Working with text - Jet\Data_Text

There are several methods for working with text that are used by the Jet platform, but of course can be useful in the application space as well.

Method Overview

Method	Meaning of
public static removeAccents( string $text ) : string	Removes all diacritics from the text. This means that it converts characters like čšťď to cstd.
public static replaceData( string $text, array $data ) : string	Replaces the keys in the text with values from the array. Let's see an example:`$text = 'Your name is %user_name% and your role is %user_role%.'; $data = [ 'user_name' => 'Jára Cimrman', 'user_role' => 'Administrator' ]; $result = Data_Text::replaceData($text, $data); //value of $result: 'Your name is Jára Cimrman and your role is Administrator'` This method is used, for example, by the translator
public static htmlSpecialChars( string $input, bool $encode_quotes=false ) : string	It takes care of encoding potentially dangerous data before displaying it in HTML.
