In PHP, I have string like this:
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, {consectetur} adipiscing elit. Sed cursus ante dapibus {diam}.";
and I want to find and replace words inside {} with "BINGO".
Results:
"Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, BINGO adipiscing elit. Sed cursus ante dapibus BINGO."
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Try this:
<?php
$vars = [
'consectetur' => 'BINGO',
'diam' => 'BINGO'
];
$str = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, {consectetur} adipiscing elit. Integer nec odio. Praesent libero. Sed cursus ante dapibus {diam}. Sed nisi. Nulla quis sem at nibh elementum imperdiet. Duis sagittis ipsum.";
$parsed = preg_replace_callback("/\{([\w\_]{1,})\}/", function ($match) use ($vars) {
return array_key_exists($match[1], $vars) ? $vars[$match[1]] : '';
}, $str);
echo $parsed;
Or as you seem to want, which is kind of useless.
echo preg_replace("/\{(.*?)\}/", 'BINGO', $str);
You can use preg_replace
<?php
$string = 'your String';
$pattern = '/\{(.*?)\}/';
$replacement = 'BINGO';
echo preg_replace($pattern, $replacement, $string);
?>
You can use preg_match() with str_replace -
$str = "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, {consectetur} adipiscing elit. Integer nec odio. Praesent libero. Sed cursus ante dapibus {diam}. Sed nisi. Nulla quis sem at nibh elementum imperdiet. Duis sagittis ipsum.";
preg_match('{(.*)}', $str , $matches);
print_r($matches);
output - Array ( [0] => {hello:{}{}yooohooo} [1] => {hello:{}{}yooohooo} )
Use this output inside str_replace() function of php
echo str_replace($matches[0],"Your Replacing string",$str);
OR
You can use preg_replace() function
$replace_str = preg_replace('{(.*)}', "Your Replacing string", $str);
echo $replace_str;
I hope this will help you!
