正则表达式 Regex 个人感觉正则表达才是计算机高级语言,超越了人眼的匹配,直追人脑的匹配能力。 我们经常与正则表达打交道,多数情况下我们都是用基本的匹配,比如简单的javascript验证手机\email有效性等,但是遇到复杂的需求,每次都是苦战。 ,去除起来如果是用html parser的匹配有时候又费力又慢,正则用起来很犀利,可是写出来很难,所以建议先用好搜索引擎, 用适当的关键词获取类似的例子,改造一番。然后茶余饭后再阅读本文做进一步的学习理解。
http://www.regexr.com/: This is a really good site where we can get examples and references and test our own expressions to check whether a string matches or not. http://www.regular-expressions.info: This site contains tutorials and examples to learn how to use regular expressions. It also has a useful reference on the particular implementations of the most popular languages and tools. http://www.princeton.edu/~mlovett/reference/Regular-Expressions.pdf (Regular Expressions The Complete Tutorial) by Jan Goyvaerts: As its title states, this is a very complete tutorial on RegEx, including examples in many languages.

# Basic Regular Expressions
Normally a backslash turns off the special meaning for a character. A period is matched by a "." and an asterisk is matched by a "*". BUt if a backslash is placed before a "<," ">," "{," "}," "(," ")," or before a digit, the backslash turns on a special meaning. This was done because these special functions were added late in the life of regular expressions. Changing the meaning of "{" would have broken old expressions. This is a horrible crime punishable by a year of hard labor writing COBOL programs. Instead, adding a backslash added functionality without breaking old programs. Rather than complain about the unsymmetry, view it as evolution.
# Extended Regular Expressions
Two programs use the extended regular expressions: egrep and awk. With these extensions, those special characters preceded by a backslash no longer have the special meaning: "{" , "}", "<", ">", "(", ")" as well as the "\digit". You can't use the { and } in the extended regular expressions, but if you could, you might consider the "?" to be the same as "{0,1}" and the "+" to be the same as "{1,}".
Well, perhaps the "{...}" and "<...>" could be added to the extended expressions. These are the newest addition to the regular expression family. They could be added, but this might confuse people if those characters are added and the "(...)" are not. And there is no way to add that functionality to the extended expressions without changing the current usage. Do you see why? It's quite simple. If "(" has a special meaning, then "(" must be the ordinary character. This is the opposite of the Basic regular expressions, where "(" is ordinary, and "(" is special. The usage of the parentheses is incompatable, and any change could break old programs.
If the extended expression used "( ..|...)" as regular characters, and "(...|...)" for specifying alternate patterns, then it is possible to have one set of regular expressions that has full functionality. This is exactly what GNU emacs does, by the way.
# 1.1 False positive
we've been writing regular expressions that partially match pieces across all the text. Sometimes this isn't desirable, imagine for example we wanted to match the word "success" in a log file. We certainly don't want that pattern to match a line that says "Error: unsuccessful operation"! That is why it is often best practice to write as specific regular expressions as possible to ensure that we don't get false positives when matching against real world text.

**Metacharacter **
//metacharacters by using their upper case letters means opposite sets of each of these metacharacters
\d
\w alphanumeric letters and digits [A-Za-z0-9_]
\s the space (␣), the tab (\t), the new line (\n) and the carriage return (\r)
\b which matches the boundary between a word and a non-word character. It's most useful in capturing entire words (pattern \w+\b).
^ (hat)
Start of the line
[^abc] will match any single character except for the letters a, b, or c.
$ (dollar sign)

Quantifier ? + * {}
Match groups and nested groups
Imagine for example that you had a command line tool to list all the image files you have in the cloud. You could then use a pattern such as ^(IMG\d+\.png)$ to capture and extract the full filename, but if you only wanted to capture the filename without the extension, you could use the pattern ^(IMG\d+)\.png$ which only captures the part before the period.

Image there are two cursor pointers for regex expression and test string respectively, Namingly: cursor1 for regex expression, cursor2 for test string; Example regex: \S+: The basic rules are: At a new pos(except start points), if cursor1 not at the beginning of regex meaning the position is at :, it will always traceback first to the first pattern \S+ If these adjacent partial patterns have overlap abilities, then when the later pattern find a mismatch it will ask its previous pattern to spit out characters one by one to do backtrack matching; Similarly, if the outside pattern is repetition of the inside pattern, example (x+x+)+y, then the inside iteration, the second x+ need to give up some x also to match (x+x+)(x+x+)..., example

Back reference many systems allow you to reference your captured groups by using \0 (usually the full matched text), \1 (group 1), \2 (group 2), etc. This is useful for example when you are in a text editor and doing a search and replace using regular expressions to swap two numbers, you can search for "(\d+)-(\d+)" and replace it with "\2-\1" to put the second captured number first, and the first captured number second for example. 回溯引用、前后查找、嵌入条件 https://blog.csdn.net/wzzfeitian/article/details/8867888

图文并茂讲解:
- Matching a Username 匹配用户名
Pattern:
/^[a-z0-9_-]{3,16}$/
Description:
We begin by telling the parser to find the beginning of the string (^), followed by any lowercase letter (a-z), number (0-9), an underscore, or a hyphen. Next, {3,16} makes sure that are at least 3 of those characters, but no more than 16. Finally, we want the end of the string ($).

- Matching a Password 匹配密码
Pattern:/^[a-z0-9_-]{6,18}$/
Description:
Matching a password is very similar to matching a username. The only difference is that instead of 3 to 16 letters, numbers, underscores, or hyphens, we want 6 to 18 of them ({6,18}).

3.Matching a Hex Value 匹配十六进制
Pattern:/^#?([a-f0-9]{6}|[a-f0-9]{3})$/
Description:
We begin by telling the parser to find the beginning of the string (^). Next, a number sign is optional because it is followed a question mark. The question mark tells the parser that the preceding character — in this case a number sign — is optional, but to be "greedy" and capture it if it's there. Next, inside the first group (first group of parentheses), we can have two different situations. The first is any lowercase letter between a and f or a number six times. The vertical bar tells us that we can also have three lowercase letters between a and f or numbers instead. Finally, we want the end of the string ($).
The reason that I put the six character before is that parser will capture a hex value like #ffffff. If I had reversed it so that the three characters came first, the parser would only pick up #fff and not the other three f's.
4.Matching a Slug 匹配短标签
Pattern:/^[a-z0-9-]+$/
Description:
You will be using this regex if you ever have to work with mod_rewrite and pretty URL's. We begin by telling the parser to find the beginning of the string (^), followed by one or more (the plus sign) letters, numbers, or hyphens. Finally, we want the end of the string ($).
5.Matching an Email 匹配邮箱
Pattern:/^([a-z0-9_\.-]+)@([\da-z\.-]+)\.([a-z\.]{2,6})$/
Description:
We begin by telling the parser to find the beginning of the string (^). Inside the first group, we match one or more lowercase letters, numbers, underscores, dots, or hyphens. I have escaped the dot because a non-escaped dot means any character. Directly after that, there must be an at sign. Next is the domain name which must be: one or more lowercase letters, numbers, underscores, dots, or hyphens. Then another (escaped) dot, with the extension being two to six letters or dots. I have 2 to 6 because of the country specific TLD's (.ny.us or .co.uk). Finally, we want the end of the string ($).
- Matching a URL 匹配URL
Pattern:/^(https?:\/\/)?([\da-z\.-]+)\.([a-z\.]{2,6})([\/\w \.-]*)*\/?$/
Description:
This regex is almost like taking the ending part of the above regex, slapping it between "http://" and some file structure at the end. It sounds a lot simpler than it really is. To start off, we search for the beginning of the line with the caret.
The first capturing group is all option. It allows the URL to begin with "http://", "https://", or neither of them. I have a question mark after the s to allow URL's that have http or https. In order to make this entire group optional, I just added a question mark to the end of it.
Next is the domain name: one or more numbers, letters, dots, or hypens followed by another dot then two to six letters or dots. The following section is the optional files and directories. Inside the group, we want to match any number of forward slashes, letters, numbers, underscores, spaces, dots, or hyphens. Then we say that this group can be matched as many times as we want. Pretty much this allows multiple directories to be matched along with a file at the end. I have used the star instead of the question mark because the star says zero or more, not zero or one. If a question mark was to be used there, only one file/directory would be able to be matched.
Then a trailing slash is matched, but it can be optional. Finally we end with the end of the line.
- Matching an IP Address 匹配IP地址
Pattern:/^(?:(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.){3}(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)$/
Description:
Now, I'm not going to lie, I didn't write this regex; I got it from here. Now, that doesn't mean that I can't rip it apart character for character.
The first capture group really isn't a captured group because(?:(?:was placed inside which tells the parser to not capture this group (more on this in the last regex). We also want this non-captured group to be repeated three times — the {3} at the end of the group. This group contains another group, a subgroup, and a literal dot. The parser looks for a match in the subgroup then a dot to move on.
The subgroup is also another non-capture group. It's just a bunch of character sets (things inside brackets): the string "25" followed by a number between 0 and 5; or the string "2" and a number between 0 and 4 and any number; or an optional zero or one followed by two numbers, with the second being optional.
After we match three of those, it's onto the next non-capturing group. This one wants: the string "25" followed by a number between 0 and 5; or the string "2" with a number between 0 and 4 and another number at the end; or an optional zero or one followed by two numbers, with the second being optional.
We end this confusing regex with the end of the string.
8.Matching an HTML Tag 匹配HTML标签
Pattern:/^<([a-z]+)([^<]+)*(?:>(.*)<\/\1>|\s+\/>)$/
Description:
One of the more useful regexes on the list. It matches any HTML tag with the content inside. As usually, we begin with the start of the line.
First comes the tag's name. It must be one or more letters long. This is the first capture group, it comes in handy when we have to grab the closing tag. The next thing are the tag's attributes. This is any character but a greater than sign (>). Since this is optional, but I want to match more than one character, the star is used. The plus sign makes up the attribute and value, and the star says as many attributes as you want.
Next comes the third non-capture group. Inside, it will contain either a greater than sign, some content, and a closing tag; or some spaces, a forward slash, and a greater than sign. The first option looks for a greater than sign followed by any number of characters, and the closing tag. \1 is used which represents the content that was captured in the first capturing group. In this case it was the tag's name. Now, if that couldn't be matched we want to look for a self closing tag (like an img, br, or hr tag). This needs to have one or more spaces followed by "/>".
The regex is ended with the end of the line.
