string-replace - replace substrings

Synopsis
|
|
--------
|
|
|
|
.. BEGIN SYNOPSIS
|
|
|
|
``string`` replace [**-a** | **--all**] [**-f** | **--filter**] [**-i** | **--ignore-case**]
|
|
\ \ [**-r** | **--regex**] [**-q** | **--quiet**] *PATTERN* *REPLACE* [*STRING*...]
|
|
|

|
Description
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
.. BEGIN DESCRIPTION
|
|
|
|
``string replace`` is similar to ``string match`` but replaces non-overlapping matching substrings with a replacement string and prints the result. By default, PATTERN is treated as a literal substring to be matched.
|
|
|
|
If ``-r`` or ``--regex`` is given, PATTERN is interpreted as a Perl-compatible regular expression, and REPLACEMENT can contain C-style escape sequences like ``\t`` as well as references to capturing groups by number or name as ``$n`` or ``${n}``.
|
|
|
|
If you specify the ``-f`` or ``--filter`` flag then each input string is printed only if a replacement was done. This is useful where you would otherwise use this idiom: ``a_cmd | string match pattern | string replace pattern new_pattern``. You can instead just write ``a_cmd | string replace --filter pattern new_pattern``.
|
|
|
|
Exit status: 0 if at least one replacement was performed, or 1 otherwise.
