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

下面是一个支持基本正则表达式替换的版本。主要的限制是表达式不能包含子组,并且可能存在一些边缘情况:

基于@bgusach和其他的代码

import re

class StringReplacer:

    def __init__(self, replacements, ignore_case=False):
        patterns = sorted(replacements, key=len, reverse=True)
        self.replacements = [replacements[k] for k in patterns]
        re_mode = re.IGNORECASE if ignore_case else 0
        self.pattern = re.compile('|'.join(("({})".format(p) for p in patterns)), re_mode)
        def tr(matcher):
            index = next((index for index,value in enumerate(matcher.groups()) if value), None)
            return self.replacements[index]
        self.tr = tr

    def __call__(self, string):
        return self.pattern.sub(self.tr, string)

测试

table = {
    "aaa"    : "[This is three a]",
    "b+"     : "[This is one or more b]",
    r"<\w+>" : "[This is a tag]"
}

replacer = StringReplacer(table, True)

sample1 = "whatever bb, aaa, <star> BBB <end>"

print(replacer(sample1))

# output: 
# whatever [This is one or more b], [This is three a], [This is a tag] [This is one or more b] [This is a tag]

诀窍是通过位置来识别匹配的组。它不是超级高效(O(n)),但它是有效的。

index = next((index for index,value in enumerate(matcher.groups()) if value), None)

替换是一次完成的。

我不知道速度如何,但这是我日常的快速解决方法:

reduce(lambda a, b: a.replace(*b)
    , [('o','W'), ('t','X')] #iterable of pairs: (oldval, newval)
    , 'tomato' #The string from which to replace values
    )

... 但我喜欢上面的#1正则表达式答案。注意:如果一个新值是另一个值的子字符串,那么该操作是不可交换的。

我把这句话建立在fj的精彩回答上:

import re

def multiple_replacer(*key_values):
    replace_dict = dict(key_values)
    replacement_function = lambda match: replace_dict[match.group(0)]
    pattern = re.compile("|".join([re.escape(k) for k, v in key_values]), re.M)
    return lambda string: pattern.sub(replacement_function, string)

def multiple_replace(string, *key_values):
    return multiple_replacer(*key_values)(string)

一针用法:

>>> replacements = (u"café", u"tea"), (u"tea", u"café"), (u"like", u"love")
>>> print multiple_replace(u"Do you like café? No, I prefer tea.", *replacements)
Do you love tea? No, I prefer café.

注意,由于替换只在一次传递中完成,“café”会变成“tea”,但不会变回“café”。

如果你需要做相同的替换多次,你可以很容易地创建一个替换函数:

>>> my_escaper = multiple_replacer(('"','\\"'), ('\t', '\\t'))
>>> many_many_strings = (u'This text will be escaped by "my_escaper"',
                       u'Does this work?\tYes it does',
                       u'And can we span\nmultiple lines?\t"Yes\twe\tcan!"')
>>> for line in many_many_strings:
...     print my_escaper(line)
... 
This text will be escaped by \"my_escaper\"
Does this work?\tYes it does
And can we span
multiple lines?\t\"Yes\twe\tcan!\"

改进:

将代码转换为函数 增加了多线支持 修正了逃跑的错误 容易创建一个函数,用于特定的多个替换

享受吧!: -)

你真的不应该这样做,但我觉得这太酷了:

>>> replacements = {'cond1':'text1', 'cond2':'text2'}
>>> cmd = 'answer = s'
>>> for k,v in replacements.iteritems():
>>>     cmd += ".replace(%s, %s)" %(k,v)
>>> exec(cmd)

现在,答案是所有替换的结果

再说一次,这是非常俗气的,不是你应该经常使用的东西。但我很高兴知道如果你需要的话,你可以这样做。

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。

在我的情况下,我需要一个简单的唯一键替换名称,所以我想到了这个:

a = 'This is a test string.'
b = {'i': 'I', 's': 'S'}
for x,y in b.items():
    a = a.replace(x, y)
>>> a
'ThIS IS a teSt StrIng.'
