我在一个正则表达式后,将验证一个完整的复杂的英国邮政编码只在输入字符串。所有不常见的邮政编码形式必须包括以及通常。例如:

匹配

CW3 9不锈钢 SE5 0EG SE50EG Se5 0eg WC2H 7LT

不匹配

aWC2H 7LT WC2H 7LTa WC2H

我怎么解决这个问题?


当前回答

我们得到了一个说明:

UK postcodes must be in one of the following forms (with one exception, see below): 
    § A9 9AA 
    § A99 9AA
    § AA9 9AA
    § AA99 9AA
    § A9A 9AA
    § AA9A 9AA
where A represents an alphabetic character and 9 represents a numeric character.
Additional rules apply to alphabetic characters, as follows:
    § The character in position 1 may not be Q, V or X
    § The character in position 2 may not be I, J or Z
    § The character in position 3 may not be I, L, M, N, O, P, Q, R, V, X, Y or Z
    § The character in position 4 may not be C, D, F, G, I, J, K, L, O, Q, S, T, U or Z
    § The characters in the rightmost two positions may not be C, I, K, M, O or V
The one exception that does not follow these general rules is the postcode "GIR 0AA", which is a special valid postcode.

我们想出了这个:

/^([A-PR-UWYZ][A-HK-Y0-9](?:[A-HJKS-UW0-9][ABEHMNPRV-Y0-9]?)?\s*[0-9][ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2}|GIR\s*0AA)$/i

但是注意-这允许组之间有任意数量的空格。

其他回答

上面的一些正则表达式有点限制性。请注意真正的邮政编码:“W1K 7AA”将失败,因为上面的“位置3 - AEHMNPRTVXY仅使用”规则将不允许“K”。

正则表达式:

^(GIR 0AA|[A-PR-UWYZ]([0-9]{1,2}|([A-HK-Y][0-9]|[A-HK-Y][0-9]([0-9]|[ABEHMNPRV-Y]))|[0-9][A-HJKPS-UW])[0-9][ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2})$

似乎更准确一点,请参阅维基百科上题为“英国的邮政编码”的文章。

注意,这个正则表达式只要求大写字符。

更大的问题是,您是限制用户输入,只允许实际存在的邮政编码,还是只是试图阻止用户在表单字段中输入完全的垃圾。正确匹配每一个可能的邮政编码,并在未来校对,是一个更难的难题,除非你是HMRC,否则可能不值得这么做。

根据维基百科的表格

这种模式适用于所有情况

(?:[A-Za-z]\d ?\d[A-Za-z]{2})|(?:[A-Za-z][A-Za-z\d]\d ?\d[A-Za-z]{2})|(?:[A-Za-z]{2}\d{2} ?\d[A-Za-z]{2})|(?:[A-Za-z]\d[A-Za-z] ?\d[A-Za-z]{2})|(?:[A-Za-z]{2}\d[A-Za-z] ?\d[A-Za-z]{2})

当在Android / Java上使用它时,使用\\d

接受的答案反映了皇家邮政给出的规则,尽管正则表达式中有一个拼写错误。这个错字似乎在gov.uk网站上也有(就像在XML存档页面中一样)。

在格式A9A 9AA中,规则允许在第三个位置出现P字符,而正则表达式不允许这样。正确的正则表达式应该是:

(GIR 0AA)|((([A-Z-[QVX]][0-9][0-9]?)|(([A-Z-[QVX]][A-Z-[IJZ]][0-9][0-9]?)|(([A-Z-[QVX]][0-9][A-HJKPSTUW])|([A-Z-[QVX]][A-Z-[IJZ]][0-9][ABEHMNPRVWXY])))) [0-9][A-Z-[CIKMOV]]{2}) 

将其缩短为以下正则表达式(使用Perl/Ruby语法):

(GIR 0AA)|([A-PR-UWYZ](([0-9]([0-9A-HJKPSTUW])?)|([A-HK-Y][0-9]([0-9ABEHMNPRVWXY])?))\s?[0-9][ABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2})

它还在第一个和第二个块之间包含一个可选的空格。

在这个列表中添加一个更实用的正则表达式,允许用户输入一个空字符串:

^$|^(([gG][iI][rR] {0,}0[aA]{2})|((([a-pr-uwyzA-PR-UWYZ][a-hk-yA-HK-Y]?[0-9][0-9]?)|(([a-pr-uwyzA-PR-UWYZ][0-9][a-hjkstuwA-HJKSTUW])|([a-pr-uwyzA-PR-UWYZ][a-hk-yA-HK-Y][0-9][abehmnprv-yABEHMNPRV-Y]))) {0,1}[0-9][abd-hjlnp-uw-zABD-HJLNP-UW-Z]{2}))$

这个正则表达式允许大写字母和小写字母,中间有可选的空格

从软件开发人员的角度来看,这个正则表达式对于地址可能是可选的软件很有用。例如,如果用户不想提供他们的地址详细信息

通过经验测试和观察,以及https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postcodes_in_the_United_Kingdom#Validation的确认,以下是我的Python正则表达式版本,可以正确地解析和验证英国邮政编码:

UK_POSTCODE_REGEX = r ' (? P < postcode_area > [a - z] {1,2}) (? P <区> (?:[0 - 9]{1,2})| (?:[0 - 9][a - z])) (? P <部门> [0 - 9])(? P <邮编> [a - z]{2})”

这个正则表达式很简单,并且有捕获组。它不包括所有合法的英国邮政编码的验证,而只考虑字母与数字的位置。

下面是我在代码中如何使用它:

@dataclass
class UKPostcode:
    postcode_area: str
    district: str
    sector: int
    postcode: str

    # https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Postcodes_in_the_United_Kingdom#Validation
    # Original author of this regex: @jontsai
    # NOTE TO FUTURE DEVELOPER:
    # Verified through empirical testing and observation, as well as confirming with the Wiki article
    # If this regex fails to capture all valid UK postcodes, then I apologize, for I am only human.
    UK_POSTCODE_REGEX = r'(?P<postcode_area>[A-Z]{1,2})(?P<district>(?:[0-9]{1,2})|(?:[0-9][A-Z]))(?P<sector>[0-9])(?P<postcode>[A-Z]{2})'

    @classmethod
    def from_postcode(cls, postcode):
        """Parses a string into a UKPostcode

        Returns a UKPostcode or None
        """
        m = re.match(cls.UK_POSTCODE_REGEX, postcode.replace(' ', ''))

        if m:
            uk_postcode = UKPostcode(
                postcode_area=m.group('postcode_area'),
                district=m.group('district'),
                sector=m.group('sector'),
                postcode=m.group('postcode')
            )
        else:
            uk_postcode = None

        return uk_postcode


def parse_uk_postcode(postcode):
    """Wrapper for UKPostcode.from_postcode
    """
    uk_postcode = UKPostcode.from_postcode(postcode)
    return uk_postcode

下面是单元测试:
