JavaScript equivalent of Python's format() function?

Question

Python has this beautiful function to turn this:

bar1 = \'foobar\'
bar2 = \'jumped\'
bar3 = \'dog\'

foo = \'The lazy \' + bar3 + \' \' + bar2 \' over the \'

Usando split:

String.prototype.format = function (args) {
    var text = this
    for(var attr in args){
        text = text.split('${' + attr + '}').join(args[attr]);
    }
    return text
};

json = {'who':'Gendry', 'what':'will sit', 'where':'in the Iron Throne'}
text = 'GOT: ${who} ${what} ${where}';

console.log('context: ',json);
console.log('template: ',text);
console.log('formated: ',text.format(json));

Usando Regex:

String.prototype.format = function (args) {
    var text = this
    for(var attr in args){
        var rgx = new RegExp('${' + attr + '}','g');
        text = text.replace(rgx, args[attr]);
    }
    return text
};

json = {'who':'Gendry', 'what':'will sit', 'where':'in the Iron Throne'}
text = 'GOT: ${who} ${what} ${where}';

console.log('context: ',json);
console.log('template: ',text);
console.log('formated: ',text.format(json));
