Replace multiple instances of text surrounded by specific characters in JavaScript?

Let’s say the following is our string. Some text is surrounded by special character hash(#) −

var values = "My Name is #yourName# and I got #marks# in JavaScript subject";

We need to replace the special character with valid values. For this, use replace() along with shift().

Example

Following is the code −

var values = "My Name is #yourName# and I got #marks# in JavaScript subject";
const originalValue = ["David Miller", 97];
var result = values.replace(/#([^#]+)#/g, _ => originalValue.shift());
console.log(result);

To run the above program, you need to use the following command −

node fileName.js.

Here, my file name is demo298.js.

Output

This will produce the following output on console −

PS C:\Users\Amit\javascript-code> node demo298.js
My Name is David Miller and I got 97 in JavaScript subject
