javascript从正则表达式匹配字符串中获取字符串

Question

I have a full string consisting of something like this [(data1.1)(data1.2)][(data2.1)(data2.1)]

Ive read you can do something smart with match function and regex. I want two arrays with the data loaded out of the parentheses.. How in earth do i do that? Please use my string as example.

Answer 1

I came up with this abomination:

var array = s.replace(/^\[|\]$/g,'').split('][').map(function(a){    
    return a.replace(/^\(|\)$/g,'').split(')(')
});

Also if you deliberately save or transmit data like this then you should really have a look at JSON or proper database design.

Answer 2

I wasn't entirely sure what you were after, but I'm assuming this

var what = '[(data1.1)(data1.2)][(data2.1)(data2.2)]',
    have = [],
    you = [],
    tried = /\[\(([^)]*)\)\(([^)]*)\)\]/g;
what.replace(tried, function (use, brain, forthis) {
    you.push((have.push(brain), forthis));
});
console.log(have, you);
// ["data1.1", "data2.1"] ["data1.2", "data2.2"]
