Description

public static void main(String[] args) {
String s = "The number of ${item} items currently available: ${number}";
String result = StrSubstitutor.replace(s, Collections.singletonMap("item", "monitor"));
System.out.println(result);
}

This results in: "The number of monitor items currently available: ${number}".

I'd need a default value for a placeholder that cannot be resolved.

String result = StrSubstitutor.replace(s, Collections.singletonMap("item", "monitor"), "N/A");

-> "The number of monitor items currently available: N/A".
