TextReplace

(Redirected from StringReplace)


TextReplace(text, pattern, subst, all, caseInsensitive, re)

Replaces the occurrence of «pattern» in «text» by «subst».

If «all» is omitted or False, replaces only the first occurrence. If «all» is True, replaces every occurrence of «pattern».

If «caseInsensitive» is True, matches to «pattern» in a case-insensitive fashion.

When «re» is True, then «pattern» is treated as a regular expression. You can then substitute matching sub-patterns into the result using the following escape sequences in «subst»:

\0 = The matched text
\1, \2, ..., \9 = Text matching the numbered sub-patterns
<name> = text matching a named sub-pattern.

TextReplace("One for one and one for all", "one", "two", all: True, caseInsensitive: True) →

TextReplace("The date is 01/26/2016", "(\d?\d)[/-](\d?\d)[/-](\d\d\d\d)", "\2-\1-\3",re:true,all:true) →
"The date is 26-01-2016"
TextReplace("The date is 01/26/2016", "(?<M>\d?\d)[/-](?<D>\d?\d)[/-](?<Y>\d\d\d\d)", "<D>-<M>-<Y>", re: true, all: true) →
"The date is 26-01-2016"
TextReplace("The date is 01/26/2016", ".*?(?<M>\d?\d)[/-](?<D>\d?\d)[/-](?<Y>\d\d\d\d).*", "<D>-<M>-<Y>", re: true, all: true) →
