I need write a pattern to remove currency symbol and comma. eg Fr.-145,000.01
After the pattern matcher should return -145000.01.
The pattern i am using:
^[^0-9\\-]*([0-9\\-\\.\\,]*?)[^0-9\\-]*$
This will return -145,000.01
Then I remove the comma to get -145000.01, I want to ask if that's possible that I change the pattern and directly get -145000.01
String pattern = "^[^0-9\\-]*([0-9\\-\\.\\,]*?)[^0-9\\-]*$";
Pattern p = Pattern.compile(pattern);
Matcher m = p.matcher(str);
if(m.matches()) {
System.out.println(m.group(1));
}
I expect the output could resolve the comma
You can simply it with String.replaceAll() and simpler regex (providing you are expecting the input to be reasonably sane, i.e. without multiple decimal points embedded in the numbers or multiple negative signs)
String str = "Fr.-145,000.01";
str.replaceAll("[^\\d-.]\\.?", "")
If you are going down this route, I would sanity check it by parsing the output with BigDecimal or Double.
One approach would be to just collect our desired digits, ., + and - in a capturing group followed by an optional comma, and then join them:
([+-]?[0-9][0-9.]+),?
Test
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
final String regex = "([+-]?[0-9][0-9.]+),?";
final String string = "Fr.-145,000.01\n"
+ "Fr.-145,000\n"
+ "Fr.-145,000,000\n"
+ "Fr.-145\n"
+ "Fr.+145,000.01\n"
+ "Fr.+145,000\n"
+ "Fr.145,000,000\n"
+ "Fr.145\n"
+ "Fr.145,000,000,000.01";
final Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex, Pattern.MULTILINE);
final Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(string);
while (matcher.find()) {
System.out.println("Full match: " + matcher.group(0));
for (int i = 1; i <= matcher.groupCount(); i++) {
System.out.println("Group " + i + ": " + matcher.group(i));
}
}
Demo
String str = "Fr.-145,000.01";
Pattern regex = Pattern.compile("^[^0-9-]*(-?[0-9]+)(?:,([0-9]{3}))?(?:,([0-9]{3}))?(?:,([0-9]{3}))?(\\.[0-9]+)?[^0-9-]*$");
Matcher matcher = regex.matcher(str);
System.out.println(matcher.replaceAll("$1$2$3$4$5"));
Output:
-145000.01
It looks for number with up to 3 commas (Up to 999,999,999,999.99), and replaces it with the digits.
My approach would be to remove all the unnecessary parts using replaceAll.
The unnecessary parts are, apparently:
Any sequence which is not digits or minus at the beginning of the string.
Commas
The first pattern is represented by ^[^\\d-]+. The second is merely ,.
Put them together with an |:
Pattern p = Pattern.compile("(^[^\\d-]+)|,");
Matcher m = p.matcher(str);
String result = m.replaceAll("");
You could 2 capturing groups and make use of repeating matching using the \G anchor to assert the position at the end of the previous match.
(?:^[^0-9+-]+(?=[.+,\d-]*\.\d+$)([+-]?\d{1,3})|\G(?!^)),(\d{3})
In Java
String regex = "(?:^[^0-9+-]+(?=[.+,\\d-]*\\.\\d+$)([+-]?\\d{1,3})|\\G(?!^)),(\\d{3})";
Explanation
(?: Non capturing group
^[^0-9+-]+ Match 1+ times not a digit, + or -
(?= Positive lookahead, assert that what follows is:
[.+,\d-]*\.\d+$ Match 0+ times what is allowed and assert ending on . and 1+ digits
) Close positive lookahead
( Capturing group 1
[+-]?\d{1,3}) Match optional + or - followed by 1-3 digits
| Or
\G(?!^) Assert position at the end of prevous match, not at the start
), Close capturing group 1 and match ,
(\d{3}) Capture in group 2 matching 3 digits
In the replacement use the 2 capturing groups $1$2

I need to monitor a log file which will give me lines in the following way...
type=CWD<some text>cwd="something within double quotes"<some text><enter>
type=PATH<some text>name="something within double quotes"<some text>
Now I need a regex expression which will take those two variables in double quotes and append them to form a single string with a '/' in between
Eg: I need <cwd_vale>/<name_value>
(\"\S*\")(\"\S*\") will give two strings within double quotes to two groups
I want the way to append these strings. Help is so very welcomed!
You can match both lines and use 2 capture groups using a negated character class [^"] as \S does not match the spaces between the double quotes.
Then concat the 2 capture groups with a /
cwd="([^"]*)".*\R.*?name="([^"]*)"
cwd="([^"]*)" Capture the content between double quotes after cwd=" in group 1
.*\R Match the rest of the line and a newline
.*?name="([^"]*)" Match as least as possible chars, match name=" and capture the contents between the double quotes in group 2
Java demo | Regex demo
String regex = "cwd=\"([^\"]*)\".*\\R.*?name=\"([^\"]*)\"";
String string = "type=CWD<some text>cwd=\"something within double quotes\"<some text><enter>\n"
+ "type=PATH<some text>name=\"something within double quotes\"<some text>";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex);
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(string);
if (matcher.find()) {
System.out.println(matcher.group(1) + "/" + matcher.group(2));
}
Output
something within double quotes/something within double quotes
For the values on a single line, and the second part can optionally start with /, you can optionally match the forward slash outside of the second group so that it would not be there when concatenating group 1 and group 2 having double //
String regex = "\\\"(\\S*)\\\".*?\\\"/?(\\S*)\\\"";
String string = "cwd=\"/root\" name=\"/msv_backup/archives/auditlogs\"";
Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex);
Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(string);
if (matcher.find()) {
System.out.println(matcher.group(1) + "/" + matcher.group(2));
}
Output
/root/msv_backup/archives/auditlogs

How to match words between double quotes in lines not containing specific words
input:
System.log("error");
new Exception("error");
view.setText("message");
From the above input, I would like to ignore lines with log and Exception words in them(Case sensitive) and match words in between double quotes.
Expected output
message
I have been trying to use look ahead without luck
(?s)^(?!log)".+"
I need this for a search in IntelliJ using regex
In your pattern (?s)^(?!log)".+" the negative lookahead does not contain a quantifier so it will assert that what is directly after the start of the string is not log
What you could do is use a quantifier .* with an alternation to match either log or Exception and add word boundaries \b to prevent them being part of a larger word.
Then you might use negated character classes [^"] to match not a double quote and use a capturing group ([^"]+) for the value between the double quotes.
^(?!.*\b(?:log|Exception)\b)[^"]*"([^"]+)"
In Java:
String regex = "^(?!.*\\b(?:log|Exception)\\b)[^\"]*\"([^\"]+)\"";
Regex demo
If you want to make the dot to match a newline you can prepend (?s) to the pattern.
My guess is that this expression would likely work for capturing the message,
^(?!.*log.*|.*exception.*).*?"(.+?)".*
Demo 1
Example
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
final String regex = "^(?!.*log.*|.*exception.*).*?"(.+?)".*";
final String string = "System.log(\"error\");\n"
+ "new Exception(\"error\");\n"
+ "view.setText(\"message\");";
final Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(regex, Pattern.MULTILINE | Pattern.CASE_INSENSITIVE);
final Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(string);
while (matcher.find()) {
System.out.println("Full match: " + matcher.group(0));
for (int i = 1; i <= matcher.groupCount(); i++) {
System.out.println("Group " + i + ": " + matcher.group(i));
}
}
I cannot understand why 2nd group is giving me only 0. I expect 3000. And do point me to a resource where I can understand better.
import java.util.regex.Matcher;
import java.util.regex.Pattern;
public class RegexMatches {
public static void main( String args[] ) {
// String to be scanned to find the pattern.
String line = "This order was placed for QT3000! OK?";
String pattern = "(.*)(\\d+)(.*)";
// Create a Pattern object
Pattern r = Pattern.compile(pattern);
// Now create matcher object.
Matcher m = r.matcher(line);
if (m.find( )) {
System.out.println("Found value: " + m.group(0) );
System.out.println("Found value: " + m.group(1) );
System.out.println("Found value: " + m.group(2) );//?
System.out.println("Found value: " + m.group(3) );
}else {
System.out.println("NO MATCH");
}
}
}
Precise the pattern, add QT before the \d pattern, or use .*? instead of the first .* to get as few chars as possible.
String pattern = "(.*QT)(\\d+)(.*)";
or
String pattern = "(.*?)(\\d+)(.*)";
will do. See a Java demo.
The (.*QT)(\\d+)(.*) will match and capture into Group 1 any 0+ chars other than line break chars, as many as possible, up to the last occurrence of QT (followed with the subsequent subpatterns), then will match and capture 1+ digits into Group 2, and then will match and capture into Group 3 the rest of the line.
The .*? in the alternative pattern will matchand capture into Group 1 any 0+ chars other than line break chars, as few as possible, up to the first chunk of 1 or more digits.
You may also use a simpler pattern like String pattern = "QT(\\d+)"; to get all digits after QT, and the result will be in Group 1 then (you won't have the text before and after the number).
The * quantifier will try to match as many as possible, because it is a greedy quantifier.
You can make it non-greedy (lazy) by changing it to *?
Then, your regex will become :
(.*?)(\d+)(.*)
And you will match 3000 in the 2nd capturing group.

I have to extract two number in a string, this is always like this:
file_Sig201701311539043872_1736587_614007_marketing.000
I need to save in different value :
1736587
614007
How i can do this ?
I tried with: \_(.*?)\_ but not work properly.
Try the following pattern matcher:
final Pattern NUMBER_MATCHER = Pattern.compile("_(\\d+)_(\\d+)");
Matcher matcher = NUMBER_MATCHER.matcher(/* your file name */);
if (matcher.find()) {
System.out.println("matcher.group(1) = " + matcher.group(1));
System.out.println("matcher.group(2) = " + matcher.group(2));
}
which prints:
matcher.group(1) = 1736587
matcher.group(2) = 614007
For now the regex works for underscore followed by any number of digits followed by an underscore and then again any number of digits.
You can leverage lookarounds:
(?<=_)(\\d+)(?=_)
The captured groups would contain the required digits.
The zero width negative lookbehind, (?<=_) makes sure the match is preceded by a _
The zero width negative lookbehind, (?=_) makes sure the match is followed by a _
(\d+) matches one or more digits and put in captured group
Try with this one.
Sample Code
final Pattern NUMBER_MATCHER = Pattern.compile("_(\\d*)_(\\d*)");
Matcher matcher = NUMBER_MATCHER.matcher("file_Sig201701311539043872_1736587_614007_marketing.000");
if (matcher.find()) {
System.out.println(matcher.group(1));
System.out.println(matcher.group(2));
}
I'd like my mPattern to match FFF1 or FFF3 strings at least 4 times in a search-string. I've written two pattern versions but neither of those give any matches.
Pattern mPattern = Pattern.compile("(FFF1|FFF3){4,}");
ver2:
Pattern mPattern = Pattern.compile("(FFF1{4,}|FFF3{4,})");
search-string is (example):
0DCB1C992B37173740244875C143D50ACDBA0422CD01D73D3C78F05ED7BBC2B33F9D78A7FFF342C0241C6B56B11EC1867984C20F42A4FAC5B9C0

The pattern "(FFF1|FFF3){4,}" will match FFF1 or FFF3 placed adjacent, with a repetition of 4 or more. I guess there can be any characters between multiple occurrences. In that case, use the following regex:
"^(?:.*?(FFF1|FFF3)){4,}.*$"
.*? match any character till the next FFF1 or FFF3, then match FFF1|FFF3. Repeat this sequence 4 or more times (applied on entire non-capturing group).
You can use the above pattern directly with String#matches(String) method. Or, if you are building Pattern and Matcher objects, then just use the following pattern with Matcher#find() method:
"(?:.*?(FFF1|FFF3)){4,}"
Working code:
String str = "..."; // initialize
Pattern mPattern = Pattern.compile("(?x)" + // Ignore whitespace
"(?: " + // Non-capturing group
" .*? " + // 0 or more repetition of any character
" (FFF1|FFF3) " + // FFF1 or FFF3
"){4,} " // Group close. Match group 4 or more times
);
Matcher matcher = mPattern.matcher(str);
System.out.println(matcher.find());
