Package syntax parses regular expressions into parse trees and compiles
parse trees into programs. Most clients of regular expressions will use the
facilities of package regexp (such as Compile and Match) instead of this package.
Syntax
The regular expression syntax understood by this package when parsing with the Perl flag is as follows.
Parts of the syntax can be disabled by passing alternate flags to Parse.
Single characters:
. any character, possibly including newline (flag s=true)
[xyz] character class
[^xyz] negated character class
\d Perl character class
\D negated Perl character class
[:alpha:] ASCII character class
[:^alpha:] negated ASCII character class
\pN Unicode character class (one-letter name)
\p{Greek} Unicode character class
\PN negated Unicode character class (one-letter name)
\P{Greek} negated Unicode character class
Composites:
xy x followed by y
x|y x or y (prefer x)
Repetitions:
x* zero or more x, prefer more
x+ one or more x, prefer more
x? zero or one x, prefer one
x{n,m} n or n+1 or ... or m x, prefer more
x{n,} n or more x, prefer more
x{n} exactly n x
x*? zero or more x, prefer fewer
x+? one or more x, prefer fewer
x?? zero or one x, prefer zero
x{n,m}? n or n+1 or ... or m x, prefer fewer
x{n,}? n or more x, prefer fewer
x{n}? exactly n x
Grouping:
(re) numbered capturing group
(?P<name>re) named & numbered capturing group
(?:re) non-capturing group
(?flags) set flags within current group; non-capturing
(?flags:re) set flags during re; non-capturing
Flag syntax is xyz (set) or -xyz (clear) or xy-z (set xy, clear z). The flags are:
i case-insensitive (default false)
m multi-line mode: ^ and $ match begin/end line in addition to begin/end text (default false)
s let . match \n (default false)
U ungreedy: swap meaning of x* and x*?, x+ and x+?, etc (default false)
Empty strings:
^ at beginning of text or line (flag m=true)
$ at end of text (like \z not \Z) or line (flag m=true)
\A at beginning of text
\b at word boundary (\w on one side and \W, \A, or \z on the other)
\B not a word boundary
\z at end of text
Escape sequences:
\a bell (== \007)
\f form feed (== \014)
\t horizontal tab (== \011)
\n newline (== \012)
\r carriage return (== \015)
\v vertical tab character (== \013)
\* literal *, for any punctuation character *
\123 octal character code (up to three digits)
\x7F hex character code (exactly two digits)
\x{10FFFF} hex character code
\Q...\E literal text ... even if ... has punctuation
Character class elements:
x single character
A-Z character range (inclusive)
\d Perl character class
[:foo:] ASCII character class foo
\p{Foo} Unicode character class Foo
\pF Unicode character class F (one-letter name)
Named character classes as character class elements:
[\d] digits (== \d)
[^\d] not digits (== \D)
[\D] not digits (== \D)
[^\D] not not digits (== \d)
[[:name:]] named ASCII class inside character class (== [:name:])
[^[:name:]] named ASCII class inside negated character class (== [:^name:])
[\p{Name}] named Unicode property inside character class (== \p{Name})
[^\p{Name}] named Unicode property inside negated character class (== \P{Name})
Perl character classes:
\d digits (== [0-9])
\D not digits (== [^0-9])
\s whitespace (== [\t\n\f\r ])
\S not whitespace (== [^\t\n\f\r ])
\w word characters (== [0-9A-Za-z_])
\W not word characters (== [^0-9A-Za-z_])
ASCII character classes:
[:alnum:] alphanumeric (== [0-9A-Za-z])
[:alpha:] alphabetic (== [A-Za-z])
[:ascii:] ASCII (== [\x00-\x7F])
[:blank:] blank (== [\t ])
[:cntrl:] control (== [\x00-\x1F\x7F])
[:digit:] digits (== [0-9])
[:graph:] graphical (== [!-~] == [A-Za-z0-9!"#$%&'()*+,\-./:;<=>?@[\\\]^_`{|}~])
[:lower:] lower case (== [a-z])
[:print:] printable (== [ -~] == [ [:graph:]])
[:punct:] punctuation (== [!-/:-@[-`{-~])
[:space:] whitespace (== [\t\n\v\f\r ])
[:upper:] upper case (== [A-Z])
[:word:] word characters (== [0-9A-Za-z_])
[:xdigit:] hex digit (== [0-9A-Fa-f])
