QuoteModifier.md

QuoteModifier

The |quote modifier wraps string values with a configurable quote character (default: backtick `).

Behavior

• Strings are wrapped with the quote character and internal occurrences are escaped
• Non-string values delegate to the next modifier

Usage

use Respect\StringFormatter\PlaceholderFormatter;

$formatter = new PlaceholderFormatter([
    'name' => 'John',
    'text' => 'Say `hello`',
    'count' => 42,
]);

echo $formatter->format('User: {{name|quote}}');
// Output: User: `John`

echo $formatter->format('{{text|quote}}');
// Output: `Say \`hello\``

echo $formatter->format('{{count|quote}}');
// Output: 42 (delegated to next modifier)

Custom Quote Character

use Respect\StringFormatter\PlaceholderFormatter;
use Respect\StringFormatter\Modifiers\QuoteModifier;
use Respect\StringFormatter\Modifiers\StringifyModifier;

$formatter = new PlaceholderFormatter(
    ['name' => 'John'],
    new QuoteModifier(new StringifyModifier(), "'"),
);

echo $formatter->format('{{name|quote}}');
// Output: 'John'
