So i have this regex:
=([0-9A-Za-z_-]+),?
and i need have a string like:
foo=bar,pine=apple,tree,bar=bie
or
foo=bar,pine=apple,tree
or
pine=apple,tree
the regex works for cases where i only have 1 value.
but since we have comma's in the list of values for the key.
the regex just craps out and my code does half of what i want it to do but doesn't get the 2nd value.
How do i fix my regex to take both values regardless of where in the string it is?
alone, between 2 others, at the end.
i tried some stuff but couldn't figure it out.
Attempt 1:
=([0-9A-Za-z,_-]+),=?
In this case, it matches the one where it's in the middle but it fails on the others because = does not exist.
Attempt 2:
=[0-9A-Za-z_-]+([,]+[0-9A-Za-z_-]*),?
Matches too bar,pine and tree,bar for example
EDIT::
This seems to work maybe....
=('[0-9A-Za-z,_-]+'),*|=([0-9A-Za-z_-]+),*
if i use quotes for multi values..
You can split on variable names - that will leave only the values:
s := regexp.MustCompile("[^,\\s]+=").Split("foo=bar,pine=apple,tree,bar=bie", -1)
fmt.Println(s)
# => [ "bar", "apple,tree", "bie"]

I have this regex that's worked well so far that splits 'name=value' pairs separated by a given character.
(?s)([^\s=]+)=(.*?)(?=\s+[^\s=]+=|\Z)
I know the separator, but the problem is in the example below (tab separated):
usrName=Wilma sev=4 cat=Detection CommandLine="C:\powershell.exe" -Enc 0ATQBpAG0AAcABDAHIAZQBkAHMAIgA= IOCValue= ProcessEndTime=2023-01-18 15:51:05
https://regex101.com/r/1wgVxs/5
Some values can have no value in the case of 'IOCValue' which works as expected, however some values like the CommandLine are giving me up to -Enc as one match and the remainder to the next pair as another.
What I'm hoping to get out from the above is:
usrName=Wilma
sev=4
cat=Detection
CommandLine="C:\powershell.exe" -Enc 0ATQBpAG0AAcABDAHIAZQBkAHMAIgA=
IOCValue=
ProcessEndTime=2023-01-18 15:51:05
But I'm getting:
usrName=Wilma
sev=4
cat=Detection
CommandLine="C:\powershell.exe" -Enc
0ATQBpAG0AAcABDAHIAZQBkAHMAIgA=
IOCValue=
ProcessEndTime=2023-01-18 15:51:05
Given I know the separator is a tab I think what I need is to only look for name=value pairs when they are at the start of the line or proceeded by the separator (tab). Is this possible?
Note, I can expect a space separator too, but I have a less performant and messy non-regex version I can send these too, so presume tab.
You may use this simplified regex:
(?s)([^\s=]+)=(.*?)(?=\t|\Z)
Updated RegEx Demo
Here, lookahead (?=\t|\Z) will make sure that value part is followed by either a tab character or end position.
I need to modify the positions number 10 of every line that finds the word 'Example' (can´t use the actual data here) and add the string '(ID) '. It doesn´t necessarily have to begin with 9 numbers, it just needs to add the string to the position number 10.
For example, this line should be modified like this:
ORIGINAL: 123456789This line is being used as an Example
SOLUTION: 123456789(ID) This line is being used as an Example
So far I have this, to find the Example and copy the rest of the line as to not lose the text:
Find: (.*)Example
Bonus points if it works for two different words 'Example1' and 'Example2' in different sentences, the 'and also' part of this example would change in every line.
ORIGINAL: 123456789This line is being used as an Example1 and also Example2
SOLUTION: 123456789(ID) This line is being used as an Example1 and also Example2
This would have this search:
Find: (.*)Example1(.*)Example2
Thank you
You could try:
Find: (\d{9})(?=.*\bExample1\b.*\bExample2\b)
Replace: $(ID)
^^^ single space after (ID)
Demo
The regex pattern used matches and captures a 9 digit number (you may adjust to any width, or range of widths, which you want). It also uses a positive lookahead to assert that Example1 and Example2 in fact occur later in the same line:
(?=.*\bExample1\b.*\bExample2\b)
This is how you add characters in a certain position, even tho I accepted Tims answer because it´s very similar and made me figure it out:
^(\S{9})(?=.*\bExample1\b.*\bExample2\b)
As you can see, I only added '^' so it´s the position from the start of the line, and 'S' instead of 'd' so it counts characters that are not whitespace, instead of numbers. This should work for any type of line you have.
Here is a sample string.
"BLAH, blah, going to the store &^5, light Version 12.7(2)L6, anyway
plus other stuff Version 3.3.4.6. Then goes on an on for several lines..."
I want to capture only the first version number without including the word version if possible but not include the periods and parenthesis. The result would stop when it encounters a comma. The result would be:
"1272L6"
I don't want it to include other instances of version in the text. Can this be done?
I've tried (?<=version)[^,]* I know it does not address removing the periods and parens and does not address the subsequent versions.
This exact RegEx, maybe not the best solution, but it might help you to get 1272L6:
([0-9]{2})\.([0-9]{1})\(([0-9]{1})\)([A-Z]{1}[0-9]{1})
It creates four groups (where $1$2$3$4 is your target 1272L6) and passes ., ) and (.
You might change {1} to other numbers of repetitions, such as {1,2}.
Assuming the version number is fixed on format but not on the specific digits or letters, you could do this.
String s = "this is a test 12.7(2)L6, 13.7(2)L6, 14.7(2)L6";
String reg = "(\\d\\d\\.\\d\\(\\d\\)[A-Z]\\d),";
Matcher m = Pattern.compile(reg).matcher(s);
if (m.find()) { // should only find first one
System.out.println(m.group(1).replaceAll("[.()]", ""));
}
In have following code:
set[str] noNnoE = { v | str v <- eu, (/\b[^eEnN]*\b/ := v) };
The goal is to filter out of a set of strings (called 'eu'), those strings that have no 'e' or 'n' in them (both upper- and lowercase). The regular expression I've provided:
/\b[^eEnN]?\b/
seems to work like it should, when I try it out in an online regex-tester.
When trying it out in the Rascel terminal it doesn't seem to work:
rascal>/\b[^eEnN]*\b/ := "Slander";
bool: true
I expected no match. What am I missing here? I'm using the latest (stable) Rascal release in Eclipse Oxygen1a.
Actually, the online regex-tester is giving the same match that we are giving. You can look at the match as follows:
if (/<w1:\b[^eEnN]?\b>/ := "Slander")
println("The match is: |<w1>|");
This is assigning the matched string to w1 and then printing it between the vertical bars, assuming the match succeeds (if it doesn't, it returns false, so the body of the if will not execute). If you do this, you will get back a match to the empty string:
The match is: ||
The online regex tester says the same thing:
Match 1
Full match 0-0 ''
If you want to prevent this, you can force at least one occurrence of the characters you are looking for by using a +, versus a ?:
rascal>/\b[^eEnN]+\b/ := "Slander";
bool: false
Note that you can also make the regex match case insensitive by following it with an i, like so:
/\b[^en]+\b/i
This may make it easier to write if you need to add more characters into the character class.
This solution (/\b[^en]+\b/i) doesn't work for strings consisting of two words, such as the Czech Republic.
Try /\b[^en]+\b$/i. That seems to work for me.
Is it possible to write a regular expression that matches all strings that does not only contain numbers? If we have these strings:
abc
a4c
4bc
ab4
123
It should match the four first, but not the last one. I have tried fiddling around in RegexBuddy with lookaheads and stuff, but I can't seem to figure it out.
(?!^\d+$)^.+$
This says lookahead for lines that do not contain all digits and match the entire line.
Unless I am missing something, I think the most concise regex is...
/\D/
...or in other words, is there a not-digit in the string?
jjnguy had it correct (if slightly redundant) in an earlier revision.
.*?[^0-9].*
#Chad, your regex,
\b.*[a-zA-Z]+.*\b
should probably allow for non letters (eg, punctuation) even though Svish's examples didn't include one. Svish's primary requirement was: not all be digits.
\b.*[^0-9]+.*\b
Then, you don't need the + in there since all you need is to guarantee 1 non-digit is in there (more might be in there as covered by the .* on the ends).
\b.*[^0-9].*\b
Next, you can do away with the \b on either end since these are unnecessary constraints (invoking reference to alphanum and _).
.*[^0-9].*
Finally, note that this last regex shows that the problem can be solved with just the basics, those basics which have existed for decades (eg, no need for the look-ahead feature). In English, the question was logically equivalent to simply asking that 1 counter-example character be found within a string.
We can test this regex in a browser by copying the following into the location bar, replacing the string "6576576i7567" with whatever you want to test.
javascript:alert(new String("6576576i7567").match(".*[^0-9].*"));
/^\d*[a-z][a-z\d]*$/
Or, case insensitive version:
/^\d*[a-z][a-z\d]*$/i
May be a digit at the beginning, then at least one letter, then letters or digits
Try this:
/^.*\D+.*$/
It returns true if there is any simbol, that is not a number. Works fine with all languages.
Since you said "match", not just validate, the following regex will match correctly
\b.*[a-zA-Z]+.*\b
Passing Tests:
abc
a4c
4bc
ab4
1b1
11b
b11
Failing Tests:
123
if you are trying to match worlds that have at least one letter but they are formed by numbers and letters (or just letters), this is what I have used:
(\d*[a-zA-Z]+\d*)+
If we want to restrict valid characters so that string can be made from a limited set of characters, try this:
(?!^\d+$)^[a-zA-Z0-9_-]{3,}$
or
(?!^\d+$)^[\w-]{3,}$
/\w+/:
Matches any letter, number or underscore. any word character
.*[^0-9]{1,}.*
Works fine for us.
We want to use the used answer, but it's not working within YANG model.
And the one I provided here is easy to understand and it's clear:
start and end could be any chars, but, but there must be at least one NON NUMERICAL characters, which is greatest.
I am using /^[0-9]*$/gm in my JavaScript code to see if string is only numbers. If yes then it should fail otherwise it will return the string.
Below is working code snippet with test cases:
function isValidURL(string) {
var res = string.match(/^[0-9]*$/gm);
if (res == null)
return string;
else
return "fail";
};
var testCase1 = "abc";
console.log(isValidURL(testCase1)); // abc
var testCase2 = "a4c";
console.log(isValidURL(testCase2)); // a4c
var testCase3 = "4bc";
console.log(isValidURL(testCase3)); // 4bc
var testCase4 = "ab4";
console.log(isValidURL(testCase4)); // ab4
var testCase5 = "123"; // fail here
console.log(isValidURL(testCase5));
I had to do something similar in MySQL and the following whilst over simplified seems to have worked for me:
where fieldname regexp ^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$
and fieldname NOT REGEXP ^[0-9]+$
This shows all fields that are alphabetical and alphanumeric but any fields that are just numeric are hidden. This seems to work.
example:
name1 - Displayed
name - Displayed
name2 - Displayed
name3 - Displayed
name4 - Displayed
n4ame - Displayed
324234234 - Not Displayed
