Replace SRC and HREF attributes using regex in PHPStorm

Question

i am new to laravel and i just got this html template i am converting to a blade template in my application. However i would like to replace the src and href attributes of all the links and images on the page with the laravel assets function. eg.

Change

<script type="text/javascript" src="js/jquery.js"></script>

to

<script type="text/javascript" src="{{ asset('js/jquery.js') }}"></script>

Unfortunately there are so many of these in my template that i was wondering if there was a way to just do this with regular expressions using the replace tool in my editor.

Answer 1

You can do it using capturing groups.

Go Edit->Find->Replace.. , check Regex

In the first row you should enter:

<script type="text/javascript" src="(.+)"></script>

In the second row:

<script type="text/javascript" src="{{ asset('$1') }}"></script>

With images you can do it similarly.
