Instance Method Details

#[](index) ⇒ String? #[](start, length) ⇒ Array<String, nil> #[](range) ⇒ Array<String, nil> #[](name) ⇒ String?

Retrieve zero, one or more matches by index or name.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

Overloads:

  • #[](index) ⇒ String?

    Access a particular match by index.

    Examples:

    m = RE2::Regexp.new('(\d+)').partial_match("bob 123")
    m[0] #=> "123"

    Parameters:

    • index (Integer)

      the index of the match to fetch

    Returns:

    • (String, nil)

      the specified match or nil if it isn't present

  • #[](start, length) ⇒ Array<String, nil>

    Access a range of matches by starting index and length.

    Examples:

    m = RE2::Regexp.new('(\d+)').partial_match("bob 123")
    m[0, 1] #=> ["123"]

    Parameters:

    • start (Integer)

      the index from which to start

    • length (Integer)

      the number of elements to fetch

    Returns:

    • (Array<String, nil>)

      the specified matches

  • #[](range) ⇒ Array<String, nil>

    Access a range of matches by index.

    Examples:

    m = RE2::Regexp.new('(\d+)').partial_match("bob 123")
    m[0..1] #=> ["123", "123"]

    Parameters:

    • range (Range)

      the range of match indexes to fetch

    Returns:

    • (Array<String, nil>)

      the specified matches

  • #[](name) ⇒ String?

    Access a particular match by name.

    Examples:

    m = RE2::Regexp.new('(?P<number>\d+)').partial_match("bob 123")
    m["number"] #=> "123"
    m[:number]  #=> "123"

    Parameters:

    • name (String, Symbol)

      the name of the match to fetch

    Returns:

    • (String, nil)

      the specific match or nil if it isn't present

Returns the array of submatches.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

#deconstruct_keys(keys) ⇒ Hash

Returns a hash of capturing group names to submatches for pattern matching.

As this is used by Ruby's pattern matching, it will return an empty hash if given more keys than there are capturing groups. Given keys will populate the hash in order but an invalid name will cause the hash to be immediately returned.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

Examples:

m = RE2::Regexp.new('(?P<numbers>\d+) (?P<letters>[a-zA-Z]+)').partial_match('123 abc')
m.deconstruct_keys(nil)                #=> {numbers: "123", letters: "abc"}
m.deconstruct_keys([:numbers])         #=> {numbers: "123"}
m.deconstruct_keys([:fruit])           #=> {}
m.deconstruct_keys([:letters, :fruit]) #=> {letters: "abc"}

pattern matching

case RE2::Regexp.new('(?P<numbers>\d+) (?P<letters>[a-zA-Z]+)').partial_match('123 abc')
in numbers:, letters:
  puts "Numbers: #{numbers}, letters: #{letters}"
else
  puts "Unrecognised match"
end

Parameters:

  • keys (Array<Symbol>, nil)

    an array of Symbol capturing group names or nil to return all names

Returns:

  • (Hash)

    a hash of capturing group names to submatches

#named_capturesHash #named_captures(symbolize_names:) ⇒ Hash

Returns a hash of capturing group names to matched strings.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

Overloads:

  • #named_capturesHash

    Returns a hash with string keys.

    Examples:

    m = RE2::Regexp.new('(?P<numbers>\d+) (?P<letters>[a-zA-Z]+)').partial_match('123 abc')

    • (Hash)

      a hash of capturing group names to matching strings

  • #named_captures(symbolize_names:) ⇒ Hash

    Returns a hash with string or symbol keys.

    Examples:

    m = RE2::Regexp.new('(?P<numbers>\d+) (?P<letters>[a-zA-Z]+)').partial_match('123 abc')

#namesArray<String>

Returns an array of names of named capturing groups. Names are returned in alphabetical order rather than definition order, as RE2 stores named groups internally in a sorted map.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

Examples:

m = RE2::Regexp.new('(?P<numbers>\d+) (?P<letters>[a-zA-Z]+)').partial_match('123 abc')
m.names #=> ["letters", "numbers"]

Returns:

  • (Array<String>)

#offset(n) ⇒ Array<Integer>?

Returns a two-element array containing the beginning and ending offsets of the nth match.

Examples:

m = RE2::Regexp.new('ob (\d+)').partial_match("bob 123")
m.offset(0) #=> [1, 7]
m.offset(1) #=> [4, 7]

Parameters:

  • n (Integer, String, Symbol)

    the name or number of the match

Returns:

  • (Array<Integer>, nil)

    a two-element array with the beginning and ending offsets of the match or nil if there is no such match

#post_matchString

Returns the portion of the original string after the match.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

Examples:

m = RE2::Regexp.new('(\d+)').partial_match("bob 123 456")
m.post_match #=> " 456"

Returns:

  • (String)

    the portion of the original string after the match

#values_at(*args) ⇒ Array<String, nil>

Returns an array of match values at the given indices or names.

Note RE2 only supports UTF-8 and ISO-8859-1 encoding so strings will be returned in UTF-8 by default or ISO-8859-1 if the :utf8 option for the Regexp is set to false (any other encoding's behaviour is undefined).

Examples:

m.values_at(1, :b)  #=> ["123", "456"]

Parameters:

  • indexes (Integer, String, Symbol)
