Field Detail

• public static final java.lang.String VALUE_SEPARATOR

  A generic separator used in some places to concatenate values. Never use this for parsing of these concatenated strings. This value is not a reserved value and can actually exist in the key strings themselves. This makes parsing difficult. Value: / (slash).

Constructor Detail

• TextUtils()

Method Detail

• static java.lang.StringBuilder addFieldForDisplay(java.lang.StringBuilder sb, java.lang.String label, java.lang.String value, java.util.Map options)

  Adds a single field to the output buffer, formatted for display. Enforces the field limit.

  Options

  • highlight - If true, then highlight the field names with HTML bold. (default: false)
  • maxLength - The max length of the string. If adding a field will expand beyond this length, then the field will not be added, but a '...' will be added. (default: 100)
  • newLine - If true, then an HTML <br> is added between each name/value pair (default: false).

  Parameters:

  sb - The output buffer.

  label - The field label.

  value - The value for the field. If null or empty, then does nothing.

  options - The options (see above).

  @param

• @java.lang.SuppressWarnings(value: [GStringExpressionWithinString, ParameterReassignment]) static java.lang.String evaluateGString(java.lang.String gString, java.util.Map parameters)

  Evaluates a given GString with the given parameters. This is needed because the normal GStrings are limited to the scope of the current method/class. This would force the user to use strings like "${parameters.day}" instead of the simpler "$day".

  This method uses simple replacement logic for simple expressions, but falls back to the slower GStringTemplateEngine approach if the more complex forms are used such as "${object.method()}".

  Note: The special parameter all is added to the possible parameters for convenience. It is only added if the parameters does not contain all already.

  Note: This includes a fix for Spring messages.properties handling of escaped brackets (& #123;). If no arguments are passed to the message source, then it does not un-escape the {. This method will replace any '& #123;' with {.

  Parameters:

  gString - The Groovy String with possible replaceable parameters.

  parameters - The parameters to replace this with.

  Returns:

  The replaced string.

• static java.lang.String findLine(java.lang.String page, java.lang.String text)

  Utility method to find the line in the output with the given text.

  Parameters:

  page - The total output to the page.

  text - The text to search for. Finds first occurrence.

  Returns:

  The whole line. Null if not found.

• protected static java.lang.String fixGStringArgument(java.lang.Object o)

• static java.util.Map<java.lang.String, java.lang.String> parseNameValuePairs(java.lang.String s)

  Parses the name/value pairs in a string into a Map.

  Parameters:
