JAVA Get text from String

Hi I get this String from server :
id_not="autoincrement"; id_obj="-"; id_tr="-"; id_pgo="-"; typ_not=""; tresc="Nie wystawił"; datetime="-"; lon="-"; lat="-";
I need to create a new String e.x String word and send a value which I get from String tresc="Nie wystawił"

Like #Jan suggest in comment you can use regex for example :
String str = "id_not=\"autoincrement\"; id_obj=\"-\"; id_tr=\"-\"; id_pgo=\"-\"; typ_not=\"\"; tresc=\"Nie wystawił\"; datetime=\"-\"; lon=\"-\"; lat=\"-\";";
Pattern p = Pattern.compile("tresc(.*?);");
Matcher m = p.matcher(str);
if (m.find()) {
System.out.println(m.group());
}
Output
tresc="Nie wystawił";
If you want to get only the value of tresc you can use :
Pattern p = Pattern.compile("tresc=\"(.*?)\";");
Matcher m = p.matcher(str);
if (m.find()) {
System.out.println(m.group(1));
}
Output
Nie wystawił

Something along the lines of
Pattern p = Pattern.compile("tresc=\"([^\"]+)\");
Matcher m = p.matcher(stringFromServer);
if(m.find()) {
String whatYouWereLookingfor = m.group(1);
}
should to the trick. JSON parsing might be much better in the long run if you need additional values

Your question is unclear but i think you get a string from server and from that string you want the string/value for tresc. You can first search for tresc in the string you get. like:
serverString.substring(serverString.indexOf("tresc") + x , serverString.length());
Here replace x with 'how much further you want to pick characters.
Read on substring and delimiters
As values are separated by semicolon so annother solution could be:
int delimiter = serverstring.indexOf(";");
//in string thus giving you the index of where it is in the string
// Now delimiter can be -1, if lets say the string had no ";" at all in it i.e. no ";" is not found.
//check and account for it.
if (delimiter != -1)
String subString= serverstring.substring(5 , iend);
Here 5 means tresc is on number five in string, so it will five you tresc part.
You can then use it anyway you want.

How to split a long string in Java?

How to edit this string and split it into two?
String asd = {RepositoryName: CodeCommitTest,RepositoryId: 425f5fc5-18d8-4ae5-b1a8-55eb9cf72bef};
I want to make two strings.
String reponame;
String RepoID;
reponame should be CodeCommitTest
repoID should be 425f5fc5-18d8-4ae5-b1a8-55eb9cf72bef
Can someone help me get it? Thanks

Here is Java code using a regular expression in case you can't use a JSON parsing library (which is what you probably should be using):
String pattern = "^\\{RepositoryName:\\s(.*?),RepositoryId:\\s(.*?)\\}$";
String asd = "{RepositoryName: CodeCommitTest,RepositoryId: 425f5fc5-18d8-4ae5-b1a8-55eb9cf72bef}";
String reponame = "";
String repoID = "";
Pattern r = Pattern.compile(pattern);
Matcher m = r.matcher(asd);
if (m.find()) {
reponame = m.group(1);
repoID = m.group(2);
System.out.println("Found reponame: " + reponame + " with repoID: " + repoID);
} else {
System.out.println("NO MATCH");
}
This code has been tested in IntelliJ and runs without error.
Output:
Found reponame: CodeCommitTest with repoID: 425f5fc5-18d8-4ae5-b1a8-55eb9cf72bef

Assuming there aren't quote marks in the input, and that the repository name and ID consist of letters, numbers, and dashes, then this should work to get the repository name:
Pattern repoNamePattern = Pattern.compile("RepositoryName: *([A-Za-z0-9\\-]+)");
Matcher matcher = repoNamePattern.matcher(asd);
if (matcher.find()) {
reponame = matcher.group(1);
}
and you can do something similar to get the ID. The above code just looks for RepositoryName:, possibly followed by spaces, followed by one or more letters, digits, or hyphen characters; then the group(1) method extracts the name, since it's the first (and only) group enclosed in () in the pattern.

Get certain substring from String java

I can have this string as below :
String s = "chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_24666&isHL=1&cssFileName=haynes";
or
String s = "chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_24666";
I need to get the number ("24666" in the examples).
String res = s.substring(s.lastIndexOf("s_")+ 2) this returns me the number + chars till the end of the string(the second example is ok). But I need to stop after the number ends. How can I do that.? Thanks

You can use regExp
String s = "chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_24666";
//OR
//String s = "chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_24666&isHL=1&cssFileName=haynes";
s=s.replaceAll(".*?s_(\\d+).*","$1");
System.out.println(s);
OUTPUT:
24666
Where,
.*?s_ means anything before s_ (s_ inclusive)
(\\d+) means one or more digits () used for group
$1 means group 1 which is digits after s_
Note:Assumed that your every string follows specific format which includes s_ and number after s_.

You can split the string by the character & to get the parameters, and split each parameter with the = to get the parameter name and parameter value. And now look for the parameter name "sectionId", and cut the first 2 characters of its value to get the number, and you can use Integer.parseInt() if you need it as an int.
Note that this solution is flexible enough to process all parameters, not just the one you're currently interested in:
String s = "chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_24666&isHL=1&cssFileName=haynes";
String[] params = s.split("&");
for (String param : params) {
String[] nameValue = param.split("=");
if ("sectionId".equals(nameValue[0])) {
int number = Integer.parseInt(nameValue[1].substring(2));
System.out.println(number); // Prints 24666
// If you don't care about other parameters, this will skip the rest:
break;
}
}
Note:
You might want to put Integer.parseInt() into a try-catch block in case an invalid number would be passed from the client:
try {
int number = Integer.parseInt(nameValue[1].substring(2));
} catch (Exception e) {
// Invalid parameter value, not the expected format!
}

Try this:
I use a check in the substring() method - if there is no "&isHL" in the string (meaning its type 2 you showed us), it will just read until the string ends. otherwise, it will cut the string before the "&isHL". Hope this helps.
Code:
String s = "chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_**24666**";
int endIndex = s.indexOf("&isHL");
String answer = s.substring(s.lastIndexOf("s_") + 2, endIndex == -1 ? s.length() : endIndex);

Try following:
String s = "chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_24666&isHL=1&cssFileName=haynes";
String tok[]=s.split("&");
for(String test:tok){
if(test.contains("s_")){
String next[]=test.split("s_");
System.out.println(next[1]);
}
}
Output :
24666
Alternatively you can simply remove all other words if they are not required as below
String s="chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_24666&isHL=1&cssFileName=haynes";
s=s.replaceAll(".*s_(\\d+).*","$1");
System.out.println(s);
Output :
24666
The dig over here is splitting your string using a Regular Expression to further divide the string into parts and get what is required. For more on Regular Expressions visit this link.

You could sue this regex : (?<=sectionId=s_)(\\d+) This uses positive look-behind.
demo here

Following code will work even if there is multiple occurrence of integer in given string
String inputString = "chapterId=c_a&sectionId=s_24666&isHL=1&cssFileName=haynes_45";
String[] inputParams = inputString.split("&");
for (String param : inputParams)
{
String[] nameValue = param.split("=");
try {
int number = Integer.parseInt(getStringInt(nameValue[1]));
System.out.println(number);
}
catch(IllegalStateException illegalStateException){
}
}
private String getStringInt(String inputString)
{
Pattern onlyInt = Pattern.compile("\\d+");
Matcher matcher = onlyInt.matcher(inputString);
matcher.find();
String inputInt = matcher.group();
return inputInt;
}
OUTPUT
2466
1
45

Use split method as
String []result1 = s.split("&");
String result2 = tempResult[1];
String []result3 = result2.split("s_");
Now to get your desire number you just need to do
String finalResult = result3[1];
INPUT :
String s = "chapterId=c_1&sectionId=s_24666&isHL=1&cssFileName=haynes";
OUPUT :
24666

Matcher: "No match found..."

I'm getting an error in matcher saying "No match found
at java.util.regex.Matcher.group(Matcher.java:468)".
My commented code's below. I've been changing the number within m.group, so I now suspect something's up with my regex. Archetype's a string like this: We #plan_to# #deliver# #highly_effective# #esolutions# for today's #data_driven# #market_leaders#.
List<String> phraseCollection = parserHelper.getPhrases(fileKontent,"phrases:");
String archetype = parserHelper.getRandomElement(phraseCollection);
boolean flagga = true;
while(flagga == true){
Pattern ptrn = Pattern.compile("#[^#]+#");
Matcher m = ptrn.matcher(archetype);
String fromMatcher = m.group(0);//first word surrounded by hash, without the hash
String col = ":";
String token = fromMatcher+col;//token to pass to getPhrase
List<String> pCol = parserHelper.getPhrases(fileKontent, token);
String repl = parserHelper.getRandomElement(pCol); //new word to replace with
String hash = "#";
String tk2 = hash + fromMatcher + hash; //word surrounded by hash to be replaced, hash and all
archetype = parserHelper.replace(archetype, tk2, repl); //now archetype should have 1 less hashed word
flagga = m.find(); //false when all hash gone
}
String theArcha = archetype;
return theArcha;

Your problem is that you never call find before trying to get group, that is why you don't have match.
You need this line of code:
m.find();
Before you do
String fromMatcher = m.group(0); //first word surrounded by hash, without the hash
But even then, you will get it all with hash tags around, to avoid that you should create group only for inner text around hash tags like this:
Pattern ptrn = Pattern.compile("#([^#]+)#");
And when you are accessing your group it will be group number 1 (because 0 is whole pattern). So change getting group like this:
String fromMatcher = m.group(1); //first word surrounded by hash, without the hash

Extract text from string Java

With this string "ADACADABRA". how to extract "CADA" From string "ADACADABRA" in java.
and also how to extract the id between "/" and "?" from the link below.
http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/zaaU9lJ34c5?rel=0
output should be: zaaU9lJ34c5
but should use "/" and "?" in the process.

and also how to extract the id between "/" and "?" from the link below.
http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/zaaU9lJ34c5?rel=0
output should be: zaaU9lJ34c5
Should be :
String url = "http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/zaaU9lJ34c5?rel=0";
String str = url.substring(url.lastIndexOf("/") + 1, url.indexOf("?"));

String s = "ADACADABRA";
String s2 = s.substring(3,7);
Here 3 specifies the beginning index, and 7 specifies the stopping point.
The string returned contains all the characters from the beginning index, up to, but not including, the ending index.

I'm not entirely sure what you mean by extract, so I've provided the code to remove it from the String, I'm not certain if this is what you want.
public static void main (String args[]){
String string = "ADACADABRA";
string = string.replace("CADA", "");
System.out.println(string);
}

This is untested but something like this may help for the youtube part:
String youtubeUrl = "http://www.youtube-nocookie.com/embed/zaaU9lJ34c5?rel=0";
String[] urlParts = youtubeUrl.split("/");
String videoId = urlParts[urlParts.length - 1];
videoId = videoId.substring(0, videoId.indexOf("?"));
Extracting CADA from the string makes no sense. You will need to specify how you have determined that CADA is the string to extract.
E.g. is it because it is the middle 4 characters? Is it because you are stripping off 3 characters each side? Are you just looking for the String "CADA"? Is it characters 3,7 of the String? Is it the first 4 of the last 7 characters of a String? Is it because it contains 2 vowels and 2 consanants? I could go on..

String regex = "CADA";
Pattern p = Pattern.compile(regex, Pattern.MULTILINE);
Matcher m = p.matcher(originalText);
while (m.find()) {
String outputThis = m.group(1);
}

Probably, you don't take in account the fact of java.lang.String immutability. That's why you need to assign the result of substringing to a new variable.
