Regular expression to extract text between square brackets
(15 answers)
Closed 4 years ago.
I'm not very handy with regex and I need to select everything outside <> to get the length of the string, excluding the "<>".
For example: first<second>third<fourth>fifth should give me first third fifth.
How can I do it? I spent some hours searching the web but I didn't really find what I needed. The regex is needed for use in javascript.
You can always replace the text between smaller than and greater than symbols using regex below.
/<\w+>/g
In this case the text which is outside remains.

I have a csv file with movie data but some of the titles have the starting word at the end of the title for example
281,River Wild, The
282,Time to Kill, A
need to be
281,The River Wild
282,A Time to Kill
For anyone wondering the solution was to use a regular expression
,(.+?), (.+?)$
and the replace with
,$2$1
and click on regular expression and wrap around

I have a link that I want to grab a specific character out of. This is the link in question
"https://example.com/example-myexample/from/MyHouse/to/48DFjjhf333333333/view"
I want to grab the following id 48DFjjhf333333333 from this link using a regular expression. In this link /to/ and /view never change. The only thing that ever changes is the id that you see 48DFjjhf333333333.
I've tried the following regular expression:
\/to(.*?)\/view
This grabs everything along with /to/ and /view as follows /to/48DFjjhf333333333/view. I want to grab just the ID itself 48DFjjhf333333333
You just need to access the matching group with [1]
console.log("https://example.com/example-myexample/from/MyHouse/to/48DFjjhf333333333/view".match(/\/to\/(.*?)\/view/)[1])

I want to select the second 'M' in the following string using regex.
So, the M after T.
P3Y6M4DT12H30M5S
Sometimes the string looks like one of these:
PT12H30M5S
PT12H30M5.234523S
I've tried multiple expressions and searched for a similar case but couldn't find anything.
Could someone help me build an expression to select the M after T so I can use it in my regex replace function?
(?!.+T.+)(M)
Selects everything until the first T and then selects everything until the first M and captures it.

What special characters must be escaped in regular expressions?

I'd like to setup auto download of some Anime using an RSS feed, but only 720p versions. The format never changes and it always looks like below.
[Blahblah] Blahepisode - 12 [720p].mkv
Here is the regex I have come up with but cannot get to work properly.
/.\+[720p]+/g
Any help would be appreciated!
Assuming you have lines that look like your example, it will be mached with the following Regex:
.+(?:\[720p\].mkv)
It maches one or more chacacters at start, followed by '[720p].mkv'.
Note that the Square brackets are escaped to '\[' and '\]', otherwise they have special meaning.
if you only need '[720p]' then you can use:
\[720p\]
