# replacer

[![testing](https://github.com/unfor19/replacer/workflows/testing/badge.svg)](<(https://github.com/unfor19/replacer/actions?query=workflow%3Atesting)>)

Find and replace multiline strings

## Requirements

All you need is [Docker](https://docs.docker.com/get-docker/)

## Getting Started

1. Insert a start tag and stop tag to a text file, for example

```html

This is the text block that will be replaced

Let's make it work!

```

2. Prepare a file with the text that you want to inject

```bash
$ echo -e '

This is the incoming text block
\n
It worked!
' > incoming.txt
```

3. Run the application

```bash
$ docker run --rm -v ${PWD}/:/app unfor19/replacer -sf /app/incoming.txt -df /app/README.md
```

4. That's it, your text has been replaced! To see more options

```bash
$ docker run --rm -v ${PWD}/:/app unfor19/replacer --help

Usage: bash main.sh -sf incoming.txt -df README.md

--dst_file_path | -df [REQUIRED] Full path to destination file
--src_file_path | -sf [replacer_null] Full path to source file that will be injected
--src_text | -st [replacer_null] Text of the source to inject
--start_value | -sv [] From where to start
--end_value | -ev [] Where to stop
--create_backup | -cb [true] Create a backup file
--backup_file_path | -bp [./] Full path to backup file

```
