Text Operation New Function: Text Search and Replacement with Words or Regular Expression

-

 

Now Stringland Tech has upgraded the Word Count module to support following functions:

  • Search one or multiple words in given text by providing one or multiple target words.
  • Search one or multiple words in given text by providing one regular expression.
  • Replace one or multiple words in give text by providing one replace word.
  • Replace one or multiple words in give text by providing one regular expression.

Thus, this module has been renamed as Text Search and Replacement. And as you can image, later there will be a text editor provided by StringLand Tech, and this module is one of this editor's main modules.


Here is the Text Search and Replacement Module page link.

Here are the screenshots:



Text Search

This function allows users to count words of text by providing one or multiple target words or one regular expression.

Here is the page link

Here is the sample screenshot using multiple target words to count words in text: 



Note that currently this feature has one limitation:

If a target word is the sub string of another target word, then its count may be inaccurate. We will try to fix this issue as soon as possible. ✊


Here is the sample screenshot using one regular expression to count words in text: 


In the future, if there is strong requirement to support multiple regular expressions, we will add this feature as well. ✋


Text Replacement

Since we are able to find target words in the text, then we can remove or replace them.

Here is the page link.

In this function, there are two inputs. Firs one is the source words/regular expression, which is used to find the target words. Second one is the replace word.  Actually you can put multiple words in both of the input. To delete the target words, just leave replace word input as empty.


Here is the sample screenshot of replacing words in text by providing replace word.

And delete words sample:

And delete words (app sub strings are all gone):

Using Next JS in Stringland Tech

-
Next JS - Server Side Generation Previously Stringland Tech used React JS, which caused an issue: Google could only index home page. That is because other pages are generated on the fly when browsers visit their links, which make it hard for search engine to add them into index. To do the SEO (search engine optimization) so that Stringland Tech is easier to find by everyone, while without making too much code changes, we rewrite the whole front end side using Next JS. Next JS support web pages server side rendering. It means that every pages have their own static html files and they can be easily collected by search engine and added to index. Another reason to choose Next JS is that it is based on React JS. Stringland tech front end code change scope can be reduced. Here is the Next JS wiki page .  And here is Next JS official pages .   How to Migrate from React JS Next JS official document has complete guideline . Actually the basic idea is simple: For routing and redirection, just fo

Adding Direct Entries for all the Lands

As we know, the homepage has card for each function module. Each module has a picture and description for that function, like Math, Text Editor, and so on.  When you click the card, you will be redirected to one of the sub functions of the module. However, that redirected sub function page is fixed, and it may not be what users' want. So now we add a Go To button in each card. When you click that button, a list of sub functions will be shown, and you can click any one of them to go to the corresponding sub function page. Here is the sample screenshot: Hope this UI improvement can improve your user experience. 👋
