I have a string and would like to match a part of it.
The string is Accept: multipart/mixedPrivacy: nonePAI: <sip:4168755400#1.1.1.238>From: <sip:4168755400#1.1.1.238>;tag=5430960946837208_c1b08.2.3.1602135087396.0_1237422_3895152To: <sip:4168755400#1.1.1.238>
I want to match PAI: <sip:4168755400#
the whitespace can be a word so i would like to use .* but if i used that it matches most of the string
The example on that link is showing what i'm matching if i use the whitespace instead of .*
(PAI: <sip:)((?:\([2-9]\d{2}\)\ ?|[2-9]\d{2}(?:\-?|\ ?))[2-9]\d{2}[- ]?\d{4})#
The example on that link is showing what i'm trying to achieve with .* but it should only match PAI: <sip:4168755400#
(PAI:.*<sip:)((?:\([2-9]\d{2}\)\ ?|[2-9]\d{2}(?:\-?|\ ?))[2-9]\d{2}[- ]?\d{4})#
I tried lookaround but failing.
Any idea?
thanks
Matching the single space can be updated by using a character class matching either a space or a word character and repeat that 1 or more times to match at least a single occurrence.
Note that you don't have to escape the spaces, and in both occasions you can use an optional character class matching either a space or hyphen [ -]?
If you want the match only, you can omit the 2 capturing groups if you want to.
(PAI:[ \w]+<sip:)((?:\([2-9]\d{2}\) ?|[2-9]\d{2}[ -]?)[2-9]\d{2}[- ]?\d{4})#
Regex demo
The regex should be like
PAI:.*?(<sip:.*?#)
Explanation:
PAI:.*? find the word PAI: and after the word it can be anything (.*) but ? is used to indicate that it should match as few as possible before it found the next expression.
(<sip:.*?#) capturing group that we want the result.
<sip:.*?# find <sip: and after the word it can be anything .*? before it found #.

How can I use regex in notepad++ to make a query like this:
I have a list with subdomains containing three words such as
web1.com
test.web2.com
www.test.web3.com
I want to filter so that only three words remain and something like this comes out:
web1.com
test.web2.com
test.web3.com
I was able to delete so that only the domain remains, but this is not what I want
^(?:.+\.)?([^.\r\n]+\.[^.\r\n]+)$
An idea to match until the endpart starts and capture that.
^.*?\.([\w-]+\.[\w-]+\.[\w-]+)$
Replace with $1 (what was captured by the first group)
.*? matches lazily any amount of any characters (besides newline)
[\w-]+ char-class matches one or more word characters and hyphen
See this demo at regex101 (more explanation on the right side)
In Notepad++ be sure to have unchecked: [ ] dot matches newline
Another take at it using a positive lookahead to assert the 3 "words" to the right, allowing for non whitespace chars excluding a dot using [^\s.]
In the replacement use an empty string.
^\S+?\.(?=[^\s.]+\.[^\s.]+\.[^\s.]+$)
See a regex demo.
I am trying to match a word with regex. for example, I want to match only first 2 folders in below string
/folder1/folder2/filder3/folder4/folder5
I wrote a below regex to match first two folders but it matches everything till /folder5 but I wanted to match only till /folder2
/(\w.+){2}
I guess .+ matches everything. Any idea how to handle this?
You can use
^/[^/]+/[^/]+
^(?:/[^/]+){2}
Or, if you need to escape slashes:
^\/[^\/]+\/[^\/]+
^(?:\/[^\/]+){2}
See the regex demo. [^/] is a negated character class that matches any char other than a / char.
I have the following scenario sending Auth Headers to an application that can range from the following:
"APIAuth 5b6b7ed3b9708d1168455da4:hW1ZeYYLJFGBP8tEHAEGoiGD1xM="
"APIAuth-HMAC-SHA256 5b6b7ed3b9708d1168455da4:hW1ZeYYLJFGBP8tEHAEGoiGD1xM="
etc.
What I'd like to do is to be able to capture APIAuth and APIAuth-HMAC-SHA256 from the header leaving me the client_id:signature like so:
string = '5b6b7ed3b9708d1168455da4:hW1ZeYYLJFGBP8tEHAEGoiGD1xM='
I want to be able to grab this value from any APIAut-WHATEVER-ENCRYPTION
I've been playing around with regex's but the best I have was this /\ABearer\s+/i. I thought this would have worked to grab both because the \s+ is more than one of any single character so I don't know why its not working. Could someone please assist? Regexs are not my strong suit. Thank you.
For the example strings, you could match the parts that you want:
\bAPIAuth(?:-\S+)?\s+\K[^\s:"]+:[^\s:"]+
Explanation
\bAPIAuth A word boundary, followed by APIAuth
(?:-\S+)? Optionally match - and 1+ non whitespace chars
\s+\K Match 1+ whitespace chars and forget what is matched so far using \K
[^\s:"]+:[^\s:"]+ Match : surrounded by chars other than a whitespace char or : or " if those are also part of the string
See a rubular regex demo.
You could also match only the first part, and then replace with an empty string.
\bAPIAuth(?:-\S+)?\s+

I need to create regex to find last underscore in string like 012344_2.0224.71_3 or 012354_5.00123.AR_3.335_8
I have wanted find last part with expression [^.]+$ and then find underscore at found element but I can not handle it.
I hope you can help me :)
Just use a negative character class [^_] that will match everything except an underscore (this helps to ensure no other underscores are found afterwards) and end of string $
Pattern would look as such:
(_)[^_]*$
The final underscore _ is in a capturing group, so you are wanting to return the submatch. You would replace the group 1 (your underscore).
See it live: Regex101
Notice the green highlighted portion on Regex101, this is your submatch and is what would be replaced.
The simplest solution I can imagine is using .*\K_, however not all regex flavours support \K.
If not, another idea would be to use _(?=[^_]*$)
You have a demo of the first and second option.
Explanation:
.*\K_: Fetches any character until an underscore. Since the * quantifier is greedy, It will match until the last underscore. Then \K discards the previous match and then we match the underscore.
_(?=[^_]*$): Fetch an underscore preceeded by non-underscore characters until the end of the line
If you want nothing but the "net" (i.e., nothing matched except the last underscore), use positive lookahead to check that no more underscores are in the string:
/_(?=[^_]*$)/gm
Demo
The pattern [^.]+$ matches not a dot 1+ times and then asserts the end of the string. The will give you the matches 71_3 and 335_8
What you want to match is an underscore when there are no more underscores following.
One way to do that is using a negative lookahead (?!.*_) if that is supported which asserts what is at the right does not match any character followed by an underscore
_(?!.*_)
Pattern demo
Im using Visual Studio 2017 and in a long long text file Im searching for a particular function but unable to find
here's what the regex Im using
c\.CreateMap\<(\w)+\,\s+Address\>
and I want to in these
c.CreateMap<ClientAddress, Address>()
c.CreateMap<Responses.SiteAddress, Data.Address>()
and so on.
As soon as I add "Address" in the regex it stops matching any.
what am I doing wrong?
You can try this
c\.CreateMap\<\w+\.?\w+?\,\s*\w*?\.?Address\>
Explanation
c\.CreateMap\< - Matches c\.CreateMap\<.
\w+ - Matches any word character one or more time.
\.? - Matches '.' zero or one time.
\, - Matches ','.
\s* - Matches space zero or more time.
\w - Matches word character zero or more time.
\.? - Matches '.' zero or one time.
Address\> - Matches Address\>.
Demo
P.S- In case you also want to match something like this.
c.CreateMap<Responses.SiteAddress.abc, Data.Address.xyz>()
You can use this.
c\.CreateMap\<(\w+\.?\w+?)*\,\s*(?:\w*?\.?)*Address(\.\w*)?\>
Demo
Here is general regex I can suggest:
c\.CreateMap\<[\w.]+,\s+(?:[\w.]+\.)?Address\>\s*\(\s*\)
This will match any term with dots or word characters in the first position in the diamond. In the second, position, it will match Address, or some parent class names, followed by a dot separator, followed by Address.
Demo
Note that I also include the empty function call parentheses in the regex. As well, I allow for flexibility in the whitespace may appear after the diamond, or between the parentheses.
In your second example, you have extra dot which is not handled. Your regex needs little modification. Also, you don't need to escape < or > or , Use this,
c\.CreateMap<([\w.])+,\s+[\w.]*Address>
Demo
To match any of the functions on your question, you can use:
c\.CreateMap[^)]+\)
