replacement / substition with Haskell regex libraries

Question

Is there a high-level API for doing search-and-replace with regexes in Haskell? In particular, I\'m looking at the Text.Regex.TDFA or Text.Regex.Posix

Answer 1

You can use replaceAll from the Data.Text.ICU.Replace module.

Prelude> :set -XOverloadedStrings
Prelude> import Data.Text.ICU.Replace
Prelude Data.Text.ICU.Replace> replaceAll "cat" "dog" "Bailey is a cat, and Max is a cat too."
"Bailey is a dog, and Max is a dog too."
