I have a text file with a lot of numbers on new line and am wanting to generate the same line of code with the different values

Question

So basically I have a Map setup and it takes coordinates to place Blips on the map. I have a long list of coordinates that are on different lines which look like this - X, Y

-329, -1562
-357, -1544
-358, -1547
345, -1553
-355, -1552
485, -1274
463, -1305
577, -1930
575, -1928
461, -1973
103, -1808

I am wanting to make it so every X and Y value that is on a line is taken from the TXT file and generated into this text

var X = X VALUE HERE;
var Y = Y VALUE HERE;
L.marker([X, Y], { icon: ingredientIcon(1) }).addTo(Icons["Crafting/Items"]).bindPopup("Text");

var X = 2nd X VALUE HERE;
var Y = 2nd Y VALUE HERE;
L.marker([X, Y], { icon: ingredientIcon(1) }).addTo(Icons["Crafting/Items"]).bindPopup("Text");

I figured Python would be the best way to generate it but I have no clue. I'm just trying to make my life easier and have no clue where to start. I cant seem to figure it out and have done a bit of research. Please save me.

Try this:

output = ""

with open("file path to read from", "r") as file:
    for line in file.readlines():
        line = line.strip()
        x, y = line.split(", ")
        output += f"""\nvar X = {x};
var Y = {y};
L.marker([X, Y], \{ icon: ingredientIcon(1) }).addTo(Icons["Crafting/Items"]).bindPopup("Text");

var X = 2nd X VALUE HERE;
var Y = 2nd Y VALUE HERE;
L.marker([X, Y], \{ icon: ingredientIcon(1) }).addTo(Icons["Crafting/Items"]).bindPopup("Text");"""

with open("file path to write to", "w") as file:
    file.write(output)

I recommend you try this with a different file, because this can override your original file.
