample to see it work.
Choose a wrapper. Double quotes are the default; switch to single quotes, backticks, brackets, braces, or set a custom pair.
Pick the output. Keep one item per line, or join them with a comma or other separator for an inline list.
Tidy up. Leave Trim each line and Remove empty lines on so you don't wrap stray spaces or blank rows.
Take the result. The wrapped list updates live on the right — copy it or download it as a text file.

Common Use Cases

Quoting a list is a routine step whenever text has to become code:

Building a code array: Wrap each value in quotes to drop a column straight into a JavaScript, Python, or PHP array.
Writing a SQL query: Quote a column of IDs or names for a WHERE col IN (...) clause.
Escaping CSV values: Surround each field with double quotes so commas inside them don't break the format.
Formatting config lists: Wrap values in brackets or braces for JSON, TOML, or other config files.
Custom templating: Use the custom wrapper to add any opening and closing snippet around each line.

Want to add different text to the start and end of each line instead? Use our Add Prefix/Suffix to Each Line tool, or join a column straight into one line with the Column to Comma Separated List tool.
