StringSearchExtensions extension

Convenience extensions for using StringSearch on String instances.

Note: We intentionally avoid names like indexOf / contains to prevent confusion with built-in String methods.

Methods

containsPattern(String pattern, {SearchAlgorithm algorithm = SearchAlgorithm.boyerMoore, int start = 0}) → bool

Available on String, provided by the StringSearchExtensions extension

Returns true if pattern occurs in this string using the chosen algorithm.

findAllMatches(String pattern, {SearchAlgorithm algorithm = SearchAlgorithm.boyerMoore}) → List<SearchMatch>

Available on String, provided by the StringSearchExtensions extension

Returns all matches (including overlapping matches).

findAllMatchIndices(String pattern, {SearchAlgorithm algorithm = SearchAlgorithm.boyerMoore}) → List<int>

Available on String, provided by the StringSearchExtensions extension

Returns all match indices (including overlapping matches).

indexOfPattern(String pattern, {SearchAlgorithm algorithm = SearchAlgorithm.boyerMoore, int start = 0}) → int

Available on String, provided by the StringSearchExtensions extension

Finds the first index of pattern in this string using the chosen algorithm.
