The regex patterns in this gist are intended to match any URLs, | |
including "mailto:foo@example.com", "x-whatever://foo", etc. For a | |
pattern that attempts only to match web URLs (http, https), see: | |

I tried:
$regex = "(?i)\b((?:[a-z][\w-]+:(?:/{1,3}|[a-z0-9%])|www\d{0,3}[.]|[a-z0-9.-]+[.][a-z]{2,4}/)(?:[^\s()<>]+|(([^\s()<>]+|(([^\s()<>]+)))))+(?:(([^\s()<>]+|(([^\s()<>]+))))|[^\s`!()\[\]{};:'".,<>?«»“”‘’]))"; // SCHEME
$found_url = "";
if(preg_match("~^$regex$~i", $description, $m)) $found_url = $m;
if(preg_match("~^$regex$~i", $description, $m)) $found_url .= $m;
But got error: PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ','
Hi
Sorry for asking but regex like this are a bit over my head :-)
I was trying to parse some wsdl files (basicaly xml) and I was wondering: Is there any way to avoid matching things like ab:1234
, xs:complexType
or this:isnotanurl
?
Using node 14.2, it hangs when I try to match the string
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Learning_to_Fly_(Tom_Petty_and_the_Heartbreakers)
Looks like some kind of catastrophic backtracking in the balanced parens clauses, but i'm not sure how to fix it.
My version of this:
(?i)\b(?:[a-z][\w.+-]+:(?:/{1,3}|[?+]?[a-z0-9%]))(?:[^\s()<>]+|\(([^\s()<>]+|(\([^\s()<>]+\)))*\))+(?:\(([^\s()<>]+|(\([^\s()<>]+\)))*\)|[^\s\x60!()\[\]{};:'".,<>?«»“”‘’])
Changes:
- Supports Go (Changed backtick to
\x60
) - Non-URLs like
bit.com/test
aren't recognized - Protocol section is required
- Applied change mentioned above
putting wide characters (Unicode of more than 1 byte) is incorrect into a bracket expression ([ ]
):
[^\s`!()\[\]{};:'".,<>?«»“”‘’] # not a space or one of these punct char
«
is two bytes: "\xc2\xab", which means the pattern will accept \xc2
and \xab
anywhere in the sequence not in a specific order or not even close to each other!
php -r '$s="\xab \xc2 \xc2 \xab"; $v=preg_match_all("/[«]/", $s, $m); var_dump([$v, $m, $s]);' > foo.txt
you need to open foo.txt with a program which can print you bytes.
putting wide characters (Unicode of more than 1 byte) is incorrect into a bracket expression (
[ ]
)
It depends on the language/library. Works fine in Python and node.js
How looks the actual code? I have string $str = "Blaa lorem ipsum domain-name.studio blaa blaa another.com blaa blaa"; and I want to get output:
Yes it contains one or more domains:
domain-name.studio
another.com
Thanks if you have time to help!
