echo $result; // Hello, Anna! Your position is programmer.

Custom regexp usage

use Smoren\StringFormatter\StringFormatter;

$input = 'Hello, %name%! Your position is %position%.';
$params = ['name' => 'Anna', 'position' => 'programmer'];
$result = StringFormatter::format($input, $params, false, '/%([a-z]+)%/');
echo $result; // Hello, Anna! Your position is programmer.

Errors handling

use Smoren\StringFormatter\StringFormatter;
use Smoren\StringFormatter\StringFormatterException;

// Explicit mode
$input = 'Hello, {name}! Your position is {position}.';
$params = ['name' => 'Anna'];
try {
    StringFormatter::format($input, $params);
} catch(StringFormatterException $e) {
    print_r($e->getData()); // ['position']
}

// Silent mode
$input = 'Hello, {name}! Your position is {position}.';
$params = ['name' => 'Anna'];
$result = StringFormatter::format($input, $params, true);
echo $result; // Hello, Anna! Your position is {position}.

// Another variant of silent mode
$input = 'Hello, {name}! Your position is {position}.';
$params = ['name' => 'Anna'];
$result = StringFormatter::formatSilent($input, $params);
echo $result; // Hello, Anna! Your position is {position}.
