str_ireplace

  • All replacements in Ruby are done using String#gsub. This method does both regular expression and string based replacements. To perform case insensitive replacements in Ruby, we need to use regular expressions with the case insensitive (i) modifier.

    PHP

    $result = str_ireplace('hello', 'Hi', 'Hello world');
var_export($result);
// => 'Hi world'

    Ruby

    p "Hello world".gsub(/hello/i, "Hi")
# => "Hi world"
