If you're looking to show only the first digit and last four digits of a credit card number (4xxxxxxxxxxxx2331) use something like this:
preg_replace_callback('/((.)(.*))?(.{4})/', create_function('$x', 'return $x[2].str_repeat("x", strlen($x[3])).$x[4];'), '$CCNUMBER')
preg_replace_callback
(PHP 4 >= 4.0.5, PHP 5)
preg_replace_callback — Executa uma busca usando expressão regular e modifica usando um callback
Descrição
O comportamento desta função é quase idêntico ao da preg_replace(), exceto pelo fato que ao invés do parâmetro replacement , você deve especificar um callback .
Parâmetros
- pattern
-
A padrão usado para busca. Pode ser tanto uma string como um array de strings.
- callback
-
Um callback que será chamado e passado um array dos elementos combinados na string subject . O callback deve retornar a string substituta.
Você normalmente precisará da função callback para uma preg_replace_callback() somente para isso. Neste caso você pode usar create_function() para declarar uma função anônima como callback dentro da chamada da preg_replace_callback(). Desta forma você tem todas as informações para a chamada no mesmo lugar e não cria desordem com o nome da função do callback não usado em outro lugar.
Exemplo #1 preg_replace_callback() e create_function()
<?php
/* a unix-style command line filter to convert uppercase
* letters at the beginning of paragraphs to lowercase */
$fp = fopen("php://stdin", "r") or die("can't read stdin");
while (!feof($fp)) {
$line = fgets($fp);
$line = preg_replace_callback(
'|<p>\s*\w|',
create_function(
// single quotes are essential here,
// or alternative escape all $ as \$
'$matches',
'return strtolower($matches[0]);'
),
$line
);
echo $line;
}
fclose($fp);
?> - subject
-
A string ou array com strings para procurar e modificar.
- limit
-
O máximo de possíveis modificações para cada padrão em cada string subject . O padrão é -1 (sem limite).
- count
-
Se especificado, esta variável irá ser preenchida com o número de substituições feitas.
Valor Retornado
preg_replace_callback() retorna um array se o parâmetro subject for um array, ou uma string caso contrário.
Se ocorrer combinação, a nova string será retornada, caso contrário subject será retornada inalterável.
Histórico
| Versão | Descrição |
|---|---|
| 5.1.0 | O parâmetro count foi adicionado |
Exemplos
Exemplo #2 Exemplo da preg_replace_callback()
<?php
// this text was used in 2002
// we want to get this up to date for 2003
$text = "April fools day is 04/01/2002\n";
$text.= "Last christmas was 12/24/2001\n";
// the callback function
function next_year($matches)
{
// as usual: $matches[0] is the complete match
// $matches[1] the match for the first subpattern
// enclosed in '(...)' and so on
return $matches[1].($matches[2]+1);
}
echo preg_replace_callback(
"|(\d{2}/\d{2}/)(\d{4})|",
"next_year",
$text);
?>
O exemplo acima irá imprimir:
April fools day is 04/01/2003 Last christmas was 12/24/2002
Exemplo #3 preg_replace_callback() usando estrutura recursiva para manipular BB code aninhado
<?php
$input = "plain [indent] deep [indent] deeper [/indent] deep [/indent] plain";
function parseTagsRecursive($input)
{
$regex = '#\[indent]((?:[^[]|\[(?!/?indent])|(?R))+)\[/indent]#';
if (is_array($input)) {
$input = '<div style="margin-left: 10px">'.$input[1].'</div>';
}
return preg_replace_callback($regex, 'parseTagsRecursive', $input);
}
$output = parseTagsRecursive($input);
echo $output;
?>

When you use preg_replace_callback in a class and have the callback function as a private method of that class, you need to set the callback function name like className::CallBack.
self::CallBack does not work and returns an error:
"Cannot call method self::CallBack() or method does not exist"!
<?php
class myClass{
public function parsetext($text){
// parses text and sets literals A - C to lower case
// this works
return preg_replace_callback('|([a-c])|i', 'myClass::preg_tolower', $text);
}
public function parsefail($text){
// parses text and sets literals A - C to lower case
// this fails
return preg_replace_callback('|([a-c])|i', 'self::preg_tolower', $text);
}
private static function preg_tolower($matches){
return strtolower($matches[1]);
}
}
$parser = new myClass;
echo $parser->parsetext('ABCDEFGH');
// echoes abcDEFGH
echo $parser->parsefail('ABCDEFGH');
// throws the error
?>

A simple function to replace a list of complete words or terms in a string (for PHP 5.3 or above because of the closure):
<?php
function replace_words($list, $line, $callback) {
return preg_replace_callback(
'/(^|[^\\w\\-])(' . implode('|', array_map('preg_quote', $list)) . ')($|[^\\w\\-])/mi',
function($v) use ($callback) { return $v[1] . $callback($v[2]) . $v[3]; },
$line
);
}
?>
Example of usage:
<?php
$list = array('php', 'apache web server');
$str = "php and the apache web server work fine together. php-gtk, for example, won't match. apache web servers shouldn't too.";
echo replace_words($list, $str, function($v) {
return "<strong>{$v}</strong>";
});
?>

This function does not support named subpatterns, so you can't do
<?php
preg_replace_callback('/(?<char>[a-z])/', 'callback', 'word');
function callback($matches) {
var_dump($matches);
}
?>
and expect to get $matches['char'] in your function.

If you're planning to use preg_replace_callback inside a class, you need to use the array() function:
<?php
class MyClass
{
function preg_callback_url($matches)
{
//var_dump($matches);
$url = $matches[1].$matches[2];
$text = '';
$pos = strpos($url,' ');
if ($pos!==FALSE) {
$text = trim(substr($url,$pos+1));
$url = substr($url,0,$pos);
}
return '<a href="'.$url.'" rel="nofollow">'.(($text!='') ? $text : $url).'</a>';
}
function ParseText($text)
{
return preg_replace_callback('/\[(http|https|ftp)(.*?)\]/iS',array( &$this, 'preg_callback_url'), $text);
}
}
?>

This is what i use to read log files and do dns lookups on the ip's from the file.
<?php
function resolve_logs($arr) {
return gethostbyaddr($arr[0]);
}
$logent=file('yourlogfile');
$ipaddr = '/\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}/';
$logent = preg_replace_callback($ipaddr, resolve_logs, $logent);
?>

When you access variables from outside in a callback function, use the $global keyword:
<?php
// global # 1:
global $x;
$x = 0;
$str = '&Bla bla. ►';
$find = '/(\&)([^#])/';
// global # 2:
$replace = create_function('$f',
'global $x; $x ++; return $f[2];';
$str2 = preg_replace_callback($find, $replace, $str);
// $x == 1
// $str2 == 'Bla bla. ►'
// without global, $x would be 0
?>

To access a local variable within a callback, use currying (delayed argument binding). For example
<?php
function curry($func, $arity) {
return create_function('', "
\$args = func_get_args();
if(count(\$args) >= $arity)
return call_user_func_array('$func', \$args);
\$args = var_export(\$args, 1);
return create_function('','
\$a = func_get_args();
\$z = ' . \$args . ';
\$a = array_merge(\$z,\$a);
return call_user_func_array(\'$func\', \$a);
');
");
}
function on_match($transformation, $matches)
{
return $transformation[strtolower($matches[1])];
}
$transform = array('a' => 'Well,', 'd'=>'whatever', 'b'=>' ');
$callback = curry(on_match, 2);
echo preg_replace_callback('/([a-z])/i', $callback($transform), 'Abcd');
echo "\n";
?>
outputs:
"Well, whatever"
The magic lies in this curry function I found here: http://www.sitepoint.com/forums/showthread.php?threadid=336758

To spend more than one parameter can do the following (note the "e" parameter in preg_replace function)
<?
$array = array(
1=>'ONE',
2=>'TWO',
3=>'Three'
);
function search(&$array, $str, $foo, $bar){
return ( empty($array[$str]) ? '['.$foo.'-'.$bar.']' : $array[$str] );
}
function keys(&$array, $str,$foo,$bar){
return preg_replace('/\[(.*?)\]/e',"search(\$array,$1,\$foo,\$bar)",$str);
}
$str = "One [1] Two [2] Three [3], Other parameter [22]";
echo keys($array, $str,'Foo','Bar');
?>

The last example -nested BBCode- has a problem and won't work
it should be
<?php
$regex = '#\[indent]((?:[^\[]|\[(?!/?indent])|(?R))+)\[/indent]#';
?>
([ should be escaped to be \[)
--
a nicer regex i used in a BBCode parser (BBEngine http://www.phpclasses.org/browse/package/4829.html)
This one Captures Tag Arguments ,Empty tags and
also uses ?> for performance , wrapped in a simple function for templating (ofcourse it's one line but note's line size is limited :) )
<?php
/**
* A Template for the recursive tags matcher RE
* it generates it for a given tag ,open bracket and closing one
* $O & $C must be pre-escaped from #'s
* @param String $tag Tag to be parsed recursively
* @param String $O Opeening brackets of tag
* @param String $C Closing brackets of tag
*/
public function Recursive_RE_Generator($tag,$O,$C)
{
$re="#{$O}({$tag}.*?){$C}((?>{$O}(?!/?{$tag}[^{$O}]*?{$C})|
[^{$O}]|(?R))*){$O}/{$tag}{$C}#is";
return $re;
}
?>

The first example is bad, because it creates function for every line it processes. When the file has many lines, you could easily run out of memory. The code should be changed so, that create_function() is used outside of loop.

preg_replace_callback returns NULL when pcre.backtrack_limit is reached; this sometimes occurs faster then you might expect. No error is raised either; so don't forget to check for NULL yourself

it is much better on preformance and better practice to use the preg_replace_callback function instead of preg_replace with the e modifier.
function a($text){return($text);}
// 2.76 seconds to run 50000 times
preg_replace("/\{(.*?)\}/e","a('\\1','\\2','\\3',\$b)",$a);
// 0.97 seconds to run 50000 times
preg_replace_callback("/\{(.*?)\}/s","a",$a);
