不幸的是，我发现公认的答案的解决方案不能在Linux的Swift 3上编译。下面是一个修改后的版本:

import Foundation

func matches(for regex: String, in text: String) -> [String] {
    do {
        let regex = try RegularExpression(pattern: regex, options: [])
        let nsString = NSString(string: text)
        let results = regex.matches(in: text, options: [], range: NSRange(location: 0, length: nsString.length))
        return results.map { nsString.substring(with: $0.range) }
    } catch let error {
        print("invalid regex: \(error.localizedDescription)")
        return []
    }
}

主要的区别是:

Linux上的Swift似乎需要在Foundation对象上删除NS前缀，而Swift本地没有对应的对象。(参见快速进化提案#86。) Linux上的Swift还需要为RegularExpression初始化和matches方法指定options参数。 出于某种原因，在Linux上的Swift中，将String强制转换为NSString是行不通的，但在源中初始化一个新的NSString是可行的。

这个版本也适用于macOS / Xcode上的Swift 3，唯一的例外是你必须使用NSRegularExpression这个名字而不是RegularExpression。

你可以像这样对字符串使用匹配(regex:):

let array = try "Your String To Search".matching(regex: ".")

使用这个简单的扩展:

public extension String {
    func matching(regex: String) throws -> [String] {
        let regex = try NSRegularExpression(pattern: regex)
        let results = regex.matches(in: self, range: NSRange(startIndex..., in: self))
        return results.map { String(self[Range($0.range, in: self)!]) }
    }
}

我的答案建立在给定答案的基础上，但通过添加额外的支持使正则匹配更加健壮:

不仅返回匹配项，还返回每个匹配项的所有捕获组(参见下面的示例) 这个解决方案支持可选匹配，而不是返回空数组 通过不打印到控制台来避免do/catch，并使用guard构造 将matchingStrings作为String的扩展

在Swift 5中返回所有匹配和捕获组的最快方式

extension String {
    func match(_ regex: String) -> [[String]] {
        let nsString = self as NSString
        return (try? NSRegularExpression(pattern: regex, options: []))?.matches(in: self, options: [], range: NSMakeRange(0, nsString.length)).map { match in
            (0..<match.numberOfRanges).map { match.range(at: $0).location == NSNotFound ? "" : nsString.substring(with: match.range(at: $0)) }
        } ?? []
    }
}

返回一个二维字符串数组:

"prefix12suffix fix1su".match("fix([0-9]+)su")

返回……

[["fix12su", "12"], ["fix1su", "1"]]

// First element of sub-array is the match
// All subsequent elements are the capture groups

let match: (String) -> String = {
    $0.replacingOccurrences(of: #"[^\d+]"#, with: "", options: .regularExpression)
}

                    let nsstr = self as NSString
                    let result = nsstr.substring(with: r.range) as String
                    matches.append(result)
              }
