Ok here is an example of the text I got
"data": [
{
"post_id": "164902600239452_10202071734744222",
"actor_id": 164902600239452,
"target_id": null,
"likes": {
"href": "https://www.facebook.com/browse/likes/?id=10202071734744222",
"count": 2,
"sample": [
678063648,
100000551340876,
100000805495404,
100000905843684,
],
"friends": [
],
"user_likes": false,
"can_like": true
},
"comments": {
"can_remove": false,
"can_post": true,
"count": 0,
"comment_list": [

},
"message": "Down to the FINAL 3 SEATS for It Factor LIVE 2013... WHO will snag them before we close registration on October 15th???\n\nLearn more now at http://www.ItFactorLIVE.com/"
}, ]
I want to match only the numbers inside the brackets after the "sample":
"sample": [
678063648,
100000551340876,
100000805495404,
100000905843684,
],
so that I end up with this
678063648
100000551340876
100000805495404
100000905843684
May somebody please help me with the correct regex to make that happen?
OK - I have looked at the solution that #hwnd had suggested, as well as the link you gave to the "real" data, and came up with the following:
\d+(?=,*\s+(?:\d|\]))
You can see at http://regex101.com/r/pL3gW2 that this matches every string of digits in the sample that is inside square brackets.
The key difference with #hwnd's solution was the addition of a * after the ,, making the comma after the digits optional: this allows the expression to match the last set of numbers before the close ]. Without it, the match skipped the last number inside the brackets.
It's been said before: there are powerful JSON parsers available in almost any language / platform. Look into them.
see if this works for you
pattern = (\d+)(?=(?:(?!\[).)*\]) Demo

I'm trying to find every "color" value and replace it with a specific string, but only the "color" value of every "name" that has Bismuthinite" in it.
[
{
"name": "Poor Gneiss Bismuthinite",
"blockName": "tfc:ore/poor_bismuthinite/gneiss",
"order": 789,
"color": 5015620,
"drawing": false
},
{
"name": "Slate Halite",
"blockName": "tfc:ore/halite/slate",
"order": 1046,
"color": 7153517,
"drawing": false
},
The information wthin the next brackets (block? im not sure what the terminology is, i'm very new to coding in general) should not be selected or altered in any way. Only the information that matches "name" includes Bismuthinite" .
I've tried using a multiline find and replace using the ToolBucket plugin for Notepad++, but either it won't accomplish what I want it to do, or I just don't know how.
I'm trying to build a regex query for a database and it's got me stumped. If I have a string with a varying number of elements that has an ordered structure how can I find if it matches another string exactly OR some exact sub string when read from the left?
For example I have these strings
Canada.Ontario.Toronto.Downtown
Canada.Ontario
Canada.EasternCanada.Ontario.Toronto.Downtown
England.London
France.SouthFrance.Nice
They are structured by most general location to specific, left to right. However, the number of elements varies with some specifying a country.region.state and so on, and some just country.town. I need to match not only the words but the order.
So if I want to match "Canada.Ontario.Toronto.Downtown" I would want to both get #1 and #2 and nothing else. How would I do that? Basically running through the string and as soon as a different character comes up it's not a match but still allow a sub string that ends "early" to match like #2.
I've tried making groups and using "?" like (canada)?.?(Ontario)?.? etc but it doesn't seem to work in all situations since it can match nothing as well.
Edit as requested:
Mongodb Database Collection:
[
{
"_id": "doc1",
"context": "Canada.Ontario.Toronto.Downtown",
"useful_data": "Some Data"
},
{
"_id": "doc2",
"context": "Canada.Ontario",
"useful_data": "Some Data"
},
{
"_id": "doc3",
"context": "Canada.EasternCanada.Ontario.Toronto.Downtown",
"useful_data": "Some Data"
},
{
"_id": "doc4",
"context": "England.London",
"useful_data": "Some Data"
},
{
"_id": "doc5",
"context": "France.SouthFrance.Nice",
"useful_data": "Some Data"
},
{
"_id": "doc6",
"context": "",
"useful_data": "Some Data"
}
]
User provides "Canada", "Ontario", "Toronto", and "Downtown" values in that order and I need to use that to query doc1 and doc2 and no others. So I need a regex pattern to put in here: collection.find({"context": {$regex: <pattern here>}) If it's not possible I'll just have to restructure the data and use different methods of finding those docs.
At each dot, start an nested optional group for the next term, and add start and end anchors:
^Canada(\.Ontario(\.Toronto(\.Downtown)?)?)?$
See live demo.
i have create a programming language KAGSA, and i have to create a syntax highlighter i start with VSCode highlighter i write every thing well but i have problem with regex of strings (more than one line) and comments (more than one line) this is the code :
Match is the code:
Comments :
"comments": {
"patterns": [{
"name": "comment.line.shebang.kagsa",
"match": "//..*|/\\*(.*?|\n)*\\*/|//|/\\**\\*"
}]
},
The problem is wit the /*Comment*/ comment.
and string code :
"strings": {
"name": "string.quoted.double.kagsa",
"patterns": [{
"name": "string.quoted.double.kagsa",
"match": "'(.*?)'|\"(.*?)\"|``(.*?|\n)*``"
}]
},
my problem is with ``String``
and the Color i get :
[the output color][https://i.stack.imgur.com/NPbS0.png]
You have this issue because match doesn't work for multiline string literals.
I found a similar problem.
As said by Gama11 in his answer:
Try to use a begin / end pattern instead of a simple match.
I would like to create a VS Code snippet where I input a part in CamelCase, and the same string is output in snake_case at some other place in the snippet.
Based on this SO post Here's my attempted snippet, but I have a trailing _ that needs to be removed by hand, not ideal:
"test": {
"prefix": "test",
"body": "${1} -> ${1/([A-Z])+([a-z]+)/${1:/downcase}${2}_/g}"
},
"camelToSnakeCase": {
"prefix": "test",
"body": [
"${1} -> ${1/([A-Z][a-z]+$)|([A-Z][a-z]+)/${1:/downcase}${2:/downcase}${2:+_}/g}"
],
"description": "transform from CamelCase to snake_case"
}
In order to differentiate between some last capture group like Abcd and the preceding capture groups, I used an alternation:
([A-Z][a-z]+$)|([A-Z][a-z]+) must be in this order
so group 1 will be at the end of the input because of the $ indicator and group 2 will not be at the end. And group 2s will always have at least one more group after them. Then, using the conditional ${2:+_} only insert an underscore if there is a group 2 - because there must be a following group 1.
This keybinding version also works if you have a different workflow:
{
"key": "alt+3", // whatever keybinding you wish
"command": "extension.multiCommand.execute",
"args": {
"sequence": [
"cursorWordLeftSelect",
"editor.action.transformToSnakecase",
"editor.action.transformToLowercase",
// "cursorLineEnd" // if you want this
]
},
"when": "editorTextFocus && !editorHasSelection"
}
Type your word and trigger the keybinding. Uses the macro extension multi-command.
I would like to create a new Syntax Rule in Sublime in order to search a string pattern so that that pattern is highlighted. The parttern I am looking for is IPC or TST, therefore I was making use of the following Sublime Syntax rule
{ "name": "a3",
"scopeName": "source.a3",
"fileTypes": ["a3"],
"patterns": [
{ "name": "IPC",
"match": "\\b\\w(IPC|TST)\\w\\b "
}
],
"uuid": "c76f733d-879c-4c1d-a1a2-101dfaa11ed8"
}
But for some reason or another, it doesn't work at all.
Could someone point me out in the right direction?
Thanks in advance
After looking around and testing a lot, I have found the issue, apparently apart from identifying the patter, I should invoke the colour, for doing it I have to make use of "capture", being the command as follows:
{ "name": "IPC colour",
"match": "\\b(IPC|TST)\\b",
"captures": {
"1": { "name": "meta.preprocessor.diagnostic" }
}
},
Where "name": "meta.preprocessor.diagnostic" will indicate the sort of colour assign to the found pattern.
regards!
