使用python pandas在列中将动态超链接替换为null

Question

One of the columns in my data frame contains some text with hyper links and I want to replace all the hyperlinks with null.

df_new["column_name"] = df_new["column_name"].replace(to_replace =r'https://example.com/xyz/pqr/*.html$', value = '', regex = True)

Eg: The hyper links will be of the following format:

https://example.com/xyz/pqr/xxxxx.html 
https://example.com/xyz/pqr/yyyyy.html
https://example.com/xyz/pqr/zzzzz.html

Answer 1

Use .+ for select all values with one or more repetitions (+), with \\. for escape . , because special regex character (any character):

df_new["column_name"]=df_new["column_name"].replace(r'https://example\.com/xyz/pqr/.+\.html$',
                                                      value = '', regex = True)

Answer 2

this should do

import re
df_new["column_name"] = df_new.column_name.apply(lambda x: re.sub(r"https:.+html",  value = '', x)
