Ruby正则表达式排除

Question

@message_to = 'bob@google.com'

@cleaned = @message_to.match(/^(.*)+@/)

@cleaned is returning bob@, where I want it to return just bob. Am I doing the regex right with ruby?

Thanks

Answer 1

No need much regular expression

>> @message_to = "bob@google.com"
=> "bob@google.com"
>> @message_to.split("@",2)
=> ["bob", "google.com"]
>> @message_to.split("@",2)[0] if @message_to["@"]
=> "bob"
>>

Answer 2

You want this:

@cleaned = @message_to.match(/^(.*)+@/)[1]

match returns a MatchData object and the string version of that is the entire match, the captured groups are available starting at index 1 when you treat the MatchData as an array .

I'd probably go with something more like this though:

@cleaned = @message_to.match(/^([^@]+)@/)[1]

Answer 3

An even shorter code than mu_is_too_short would be:

@cleaned = @message_to[/^([^@]+)@/, 1]

The String#[] method can take a regular expression.

Answer 4

有一个较短的解决方案：

@cleaned = @message_to[/[^@]+/]

Answer 5

The simplest RegEx I got to work in the IRB console is:

@message_to = 'bob@google.com'
@cleaned = @message_to.match(/(.+)@/)[1]

Also from this link you could try:

@cleaned = @message_to.match(/^(?<local_part>[\w\W]*?)@/)[:local_part]

Answer 6

The most obvious way to adjust your code is by using a forward positive assertion. Instead of saying "match bob@ " you're now saying "match bob , when followed by a @ "

@message_to = 'bob@google.com'

@cleaned = @message_to.match(/^(.*)+(?=@)/)

A further point about when to use and not to use regexes: yes, using a regex is a bit pointless in this case. But when you do use a regex, it's easier to add validation as well:

@cleaned = @message_to.match(/^(([-a-zA-Z0-9!#$%&'*+\/=?^_`{|}~]+.)*[-a-zA-Z0-9!#$%&'*+\/=?^_`{|}~]+(?=@)/)

(and yes, all those are valid in email-adresses)
