php - How do I replace a path and filename string with unknown characters?

Solution:

You may try:

(<script type="text\/javascript".*)\?(.*?)(".*)

Explanation of the above regex:

(<script type="text\/javascript".*) - Represents first capturing group matching <script type=text/javascript literally along with everything that appears before a ?.

\?(.*?) - Represents second capturing group lazily matching ? and everything before the first ".

(".*) - Represents third matching group greedily matching everything after.

$1$3 - For the replacement part since you've to get rid of the second capturing group; just append first and third together.

You can find the demo of the above regex in

<?php
$re = '/(<script type="text\/javascript".*)\?(.*?)(".*)/m';
$str = '<script type="text/javascript" src="/path/file.js?version=c0af26a3543415d554bae1b8de55874b7736071d"></script>

<script src="//foobar.domain.com/?v2020.1.LTS">

<script type="text/javascript" src="/path2/file.css?version=sfsjfsbfsj00320vfvfv9494914411"></script>
';
$subst = '$1$3';

$result = preg_replace($re, $subst, $str);

echo $result;

Solution:

See preg_replace:

$HTML='<script src="/path/file.js?version=c0af26a3543415d554bae1b8de55874b7736071d"></script>';

$Result=preg_replace('/".*\/([\w\d]+)\.(css|js).*"/','/new/path/${1}.${2}',$HTML);

echo"$Result";

Solution:

This works:

$oldString = htmlspecialchars('<script type="text/javascript" src="/many/parents/path/file.js?version=c0af26a3543415d554bae1b8de55874b7736071d"></script>');

$newString = preg_replace_callback('#(src=&quot;)(/?)(\w*/)+([\w\d]*)(.js|.css)(\?version=)([\w\d]*)#', function($matches){return $matches[1].'/new/dir/'.$matches[4].$matches[5];}, $oldString);

echo $newString;
