Need to replace <p>Are you? [xxxrecipientFirstNamexxx] </p> with <p>Are you? {recipientFirstName} </p>

Need to replace

Are you? [xxxrecipientFirstNamexxx]

with

Are you? {recipientFirstName}

. I tried using Boundary Matchers .But result is not as expected . I tried with below code

"<p>Are you? [xxxrecipientFirstNamexxx] </p>".replaceAll("\\b[[xxxrecipientFirstNamexxx]]\\b", "{recipientFirstName}");

.Can any one help on this?

Use REGEX to find and replace:

Find: \[xxx(.*)xxx\]

Replace it with {$1}

In python:

import re

line = re.sub(
           r"\[xxx(.*)xxx\]", 
           "{$1}", 
           line
       )
