<p>It can be used to search, split or replace text. All searching is done with
an implicit <code>.*?</code> at the beginning and end of an expression. To force an
expression to match the whole string (or a prefix or a suffix), you must
use an anchor like <code>^</code> or <code>$</code> (or <code>\A</code> and <code>\z</code>).</p>
<p>Like the <code>Regex</code> type in the parent module, matches with this regex return
byte offsets into the search text. <strong>Unlike</strong> the parent <code>Regex</code> type,
these byte offsets may not correspond to UTF-8 sequence boundaries since

<div class='docblock'><p>Replaces the leftmost-first match with the replacement provided. The
replacement can be a regular byte string (where <code>$N</code> and <code>$name</code> are
expanded to match capture groups) or a function that takes the matches&#39;
<code>Captures</code> and returns the replaced byte string.</p>
<p>If no match is found, then a copy of the byte string is returned
unchanged.</p>
<h1 id='examples-1' class='section-header'><a href='#examples-1'>Examples</a></h1>
<p>Note that this function is polymorphic with respect to the replacement.
In typical usage, this can just be a normal byte string:</p>
<pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">re</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">Regex</span>::<span class="ident">new</span>(<span class="string">&quot;[^01]+&quot;</span>).<span class="ident">unwrap</span>();

<p>But anything satisfying the <code>Replacer</code> trait will work. For example, a
closure of type <code>|&amp;Captures| -&gt; Vec&lt;u8&gt;</code> provides direct access to the
captures corresponding to a match. This allows one to access submatches
easily:</p>
<pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">re</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">Regex</span>::<span class="ident">new</span>(<span class="string">r&quot;([^,\s]+),\s+(\S+)&quot;</span>).<span class="ident">unwrap</span>();
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">result</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">re</span>.<span class="ident">replace</span>(<span class="string">b&quot;Springsteen, Bruce&quot;</span>, <span class="op">|</span><span class="ident">caps</span>: <span class="kw-2">&amp;</span><span class="ident">Captures</span><span class="op">|</span> {
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="kw-2">mut</span> <span class="ident">replacement</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">caps</span>[<span class="number">2</span>].<span class="ident">to_owned</span>();
<span class="ident">replacement</span>.<span class="ident">push</span>(<span class="string">b&#39; &#39;</span>);
<span class="ident">replacement</span>.<span class="ident">extend</span>(<span class="kw-2">&amp;</span><span class="ident">caps</span>[<span class="number">1</span>]);
<span class="ident">replacement</span>
});
<span class="macro">assert_eq</span><span class="macro">!</span>(<span class="ident">result</span>, <span class="string">b&quot;Bruce Springsteen&quot;</span>);</pre>
<p>But this is a bit cumbersome to use all the time. Instead, a simple
syntax is supported that expands <code>$name</code> into the corresponding capture
group. Here&#39;s the last example, but using this expansion technique
with named capture groups:</p>
<pre class="rust rust-example-rendered">
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">re</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">Regex</span>::<span class="ident">new</span>(<span class="string">r&quot;(?P&lt;last&gt;[^,\s]+),\s+(?P&lt;first&gt;\S+)&quot;</span>).<span class="ident">unwrap</span>();
<span class="kw">let</span> <span class="ident">result</span> <span class="op">=</span> <span class="ident">re</span>.<span class="ident">replace</span>(<span class="string">b&quot;Springsteen, Bruce&quot;</span>, <span class="kw-2">&amp;</span><span class="string">b&quot;$first $last&quot;</span>[..]);
<span class="macro">assert_eq</span><span class="macro">!</span>(<span class="ident">result</span>, <span class="string">b&quot;Bruce Springsteen&quot;</span>);</pre>
<p>Note that using <code>$2</code> instead of <code>$first</code> or <code>$1</code> instead of <code>$last</code>
would produce the same result. To write a literal <code>$</code> use <code>$$</code>.</p>
<p>If <code>$name</code> isn&#39;t a valid capture group (whether the name doesn&#39;t exist
or isn&#39;t a valid index), then it is replaced with the empty string.</p>
<p>The longest possible name is used. e.g., <code>$1a</code> looks up the capture
group named <code>1a</code> and not the capture group at index <code>1</code>. To exert more
precise control over the name, use braces, e.g., <code>${1}a</code>.</p>
<p>Finally, sometimes you just want to replace a literal string with no
submatch expansion. This can be done by wrapping a byte string with
<code>NoExpand</code>:</p>

Prefix searches with a type followed by a colon (e.g.

Accepted types are: <code>fn</code>, <code>mod</code>,
<code>struct</code>, <code>enum</code>,
<code>trait</code>, <code>type</code>, <code>macro</code>,
and <code>const</code>.

Search functions by type signature (e.g.
