A javascript implementation of the `map-query-replace-regexp` command from Emacs, using Ramda

mapQueryReplaceRegex.js

const mapQueryReplaceRegex = (regex, data, tokens) => {
  const token = R.head(tokens)
  const transform = R.replace(regex, token, data)
  
  if(transform === data) {
    return transform
  } else {
   const nextTokens = R.concat(R.tail(tokens), [token]) 
   return mapQueryReplaceRegex(regex, transform, nextTokens)
  }
  
}

const data = "foo bar foo baz foo wibble foo"
const desiredResult = "qux bar bux baz qux wibble bux";

const regex = "foo"
const transformationTokens = ["qux", "bux"]

const actualResult = mapQueryReplaceRegex(regex, data, transformationTokens);

actualResult == desiredResult // true
