Class Method Details

.GlobalReplace(str, pattern, rewrite) ⇒ String

Return a copy of str with pattern replaced by rewrite using GlobalReplace.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

Examples:

re2 = RE2::Regexp.new("oo?")
RE2.GlobalReplace("whoops-doops", re2, "e") #=> "wheps-deps"
RE2.GlobalReplace("hello there", "e", "i")  #=> "hillo thiri"

Parameters:

  • str (String) —

    the string to modify

  • pattern (String, RE2::Regexp) —

    a regexp matching text to be replaced

  • rewrite (String) —

    the string to replace with

Returns:

  • (String) —

    the resulting string

Raises:

  • (TypeError) —

    if the given rewrite or pattern (if not provided as a Regexp) cannot be coerced to Strings

  }
}

.QuoteMeta(unquoted) ⇒ String

Returns a version of str with all potentially meaningful regexp characters escaped using QuoteMeta. The returned string, used as a regular expression, will exactly match the original string.

Examples:

RE2::Regexp.escape("1.5-2.0?") #=> "1\.5\-2\.0\?"

Parameters:

  • unquoted (String) —

    the unquoted string

Returns:

  • (String) —

    the escaped string

Raises:

  • (TypeError) —

    if the given unquoted string cannot be coerced to a String

  return rb_str_new(quoted_string.data(), quoted_string.size());
}

.Replace(str, pattern, rewrite) ⇒ String

Returns a copy of str with the first occurrence pattern replaced with rewrite using Replace.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

Examples:

RE2.Replace("hello there", "hello", "howdy") #=> "howdy there"
re2 = RE2::Regexp.new("hel+o")
RE2.Replace("hello there", re2, "yo")        #=> "yo there"

Parameters:

  • str (String) —

    the string to modify

  • pattern (String, RE2::Regexp) —

    a regexp matching text to be replaced

  • rewrite (String) —

    the string to replace with

Returns:

  • (String) —

    the resulting string

Raises:

  • (TypeError) —

    if the given rewrite or pattern (if not provided as a Regexp) cannot be coerced to Strings
