Answer 1

You can use this function, which can split a string by multiple runes:

import "fmt"
import "strings"

func SplitAny(s string, seps string) []string {
    splitter := func(r rune) bool {
        return strings.ContainsRune(seps, r)
    }
    return strings.FieldsFunc(s, splitter)
}

func main() {
    words := SplitAny("xxxxx:yyyyy:zzz.aaa.bbb.cc:dd:ee:ff", ".:")
    fmt.Println(strings.Join(words, " "))
}

Output:

xxxxx yyyyy zzz aaa bbb cc dd ee ff

Or even with one line of code:

words := strings.FieldsFunc(s, func(r rune) bool { return strings.ContainsRune(" .:", r) })
