我想从匹配正则表达式模式的字符串中提取子字符串。

所以我在寻找这样的东西:

func matchesForRegexInText(regex: String!, text: String!) -> [String] {
   ???
}

这就是我得到的:

func matchesForRegexInText(regex: String!, text: String!) -> [String] {

    var regex = NSRegularExpression(pattern: regex, 
        options: nil, error: nil)

    var results = regex.matchesInString(text, 
        options: nil, range: NSMakeRange(0, countElements(text))) 
            as Array<NSTextCheckingResult>

    /// ???

    return ...
}

问题是,matchesInString提供给我一个NSTextCheckingResult数组,其中NSTextCheckingResult。range类型为NSRange。

NSRange与Range<String不兼容。索引>,它阻止我使用text。substringwithrange(…)

你知道如何在没有太多行代码的情况下实现这个简单的事情吗?

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

其他回答

@p4bloch如果你想从一系列捕获括号中捕获结果,那么你需要使用NSTextCheckingResult的rangeAtIndex(index)方法,而不是range。下面是@MartinR针对Swift2的方法,适用于捕获括号。在返回的数组中,第一个结果[0]是整个捕获,然后各个捕获组从[1]开始。我注释掉了map操作(因此更容易看到我所更改的内容),并将其替换为嵌套循环。

func matches(for regex: String!, in text: String!) -> [String] {

    do {
        let regex = try NSRegularExpression(pattern: regex, options: [])
        let nsString = text as NSString
        let results = regex.matchesInString(text, options: [], range: NSMakeRange(0, nsString.length))
        var match = [String]()
        for result in results {
            for i in 0..<result.numberOfRanges {
                match.append(nsString.substringWithRange( result.rangeAtIndex(i) ))
            }
        }
        return match
        //return results.map { nsString.substringWithRange( $0.range )} //rangeAtIndex(0)
    } catch let error as NSError {
        print("invalid regex: \(error.localizedDescription)")
        return []
    }
}

举个例子,假设你想拆分一串标题年份,比如“Finding Dory 2016”,你可以这样做:

print ( matches(for: "^(.+)\\s(\\d{4})" , in: "Finding Dory 2016"))
// ["Finding Dory 2016", "Finding Dory", "2016"]

非常感谢Lars Blumberg用Swift 4捕获小组和完整比赛的答案,这对我帮助很大。我还为那些确实希望出现错误的人添加了一些内容。当他们的正则表达式无效时localizedDescription响应:

extension String {
    func matchingStrings(regex: String) -> [[String]] {
        do {
            let regex = try NSRegularExpression(pattern: regex)
            let nsString = self as NSString
            let results  = regex.matches(in: self, options: [], range: NSMakeRange(0, nsString.length))
            return results.map { result in
                (0..<result.numberOfRanges).map {
                    result.range(at: $0).location != NSNotFound
                        ? nsString.substring(with: result.range(at: $0))
                        : ""
                }
            }
        } catch let error {
            print("invalid regex: \(error.localizedDescription)")
            return []
        }
    }
}

对于我来说,localizedDescription作为错误有助于理解转义时发生了什么错误,因为它显示了swift试图实现的最终正则表达式。

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

Swift 4没有NSString。

extension String {
    func matches(regex: String) -> [String] {
        guard let regex = try? NSRegularExpression(pattern: regex, options: [.caseInsensitive]) else { return [] }
        let matches  = regex.matches(in: self, options: [], range: NSMakeRange(0, self.count))
        return matches.map { match in
            return String(self[Range(match.range, in: self)!])
        }
    }
}

上面的大多数解决方案只给出完全匹配,结果忽略了捕获组,例如:^\d+\s+(\d+)

为了获得预期的捕获组匹配,你需要(Swift4):

public extension String {
    public func capturedGroups(withRegex pattern: String) -> [String] {
        var results = [String]()

        var regex: NSRegularExpression
        do {
            regex = try NSRegularExpression(pattern: pattern, options: [])
        } catch {
            return results
        }
        let matches = regex.matches(in: self, options: [], range: NSRange(location:0, length: self.count))

        guard let match = matches.first else { return results }

        let lastRangeIndex = match.numberOfRanges - 1
        guard lastRangeIndex >= 1 else { return results }

        for i in 1...lastRangeIndex {
            let capturedGroupIndex = match.range(at: i)
            let matchedString = (self as NSString).substring(with: capturedGroupIndex)
            results.append(matchedString)
        }

        return results
    }
}
