在sed中模拟惰性(非贪婪)量词

以及所有其他正则表达式口味!

Finding first occurrence of an expression: POSIX ERE (using -r option) Regex: (EXPRESSION).*|. Sed: sed -r ‍'s/(EXPRESSION).*|./\1/g' # Global `g` modifier should be on Example (finding first sequence of digits) Live demo: $ sed -r 's/([0-9]+).*|./\1/g' <<< 'foo 12 bar 34' 12 How does it work? This regex benefits from an alternation |. At each position engine tries to pick the longest match (this is a POSIX standard which is followed by couple of other engines as well) which means it goes with . until a match is found for ([0-9]+).*. But order is important too. Since global flag is set, engine tries to continue matching character by character up to the end of input string or our target. As soon as the first and only capturing group of left side of alternation is matched (EXPRESSION) rest of line is consumed immediately as well .*. We now hold our value in the first capturing group. POSIX BRE Regex: \(\(\(EXPRESSION\).*\)*.\)* Sed: sed 's/\(\(\(EXPRESSION\).*\)*.\)*/\3/' Example (finding first sequence of digits): $ sed 's/\(\(\([0-9]\{1,\}\).*\)*.\)*/\3/' <<< 'foo 12 bar 34' 12 This one is like ERE version but with no alternation involved. That's all. At each single position engine tries to match a digit. If it is found, other following digits are consumed and captured and the rest of line is matched immediately otherwise since * means more or zero it skips over second capturing group \(\([0-9]\{1,\}\).*\)* and arrives at a dot . to match a single character and this process continues. Finding first occurrence of a delimited expression: This approach will match the very first occurrence of a string that is delimited. We can call it a block of string. sed 's/\(END-DELIMITER-EXPRESSION\).*/\1/; \ s/\(\(START-DELIMITER-EXPRESSION.*\)*.\)*/\1/g' Input string: foobar start block #1 end barfoo start block #2 end -EDE: end -SDE: start $ sed 's/\(end\).*/\1/; s/\(\(start.*\)*.\)*/\1/g' Output: start block #1 end First regex \(end\).* matches and captures first end delimiter end and substitues all match with recent captured characters which is the end delimiter. At this stage our output is: foobar start block #1 end. Then the result is passed to second regex \(\(start.*\)*.\)* that is same as POSIX BRE version above. It matches a single character if start delimiter start is not matched otherwise it matches and captures the start delimiter and matches the rest of characters.

直接回答你的问题

使用方法#2(带分隔符的表达式)，你应该选择两个合适的表达式:

艾德:[^]\ / SDE: http:

用法:

$ sed 's/\([^:/]\/\).*/\1/g; s/\(\(http:.*\)*.\)*/\1/' <<< 'http://www.suepearson.co.uk/product/174/71/3816/'

输出:

http://www.suepearson.co.uk/

注意:对于相同的分隔符，这将不起作用。

sed 's|(http:\/\/[^\/]+\/).*|\1|'

echo "/home/one/two/three/myfile.txt" | sed 's|\(.*\)/.*|\1|'

别麻烦了，我在另一个论坛上看到的:)

Sed当然有它的位置，但这不是其中之一!

正如迪伊所指出的:用切就可以了。在这种情况下，它要简单得多，也安全得多。下面是一个使用Bash语法从URL中提取各种组件的示例:

url="http://www.suepearson.co.uk/product/174/71/3816/"

protocol=$(echo "$url" | cut -d':' -f1)
host=$(echo "$url" | cut -d'/' -f3)
urlhost=$(echo "$url" | cut -d'/' -f1-3)
urlpath=$(echo "$url" | cut -d'/' -f4-)

给你:

protocol = "http"
host = "www.suepearson.co.uk"
urlhost = "http://www.suepearson.co.uk"
urlpath = "product/174/71/3816/"

正如你所看到的，这是一个更加灵活的方法。

(全部归功于Dee)

另一种方法，不使用正则表达式，是使用字段/分隔符方法，如

string="http://www.suepearson.co.uk/product/174/71/3816/"
echo $string | awk -F"/" '{print $1,$2,$3}' OFS="/"

使用纯(GNU) sed仍然有希望解决这个问题。尽管这不是一个通用的解决方案，在某些情况下，你可以使用“循环”来消除字符串中所有不必要的部分，就像这样:

sed -r -e ":loop" -e 's|(http://.+)/.*|\1|' -e "t loop"

-r:使用扩展的正则表达式(用于+和未转义的括号) 定义一个名为"loop"的新标签 -e:在sed中添加命令 "t loop":如果有成功的替换，则跳回标记"loop"

这里唯一的问题是它也会切掉最后一个分隔符('/')，但如果你真的需要它，你仍然可以在“循环”结束后简单地把它放回去，只需要在前面的命令行末尾追加这个额外的命令:

-e "s,$,/,"
