This function passes its arguments to base::gsub() in order to find and
replace string patterns (regular expressions) within
the URL and the response body of httr2_response objects.
gsub_response(response, pattern, replacement, ...)An httr2_response or http2_request object to sanitize.
From base::gsub(): "character string containing a regular
expression (or character string for fixed = TRUE) to be matched in the
given character vector." Passed to gsub(). See the docs for gsub() for
further details.
A replacement for the matched pattern, possibly including
regular expression backreferences. Passed to gsub(). See the docs for
gsub() for further details.
Additional logical arguments passed to gsub(): ignore.case,
perl, fixed, and useBytes are the possible options.
An httr2_response object, same as was passed in, with the
pattern replaced in the URLs and bodies.
Note that, unlike gsub(), the first argument of the function is response,
not pattern, while the equivalent argument in gsub(), "x", is placed
third. This difference is to maintain consistency with the other redactor
functions in httptest2, which all take response as the first argument.
This function also can be applied to an http2_request object to replace
patterns inside the request URL.
