正则表达式获取两个字符串之间的字符串

Question

Anyone please help in getting the regex to get the string between two strings.

Full string:

image001.jpg (1.69 KB)SpinTel - 372464.pdf (270.90 KB)SpinTel - 372464.xlsm (113.08 KB)

Output expected: SpinTel - 372464.pdf & SpinTel - 372464.xlsm

I tried the expression:

((?i)Spintel)(.*)(.pdf)

and got the one output successfully,

but when I changed the expression to

((?i)Spintel)(.*)(.xlsm)

I am getting the output as SpinTel - 372464.pdf (270.90 KB)SpinTel - 372464.xlsm . My expected output in this is SpinTel - 372464.xlsm .

Please help.

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

To get a match only:

\bSpinTel\b.*?\.(?:pdf|xlsm)\b

• \bSpinTel\b Match SpinTel between word boundaries to prevent a partial match
• .*? Match as least as possible chars
• \.(?:pdf|xlsm)\b match a dot and either pfd or xlsm followed by a word boundary

See a regex demo

If it should be followed by parenthesis, you can use a capture group for the SpinTel part, and match the parenthesis after it.

(\bSpinTel\b.*?\.(?:pdf|xlsm)\s+)\([^()]+\)

See another regex demo

Answer 2

To get matches and be prepared for other file extensions.

((?i)Spintel - \d*.\w*)
