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)!]) }
    }
}

基本电话号码匹配

let phoneNumbers = ["+79990001101", "+7 (800) 000-11-02", "+34 507 574 147 ", "+1-202-555-0118"]

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

print(phoneNumbers.map(match))
// ["+79990001101", "+78000001102", "+34507574147", "+12025550118"]

我就是这么做的，我希望它能给斯威夫特带来一个新的视角。

在下面的例子中，我将获得[]之间的任何字符串

var sample = "this is an [hello] amazing [world]"

var regex = NSRegularExpression(pattern: "\\[.+?\\]"
, options: NSRegularExpressionOptions.CaseInsensitive 
, error: nil)

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

for match in matches {
   let r = (sample as NSString).substringWithRange(match.range)//cast to NSString is required to match range format.
    println("found= \(r)")
}

@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"]

更新@Mike Chirico到Swift 5

extension String{



  func regex(pattern: String) -> [String]?{
    do {
        let regex = try NSRegularExpression(pattern: pattern, options: NSRegularExpression.Options(rawValue: 0))
        let all = NSRange(location: 0, length: count)
        var matches = [String]()
        regex.enumerateMatches(in: self, options: NSRegularExpression.MatchingOptions(rawValue: 0), range: all) {
            (result : NSTextCheckingResult?, _, _) in
              if let r = result {
                    let nsstr = self as NSString
                    let result = nsstr.substring(with: r.range) as String
                    matches.append(result)
              }
        }
        return matches
    } catch {
        return nil
    }
  }
}

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)!])
        }
    }
}
