I have a string and I want to replace every space in this string with a + I tired this by using:
tw.Text = strings.Replace(tw.Text, " ", "+", 1)
But that didn't worked for me...any solutions?
For example the string could look like:
The answer of the universe is 42
from the Go documentation: func Replace
If n < 0, there is no limit on the number of replacements.
try
strings.Replace(tw.Text, " ", "+", -1)
Documentation on strings.Replace()
: http://golang.org/pkg/strings/#Replace
According to the documentation, the fourth integer parameter is the number of replacements. Your example would only replace the first space with a "+". You need to use a number less than 0 for it to not impose a limit:
tw.Text = strings.Replace(tw.Text, " ", "+", -1)
If you are using this in a query, the QueryEscape
method provided by net/url
is the best solution: https://golang.org/pkg/net/url/#QueryEscape
import "net/url"
tw.Text = url.QueryEscape(tw.Text)
