我想使用.replace函数替换多个字符串。

我目前有

string.replace("condition1", "")

但想要一些像

string.replace("condition1", "").replace("condition2", "text")

尽管这样的语法感觉不太好

正确的做法是什么?有点像在grep/regex中,你可以用\1和\2来替换某些搜索字符串的字段


当前回答

这只是F.J和mini夸克的一个更简洁的概述,bgusach的伟大回答和最后但决定性的改进。所有你需要实现多个同步字符串替换是以下函数:

def multiple_replace(string, rep_dict):
    pattern = re.compile("|".join([re.escape(k) for k in sorted(rep_dict,key=len,reverse=True)]), flags=re.DOTALL)
    return pattern.sub(lambda x: rep_dict[x.group(0)], string)

用法:

>>>multiple_replace("Do you like cafe? No, I prefer tea.", {'cafe':'tea', 'tea':'cafe', 'like':'prefer'})
'Do you prefer tea? No, I prefer cafe.'

如果您愿意,您可以从这个更简单的函数开始创建自己的专用替换函数。

这是我的0.02美元。它基于Andrew Clark的答案,只是更清楚一点,它还涵盖了当一个字符串被替换为另一个字符串的子字符串时的情况(更长的字符串胜出)

def multireplace(string, replacements):
    """
    Given a string and a replacement map, it returns the replaced string.

    :param str string: string to execute replacements on
    :param dict replacements: replacement dictionary {value to find: value to replace}
    :rtype: str

    """
    # Place longer ones first to keep shorter substrings from matching
    # where the longer ones should take place
    # For instance given the replacements {'ab': 'AB', 'abc': 'ABC'} against 
    # the string 'hey abc', it should produce 'hey ABC' and not 'hey ABc'
    substrs = sorted(replacements, key=len, reverse=True)

    # Create a big OR regex that matches any of the substrings to replace
    regexp = re.compile('|'.join(map(re.escape, substrs)))

    # For each match, look up the new string in the replacements
    return regexp.sub(lambda match: replacements[match.group(0)], string)

这就是这个要点,如果你有任何建议,请随意修改。

我在学校作业中也做过类似的练习。这就是我的解

dictionary = {1: ['hate', 'love'],
              2: ['salad', 'burger'],
              3: ['vegetables', 'pizza']}

def normalize(text):
    for i in dictionary:
        text = text.replace(dictionary[i][0], dictionary[i][1])
    return text

自己查看测试字符串上的结果

string_to_change = 'I hate salad and vegetables'
print(normalize(string_to_change))

这里有一个使用reduce的第一个解决方案的变体,如果你喜欢功能性的。:)

repls = {'hello' : 'goodbye', 'world' : 'earth'}
s = 'hello, world'
reduce(lambda a, kv: a.replace(*kv), repls.iteritems(), s)

马蒂诺的版本更好:

repls = ('hello', 'goodbye'), ('world', 'earth')
s = 'hello, world'
reduce(lambda a, kv: a.replace(*kv), repls, s)

为什么没有这样的解决方案呢?

s = "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog"
for r in (("brown", "red"), ("lazy", "quick")):
    s = s.replace(*r)

#output will be:  The quick red fox jumps over the quick dog

注意:测试你的案例,见注释。

这里有一个例子,它在长弦上更有效,有许多小的替换。

source = "Here is foo, it does moo!"

replacements = {
    'is': 'was', # replace 'is' with 'was'
    'does': 'did',
    '!': '?'
}

def replace(source, replacements):
    finder = re.compile("|".join(re.escape(k) for k in replacements.keys())) # matches every string we want replaced
    result = []
    pos = 0
    while True:
        match = finder.search(source, pos)
        if match:
            # cut off the part up until match
            result.append(source[pos : match.start()])
            # cut off the matched part and replace it in place
            result.append(replacements[source[match.start() : match.end()]])
            pos = match.end()
        else:
            # the rest after the last match
            result.append(source[pos:])
            break
    return "".join(result)

print replace(source, replacements)

关键是要避免长字符串的多次连接。我们将源字符串切成片段,在我们形成列表时替换一些片段,然后将整个字符串连接回字符串。
