使用mysql REGEXP_SUBSTR 在两个字符或字符串之间提取字符串

Question

I need help in extracting the following string. I have tried many solutions but this one is the closest. But still not what I require. Any help is appreciated.

Sample URL: 'https://mywebsite/path/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=123abc'

Required Result:

utm_source	utm_medium	gclid
google	cpc	123abc

The following example for gclid gives me gclid=123abc as a result, while I require to extract 123abc

SELECT l.url, REGEXP_SUBSTR(l.url, 'gclid=([^&]*)') as data
FROM mydatabase.mytable AS l
WHERE Date(l.registration_date) >= '2021-06-15'
AND REGEXP_SUBSTR(l.url, 'gclid=([^&]*)') is not null

I need to parse the other two fields also like utm_source and utm_medium.

Answer 1

SET @URL := 'https://mywebsite/path/?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&gclid=12345';

 SELECT SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(@URL, 'utm_source=', -1), '&', 1) utm_source, SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(@URL, 'utm_medium=', -1), '&', 1) utm_medium, SUBSTRING_INDEX(SUBSTRING_INDEX(@URL, 'gclid=', -1), '&', 1) gclid; 

utm_source	utm_medium	gclid
google	cpc	12345

Answer 2

You can use lookbehinds here to exclude the static text from your matches:

REGEXP_SUBSTR(l.url, '(?<=[?&]gclid=)[^&#]+')
REGEXP_SUBSTR(l.url, '(?<=[?&]utm_source=)[^&#]+')
REGEXP_SUBSTR(l.url, '(?<=[?&]utm_medium=)[^&#]+') 

See a sample regex demo .

Details :

• (?<=[?&]gclid=) - a positive lookbehind that matches a location that is immediately preceded with ? or & (this makes sure we only match the full query param key) and then gclid=
• [^&#]+ - one or more chars other than & and # (consumed and returned as a match value).
