This article will introduce you to the regular expressions of PHP. It has certain reference value. Friends in need can refer to it. I hope it will be helpful to you.

Introduction
Regular expressions, what everyone should do during development It is often used. Nowadays, many development languages have regular expression applications, such as javascript, java, .net, php, etc. Today I will talk to you about my understanding of regular expressions. Please tell me if there is any inappropriateness. Advice!
Need-to-know terms - How much do you know about the following terms?

Δ Character field
Δ Modifier
Δ Qualifier
Δ Caret
Δ Wildcard (forward pre-check, reverse pre-check)
Δ Back reference
Δ Lazy matching
Δ Comment
Δ Zero character width
Positioning
When do we use What about regular expressions? It is not enough to use regular expressions for all character operations. PHP uses regular expressions in some aspects, which actually affects efficiency. When we encounter the parsing of complex text data, using regular expressions is a better choice.
Advantages
Regular expressions can improve work efficiency when dealing with complex character operations, and also save you to a certain extent The amount of code is .
Disadvantages
When we use regular expressions, complex regular expressions will increase the complexity of the code, which is very frustrating. Difficult to understand. So sometimes we need to add comments inside regular expressions.
General mode
¤ Delimiter, usually use "/" as the delimiter to start and end, you can also use "# ".
When should you use "#"? Generally, it is when there are many "/" characters in your string, because such characters need to be escaped during regular expression, such as uri .
The code using the "/" delimiter is as follows.
$regex = '/^http:\/\/([\w.]+)\/([\w]+)\/([\w]+)\.html$/i';
$str = 'http://www.youku.com/show_page/id_ABCDEFG.html';
$matches = array();
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";$matches[0] in preg_match will contain the string matching the entire pattern.
The code using the "#" delimiter is as follows. At this time, does not escape "/" !
$regex = '#^http://([\w.]+)/([\w]+)/([\w]+)\.html$#i';
$str = 'http://www.youku.com/show_page/id_ABCDEFG.html';
$matches = array();
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";¤ Modifier: used to change the regular expression style behavior.
What we see ('/^http:\/\/([\w.] )\/([\w] )\/([\w] )\.html/ i') The last "i" in it is the modifier, which means ignoring case. Another one we often use is "x" which means ignoring spaces.
Contribution code:
$regex = '/HELLO/';
$str = 'hello word';
$matches = array();
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
echo 'No i:Valid Successful!',"\n";
}
if(preg_match($regex.'i', $str, $matches)){
echo 'YES i:Valid Successful!',"\n";
} ¤ Character field: [\w] The part expanded with square brackets is the character field.
¤ Qualifier: Such as [\w]{3,5} or [\w]* or [\w] The symbols following [\w] represent qualifiers. The specific meaning is now introduced.
{3,5} represents 3 to 5 characters. {3,} exceeds 3 characters, {,5} has up to 5 characters, and {3} has three characters.
* Indicates 0 to multiple
Represents 1 to multiple.
¤ Caret
^:
——"Reverse selection"
can be placed before the expression to start with the current character. (/^n/i, means starting with n).
Note that we often call "\" the "escape character". Used to escape some special symbols, such as ".", "/"
Wildcards (lookarounds): Assert the presence or absence of certain characters in certain strings!
验证零字符代码
$regex = '/HE(?=L)LO/i';
$str = 'HELLO';
$matches = array();
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";打印不出结果！
$regex = '/HE(?=L)LLO/i';
$str = 'HELLO';
$matches = array();
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";能打印出结果!
说明:(?=L)意思是HE后面紧跟一个L字符。但是(?=L)本身不占字符，要与(L)区分，（L）本身占一个字符。
捕获数据
没有指明类型而进行的分组,将会被获取,供以后使用。
> 指明类型指的是通配符。所以只有圆括号起始位置没有问号的才能被捕捉。
> 在同一个表达式内的引用叫做反向引用。
> 调用格式: \编号(如\1)。
$regex = '/^(Chuanshanjia)[\w\s!]+\1$/';
$str = 'Chuanshanjia thank Chuanshanjia';
$matches = array();
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";> 避免捕获数据
格式:(?:pattern)
优点:将使有效反向引用数量保持在最小，代码更加、清楚。
>命名捕获组
格式:(?P5e64257b369329e4ba4d555318eb64af) 调用方式 (?P=组名)
$regex = '/(?P<author>chuanshanjia)[\s]Is[\s](?P=author)/i';
$str = 'author:chuanshanjia Is chuanshanjia';
$matches = array();
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";运行结果
惰性匹配(记住：会进行两部操作,请看下面的原理部分)
格式:限定符?
原理:"?"：如果前面有限定符，会使用最小的数据。如“*”会取0个，而“+”会取1个，如过是{3,5}会取3个。
先看下面的两个代码:
代码1.
<?php
$regex = '/heL*/i';
$str = 'heLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL';
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";结果1.
代码2
<?php
$regex = '/heL*?/i';
$str = 'heLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL';
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";结果2
代码3,使用“+”
<?php
$regex = '/heL+?/i';
$str = 'heLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL';
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";结果3
代码4,使用{3,5}
<?php
$regex = '/heL{3,10}?/i';
$str = 'heLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL';
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";结果4
正则表达式的注释
格式:(?# 注释内容)
用途:主要用于复杂的注释
贡献代码:是一个用于连接MYSQL数据库的正则表达式
$regex = '/
^host=(?<!\.)([\d.]+)(?!\.) (?#主机地址)
\|
([\w!@#$%^&*()_+\-]+) (?#用户名)
\|
([\w!@#$%^&*()_+\-]+) (?#密码)
(?!\|)$/ix';
$str = 'host=192.168.10.221|root|123456';
$matches = array();
if(preg_match($regex, $str, $matches)){
var_dump($matches);
}
echo "\n";特殊字符
| 特殊字符 | 解释 |
| * | 0到多次 |
| + | 1到多次还可以写成{1,} |
| ? | 0或1次 |
| . | 匹配除换行符外的所有单个的字符 |
| \w | [a-zA-Z0-9_] |
| \s | 空白字符(空格，换行符，回车符）[\t\n\r] |
| \d | [0-9] |
案例汇总
1、PHP中文匹配
<?php
$str = "PHP编程";
if (preg_match("/([0-9a-zA-Z\x{4e00}-\x{9fa5}]+)/u",$str, $matches)) {
var_dump($matches);
echo "\n";
}
