how to add quotes in the entire string by using powershell

Question

I have this string

[{listenport:443,connectaddress:10.1.10.20,connectport:443,firewallrulename:port443,direction:Inbound,action:Allow,protocol:TCP},{listenport:80,connectaddress:10.1.10.20,connectport:80,firewallrulename:port80,direction:Inbound,action:Allow,protocol:TCP}]

i'm wondering how can I write a function to convert it to

[{"listenport":"443","connectaddress":"10.1.10.20","connectport":"443","firewallrulename":"port443","direction":"Inbound","action":"Allow","protocol":"TCP"},{"listenport":"80","connectaddress":"10.1.10.20","connectport":"80","firewallrulename":"port80","direction":"Inbound","action":"Allow","protocol":"TCP"}]

I have tried to use insert and indexof , but couldn't figure out how to do for an entire string

Answer 1

$str = '[{listenport:443,connectaddress:10.1.10.20,connectport:443,firewallrulename:port443,direction:Inbound,action:Allow,protocol:TCP},{listenport:80,connectaddress:10.1.10.20,connectport:80,firewallrulename:port80,direction:Inbound,action:Allow,protocol:TCP}]'
$new = $str.Replace(',','","').Replace('{','{"').Replace('}','"}').replace(':','":"')
cls
"Your original string is:"
$str
""
"Your new string is:"
$new
