C++ getline - 使用正则表达式提取子字符串

Question

我有一个包含这样内容的文件 -

Random text
+-------------------+------+-------+-----------+-------+
|     Data          |   A  |   B   |     C     |   D   |
+-------------------+------+-------+-----------+-------+
|   Data 1          | 1403 |     0 |      2520 | 55.67 |
|   Data 2          | 1365 |     2 |      2520 | 54.17 |
|   Data 3          |    1 |     3 |      1234 | 43.12 |
Some more random text

我想提取行Data 1 D列的值，即我想从上面的示例中提取值55.67 。 我正在使用getline逐行解析此文件 -

while(getline(inputFile1,line)) {
    if(line.find("|  Data 1") != string::npos) {
        subString = //extract the desired value
}

如何从行中提取所需的子字符串。 有没有办法使用 boost::regex 来提取这个子字符串？

Answer 1

虽然regex可能有它的用途，但它可能对此有点过分。

引入trim功能和：

char delim;
std::string line, data;
int a, b, c;
double d;

while(std::getline(inputFile1, line)) {
    std::istringstream is(line);
    if( std::getline(is >> delim, data, '|') >>
        a >> delim >> b >> delim >> c >> delim >> d >> delim) 
    {
        trim(data);

        if(data == "Data 1") {
            std::cout << a << ' ' << b << ' ' << c << ' ' << d << '\n';
        }
    }
}

是的，可以很容易地使用正则表达式提取您的子字符串。 无需使用boost，您也可以使用现有的C++ regex 库。

由此产生的程序非常简单。

我们在一个简单的 for 循环中读取源文件的所有行。 然后我们使用std::regex_match将刚刚读取的行与我们的正则表达式相匹配。 如果我们找到了匹配项，那么结果将在std::smatch sm，组 1 中。

并且因为我们将设计用于查找双精度值的正则表达式，所以我们将得到我们所需要的，没有任何额外的空格。

我们可以将其转换为 double 并在屏幕上显示结果。 并且因为我们定义了正则表达式来查找双std::stod ，所以我们可以确定std::stod会起作用。

生成的程序相当简单易懂：

#include <iostream>
#include <string>
#include <sstream>
#include <regex>

// Please note. For std::getline, it does not matter, if we read from a
// std::istringstream or a std::ifstream. Both are std::istream's. And because
// we do not have files here on SO, we will use an istringstream as data source.
// If you want to read from a file later, simply create an std::ifstream inputFile1

// Source File with all data
std::istringstream inputFile1{ R"(

|     Data          |   A  |   B   |     C     |   D   |
+-------------------+------+-------+-----------+-------+
|   Data 1          | 1403 |     0 |      2520 | 55.67 |
|   Data 2          | 1365 |     2 |      2520 | 54.17 |
|   Data 3          |    1 |     3 |      1234 | 43.12 |

};

// Regex for finding the desired data
const std::regex re(R"(\|\s+Data 1\s+\|.*?\|.*?\|.*?\|\s*([-+]?[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+)\s*\|)");

int main() {

    // The result will be in here
    std::smatch sm;

    // Read all lines of the source file
    for (std::string line{}; std::getline(inputFile1, line);) {

        // If we found our matching string
        if (std::regex_match(line, sm, re)) {

            // Then extract the column D info
            double data1D = std::stod(sm[1]);

            // And show it to the user.
            std::cout << data1D << "\n";
        }
    }
}

对于大多数人来说，棘手的部分是如何定义正则表达式。 有像Online regex tester 和 debugger这样的页面。 还有正则表达式的细分和可以理解的解释。

对于我们的正则表达式

\|\s+Data 1\s+\|.*?\|.*?\|.*?\|\s*([-+]?[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+)\s*\|

我们得到以下解释：

\|  
    matches the character | literally (case sensitive)
\s+
    matches any whitespace character (equal to [\r\n\t\f\v ])
    + Quantifier — Matches between one and unlimited times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed (greedy)
    Data 1 matches the characters Data 1 literally (case sensitive)
\s+
    matches any whitespace character (equal to [\r\n\t\f\v ])
    + Quantifier — Matches between one and unlimited times, as many times as possible, giving back as needed (greedy)
\| 
    matches the character | literally (case sensitive)
.*?
    matches any character (except for line terminators)
    *? Quantifier — Matches between zero and unlimited times, as few times as possible, expanding as needed (lazy)
\| 
    matches the character | literally (case sensitive)
.*?
    matches any character (except for line terminators)
    *? Quantifier — Matches between zero and unlimited times, as few times as possible, expanding as needed (lazy)
\| 
    matches the character | literally (case sensitive)
.*?
    matches any character (except for line terminators)
\| 
    matches the character | literally (case sensitive)
\s*
    matches any whitespace character (equal to [\r\n\t\f\v ])

1st Capturing Group ([-+]?[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+)

\s*
    matches any whitespace character (equal to [\r\n\t\f\v ])
\| 
    matches the character | literally (case sensitive)

顺便说一句，更安全（更安全匹配）的正则表达式是：

\|\s+Data 1\s+\|\s*?\d+\s*?\|\s*?\d+\s*?\|\s*?\d+\s*?\|\s*([-+]?[0-9]*\.?[0-9]+)\s*\|
