Scala views allows you to define some variables with @defining block (see Reausable values), however it doesn't allow you to re-assignate it, so your pseudocode won't work as expected.

In such case you need to write custom getter in your model, which will return a valid value, instead doing it with temporary values in the views. You can also access any static Java method which will process your incoming string according to some conditions.

I must to say, that I have no idea what exactly you want to achieve, however I think, that can be solved with solutions proposed above.
