How to insert double quotes into String with interpolation in scala

Question

Having trouble escaping all the quotes in my function

(basic usage of it -> if i find a string do nothing, if its not a string add \" in the begin and end)

Answer 1

Another solution (also mentioned in the Scala tracker) is to use

case _ => s"${'"'}$value${'"'}"

Still ugly, but sometimes perhaps may be preferred over triple quotes.

It seems an escape sequence $" was suggested as a part of SIP-24 for 2.12:

case _ => s"$"$value$""

This SIP was never accepted, as it contained other more controversial suggestions. Currently there is an effort to get escape sequence $" implemented in 2.13 as Pre SIP/mini SIP $” escapes in interpolations.
