使用特殊的电子邮件正则表达式

Question

I have some emails in the form:

staticN123@sub1.mydomain.com
staticN456@sub2.mydomain.com
staticN789@sub3-sub.mydomain.com

The dynamic is the number after the (N or M or F) character, and the subDomain between the @ and mydomain.com

I want to make a regular expression that matches this form in a string, and if it's a match, get the number after the N character.

Answer 1

staticN([0-9]+)@.+\.mydomain\.com

instead of [0-9]+ you can also use \\d+ which is the same. the .+ after the @ could match too much. eventually you'd like to replace that with [^\\.]+ to exclude sub.sub domains.

update:

^staticN(\d+)@[a-z0-9_-]+\.mydomain\.com$

adding ^ and $ to match start and end of the search string to avoid false match to eg somthingwrong_staticN123@sub.mydomain.com.xyz

you can test this regexp here link to rubular

applying changes discussed in comments below:

^(?:.+<)?static[NMF](\d+)@[a-z0-9_-]+\.mydomain\.com>?$

code example to answer the question in one of the comments:

// input
String str = "reply <staticN123@sub1.mydomain.com";
// example 1
String nr0 = str.replaceAll( "^(?:.+<)?static[NMF](\\d+)@[a-z0-9_-]+\\.mydomain\\.com>?$", "$1" );
System.out.println( nr0 );
// example 2 (precompile regex is faster if it's used more than once afterwards)
Pattern p = Pattern.compile( "^(?:.+<)?static[NMF](\\d+)@[a-z0-9_-]+\\.mydomain\\.com>?$" );
Matcher m = p.matcher( str );
boolean b = m.matches();
String nr1 = m.group( 1 );  // m.group only available after m.matches was called
System.out.println( nr1 );
