Regex to Match and Replace " with '

Question

I am trying to replace the double quotes " with a single quote ' in the below string.

("2016-09-28T09:08:45.812145","50.12"),("2016-09-28T09:09:45.969154","50.13"),("2016-09-28T09:10:45.926659","50.14")

How would I use a regex expression to do this?

Answer 1

Here is one way you can do it:

 var s = '("2016-09-28T09:08:45.812145","50.12"),("2016-09-28T09:09:45.969154","50.13"),("2016-09-28T09:10:45.926659","50.14")'; console.log(s.replace(/"/g,"'"));

Note that the regular expression is fairly simple, the only important point being the g modifier (which is the global modifier, as remarked by Wiktor Stribiżew), so all matches are detected and not just the first one.
