Examples
In this example, a template string is defined with three tokens, two of which have defaults. The stringBind BIF is then ran and returns a string with values parsed:
templateString = "
This is a string with a ${name:Nameless} and ${age:0}. Here is a
token with no default, ${food}.
";
parsed = stringBind(templateString, {
name:'Ray',
food:'sushi'
});
println(parsed);
// Returns "This is a string with a Ray and 0. Here is a token with no default, sushi."Related
