使用正则表达式捕获用逗号分隔的字符串中带引号的字符串

Question

I am trying to match all the string withing double quotes which is separated by comma For eg in the sample string

"COUNT","count(1)","crmuser.accounts"

i want to match

COUNT
count(1)
crmuser.accounts

Regular expression (?<=").*?(?=") is matching the comma seperator as well which is not required. How can i exclude commas in the string.

Answer 1

There are a few different workarounds you could use for this; for example using capture groups as suggested in the comments by The fourth bird. But for me personally, I try to avoid using .* .

For this type of example, I would honestly recommend just using a character set of valid characters you will use and looking for more than one character (2 or more) because you will effectively skip lone separators such as a single , . You can even add a comma to that character set and it will still work.

(?<=")[\w\(\)\.,]{2,}(?=")

Answer 2

For this format of string you could just use :

var str = '"COUNT","count(1)","crmuser.accounts"' ;
var separated = str.split('","') ;
for(var i in separated){
     i.replace('"','') ;
} ;
