两个字符串python之间的正则表达式匹配

Question

I am trying to match all ocurrences between two [Term] 's or a [Term] and a [Typedef] in a file cointaining something like this:

remark: Includes Ontology(OntologyID(OntologyIRI(<http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go/never_in_taxon.owl>))) [Axioms: 18 Logical Axioms: 0]
ontology: go

[Term]
id: GO:0000001
name: mitochondrion inheritance
namespace: biological_process
def: "The distribution of mitochondria, including the mitochondrial genome, into daughter cells after mitosis or meiosis, mediated by interactions between mitochondria and the cytoskeleton." [GOC:mcc, PMID:10873824, PMID:11389764]
synonym: "mitochondrial inheritance" EXACT []
is_a: GO:0048308 ! organelle inheritance
is_a: GO:0048311 ! mitochondrion distribution

[Term]
id: GO:0000002
name: mitochondrial genome maintenance
namespace: biological_process
def: "The maintenance of the structure and integrity of the mitochondrial genome; includes replication and segregation of the mitochondrial chromosome." [GOC:ai, GOC:vw]
is_a: GO:0007005 ! mitochondrion organization

[Term]
id: GO:0000011
name: vacuole inheritance
namespace: biological_process
def: "The distribution of vacuoles into daughter cells after mitosis or meiosis, mediated by interactions between vacuoles and the cytoskeleton." [GOC:mcc, PMID:10873824, PMID:14616069]
is_a: GO:0007033 ! vacuole organization
is_a: GO:0048308 ! organelle inheritance

[Typedef]
id: positively_regulates
name: positively regulates
namespace: external
xref: RO:0002213
holds_over_chain: negatively_regulates negatively_regulates
is_a: regulates ! regulates
transitive_over: part_of ! part of

[Typedef]
id: regulates
name: regulates
namespace: external
xref: RO:0002211
is_transitive: true
transitive_over: part_of ! part of

With: (?=\\[Term\\]\\s)[\\s\\S]*(?=\\s\\s\\[Term\\]\\s) I'm only matching between the first [Term] and the penultimate.

Answer 1

To match between the two, you can try this:

import re
s = "[Term] id: GO:0000001 name: mitochondrion inheritance namespace: biological_process def: "The distribution of mitochondria, including the mitochondrial genome, into daughter cells after mitosis or meiosis, mediated by interactions between mitochondria and the cytoskeleton." [GOC:mcc, PMID:10873824, PMID:11389764] synonym: "mitochondrial inheritance" EXACT [] is_a: GO:0048308 ! organelle inheritance is_a: GO:0048311 ! mitochondrion distribution" #etc
the_data = re.findall("\[Term\](.*?)\n\s\[Term\]|\[Term\](.*?)\n\s\[Typedef\]", s)

Final Output:

[(' id: GO:0000001 name: mitochondrion inheritance namespace: biological_process def: "The distribution of mitochondria, including the mitochondrial genome, into daughter cells after mitosis or meiosis, mediated by interactions between mitochondria and the cytoskeleton." [GOC:mcc, PMID:10873824, PMID:11389764] synonym: "mitochondrial inheritance" EXACT [] is_a: GO:0048308 ! organelle inheritance is_a: GO:0048311 ! mitochondrion distribution', ''), ('', ' id: GO:0000011 name: vacuole inheritance namespace: biological_process def: "The distribution of vacuoles into daughter cells after mitosis or meiosis, mediated by interactions between vacuoles and the cytoskeleton." [GOC:mcc, PMID:10873824, PMID:14616069] is_a: GO:0007033 ! vacuole organization is_a: GO:0048308 ! organelle inheritance')]

Answer 2

You may use

r'(?m)^\[Term].*(?:\r?\n(?!\[(?:Typedef|Term)]).*)*'

See the regex demo

Details

• (?m) - multiline modifier
• ^ - start of a line
• \\[Term] - a [Term] substring
• .* - rest of the current line
• (?:\\r?\\n(?!\\[(?:Typedef|Term)]).*)* - 0 or more occurrences of:
  • \\r?\\n(?!\\[(?:Typedef|Term)]) - a line break (CRLF or LF) not followed with a [Typedef] or [Term] substring
  • .* - rest of the current line

Python code :

import re
s = """remark: Includes Ontology(OntologyID(OntologyIRI(<http://purl.obolibrary.org/obo/go/never_in_taxon.owl>))) [Axioms: 18 Logical Axioms: 0]
ontology: go

rx = r'(?m)^\[Term].*(?:\r?\n(?!\[(?:Typedef|Term)]).*)*'
cnt=0
for m in re.findall(rx, s):
    print(m)
    print('-------------- Next match ---------------')
    cnt = cnt + 1

print("Number of mathes: {}".format(cnt))
