I'm new to Velocity, but I have some experience in programming. I am, however, having a hard time finding any references to syntax, available commands, etc..... I'd like to do a few things like search, search & replace, search and destroy....and I'm sure there will be others down the road... I tried the Velocity site at Apache but there wasn't much there but dead links. And when I search the web or news groups I get mostly articles about the speed of light or cars.... I was surprised to hear that "contains" was actually a command that would work. So....is "replace" another command that will work?

Is there a good source for this info somewhere so I don't have to keep asking?

Try with:

#if($foo.indexOf("moo foo") >= 0)

or

#if($foo.contains("moo foo"))

I'd like to use a conditional statement that tests content for keywords.
I've only been able to find gt, lt or == as conditionals in any of the
user
guides......

For example:

#set( $bar = ["foo",  "moo foo",  "bar moo foo",  "bar foo moo",  "foo
moo
foo"] )

#foreach ( $foo in $bar )

  #if ( $foo contains "moo foo")

   #do some stuff

  #end

#end


Which will do stuff with "moo foo"  "bar moo foo"  and  "foo moo foo" ;
and ignore "foo"  and  "bar foo moo".

Is there any way to search contents using an if statement in Velocity?
