Angular filter to replace all underscores to spaces


I need a filter to replace all the underscores to spaces in a string


Solution

  • string.replace not only accepts string as first argument but also it accepts regex as first argument. So put _ within regex delimiters / and aslo add g modifier along with that. g called global modifier which will do the replacement globally.

    App.filter('underscoreless', function () {
      return function (input) {
          return input.replace(/_/g, ' ');
      };
    });
