I have been using the following regex, to check if it is a valid facebook url: /^(?:(?:http|https):\/\/)?(?:www.)?facebook.com\/(?:(?:\w)*#!\/)?(?:pages\/)?(?:[?\w\-]*\/)?(?:profile.php\?id=(?=\d.*))?([\w\-]*)?$/
The problem is that, this regex is old, and now some facebook url's has a . and ?fref=ufi in there url example: https://www.facebook.com/user.moreusername?fref=ufiHow can i fix so that this regex accept that kind of url?
I have been trying to add \/?(?:?fref=ufi.)?\/ Without any luck.
Only going off of what you have provided, I have found this to work:
^(?:(?:http|https):\/\/)?(?:www.)?facebook.com\/(?:(?:\w)*#!\/)?(?:pages\/)?(?:[?\w\-]*\/)?(?:profile.php\?id=(?=\d.*))?([\w\-\.]*)?(?:\?fref=ufi)?$
The difference is in:
([\w\-\.]*)? // added the \. for matching the . literally
(?:\?fref=ufi)?$ // this was appended to the end

This may not work for all scenarios as I only have your test case to work off of.

I have the following url
https://myurl/blogs/<blog-category>/<blog-article>
I've trying to create a regEx so i can thrigger a script only when i'm in an article.
i tried this among other tests but it didn't work and i'm not really the best guy building RegExs.
window.location.pathname.match(/\/blogs\/^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*$\/^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*$/
So in my understanding the first part of this regEx (\/blogs\/) is trying just to match a fixed string.
Then next parts just tries to match any kind of numeric,character and _.- combination (which is basically the potential strings that i can have there)
However this is not working at all.
My piece of script is looking like this
if(window.location.pathname.match(/\/blogs\/^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*$\/^[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*$/){
// A code implementation here
}
Note: One thing that i noticed when writing this is that if i remove everything and just try
window.location.pathname.match(/\/blogs\/)
It doesn't work either.
Can someone help me solve this? I will also appreciate any guide that can help me improve my RegEx skills.
Thanks!
Update: to have this working i had to separate my condition into two things to get it to work properly.
It ended up looking like this:
var path = window.location.pathname;
const regEx = /\/blogs\/[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*\/[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*/i;
if(path.match(regEx)){
// My code here
}
This should work:
\/blogs\/[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*\/[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*
the "^" symbol checks that it is the start of a string which is not the case for the url in question
I would suggest using https://regexr.com/ for testing your regex to remove any other possible issues from other code
var patt = /\/blogs\/[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*\/[a-zA-Z0-9_.-]*/i window.location.pathname.match(patt)
You can try using this
I am using the following regex for validating youtube video share url's.
var valid = /^(http\:\/\/)?(youtube\.com|youtu\.be)+$/;
alert(valid.test(url));
return false;
I want the regex to support the following URL formats:
http://youtu.be/cCnrX1w5luM
http://youtube/cCnrX1w5luM
www.youtube.com/cCnrX1w5luM
youtube/cCnrX1w5luM
youtu.be/cCnrX1w5luM
I tried different regex but I am not getting a suitable one for share links. Can anyone help me to solve this.
Here's a regex I use to match and capture the important bits of YouTube URLs with video codes:
^((?:https?:)?\/\/)?((?:www|m)\.)?((?:youtube(-nocookie)?\.com|youtu.be))(\/(?:[\w\-]+\?v=|embed\/|v\/)?)([\w\-]+)(\S+)?$

You're missing www in your regex
The second \. should optional if you want to match both youtu.be and youtube (but I didn't change this since just youtube isn't actually a valid domain - see note below)
+ in your regex allows for one or more of (youtube\.com|youtu\.be), not one or more wild-cards.
You need to use a . to indicate a wild-card, and + to indicate you want one or more of them.
Try:
^(https?\:\/\/)?(www\.youtube\.com|youtu\.be)\/.+$
Live demo.
If you want it to match URLs with or without the www., just make it optional:
^(https?\:\/\/)?((www\.)?youtube\.com|youtu\.be)\/.+$
Live demo.
Invalid alternatives:
If you want www.youtu.be/... to also match (at the time of writing, this doesn't appear to be a valid URL format), put the optional www. outside the brackets:
^(https?\:\/\/)?(www\.)?(youtube\.com|youtu\.be)\/.+$
youtube/cCnrX1w5luM (with or without http://) isn't a valid URL, but the question explicitly mentions that the regex should support that. To include this, replace youtu\.be with youtu\.?be in any regex above. Live demo.
I know I'm like 2 years late to the party, but I was needing to write something up anyway, and seems to fit every test case that I can throw at it. Should be able to reference the first match ($1) to get the ID. Matches the http, https, www and non-www, youtube.com, youtu.be, /watch? and /watch.php? on youtube.com (youtu.be does not use these), and it supports matching even when there are other variables in the URL string (?t= for time, ?list= for playlists, etc).
(?:https?:\/\/)?(?:youtu\.be\/|(?:www\.|m\.)?youtube\.com\/(?:watch|v|embed)(?:\.php)?(?:\?.*v=|\/))([a-zA-Z0-9\_-]+)
Format for YouTube videos has changed. This regex works for all cases:
^(http(s)??\:\/\/)?(www\.)?((youtube\.com\/watch\?v=)|(youtu.be\/))([a-zA-Z0-9\-_])+
Tests here.
Based on so many other regex; this is the best I have got:
((http(s)?:\/\/)?)(www\.)?((youtube\.com\/)|(youtu.be\/))[\S]+
Test:
http://regexr.com/3bga2
Try this:
((http://)?)(www\.)?((youtube\.com/)|(youtu\.be)|(youtube)).+
http://regexr.com?36o7a
I took one of the answers from here and added support for a few edge cases that I noticed in my dataset. This should work for pretty much any valid url.
^(?:https?:)?(?:\/\/)?(?:youtu\.be\/|(?:www\.|m\.)?youtube\.com\/(?:watch|v|embed)(?:\.php)?(?:\?.*v=|\/))([a-zA-Z0-9\_-]{7,15})(?:[\?&][a-zA-Z0-9\_-]+=[a-zA-Z0-9\_-]+)*(?:[&\/\#].*)?$
I tried this one and it works fine for me.
(?:http(?:s)?:\/\/)?(?:www\.)?(?:youtu\.be\/|youtube\.com\/(?:(?:watch)?\?(?:.*&)?v(?:i)?=|(?:embed|v|vi|user)\/))([^\?&\"'<> #]+)

I am trying to make a regex that checks if the url a user is posting, are valid.
I have created the following regex:
/https?\:\/steamcommunity\/.com\/profiles|id\/[a-zA-Z0-9]/
But that isn't working. Is there a regex master, here that can tell me what i am doing wrong?
The links i am trying to validate are looking like:
https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198009610232/
https://steamcommunity.com/id/rasmusvejby/
ANSWERE
/(?:https?:\/\/)?steamcommunity\.com\/(?:profiles|id)\/[a-zA-Z0-9]+/
Try this regex:
(?:https?:\/\/)?steamcommunity\.com\/(?:profiles|id)\/[a-zA-Z0-9]+
See this demo:
Regex Demo
The "g" modifier is just so you can see it test it in different strings, but you probably dont need it.
The accepted answer to this question will also match this url for example:
https://steamcommunity.com/profile/thisisimpossible
I am using the following regex to prevent non numeric characters when the id is prepended by profile/ rather than id/. Not necessarily prettier but it does the job.
^(?:https?:\/\/)?steamcommunity\.com\/(?:profiles\/[0-9]{17}|id\/[a-zA-Z0-9].*)$
I am working something to exclude some URL.
I want to expect all URLs with the pattern /google.com/, except for /login.google.com/
So:
account.google.com should pass
google.com should pass
google.com/abc should pass
http://google.com should pass
login.google.com should not pass
The code I am trying is
/^(?!login\.)google\.com/
/^(login)google\.com/
but neither is working. Am I missing something?
Assuming you're trying to match any google.com address except ones that begin with login., you need to just add a .* prior to the google, i.e.
/^(https?:\/\/)?(?!login\.)([\w-]+\.)?google\.com/
Update: Modified based on helpful comments. Not sure what the valid domain name character class is - took a guess at that as being [\w-]. See http://rubular.com/ if you want to play with it.
This regex should work for you:
^(?:https?://)?(?!login\.)(?:.+?\.)?google\.com(?:/.*|)$
Live Demo: http://www.rubular.com/r/z69WSKV9cM
Javascript syntax:
/^(?:https?:\/\/)?(?!login\.)(?:.+?\.)?google\.com(?:\/.*|)$/
Try this pattern to match the data listed in the question:
/^(account\.)?google\.com/
I have to find the first url in the text with a regular expression:
for example:
I love this website:http://www.youtube.com/music it's fantastic
or
[ es. http://www.youtube.com/music] text
I looked into this issue last year and developed a solution that you may want to look at - See: URL Linkification (HTTP/FTP) This link is a test page for the Javascript solution with many examples of difficult-to-linkify URLs.
My regex solution, written for both PHP and Javascript - is not simple (but neither is the problem as it turns out.) For more information I would recommend also reading:
The Problem With URLs by Jeff Atwood, and
An Improved Liberal, Accurate Regex Pattern for Matching URLs by John Gruber
The comments following Jeff's blog post are a must read if you want to do this right...
Note that this question gets asked a lot. Maybe do a search next time :)
You can't do this perfectly with a regular expression. You may be interested in this blog post. There is a bit more information on Regex Guru, but even those look very fragile. You will need to have additional checks outside of your regular expression to catch the edge cases.
Identifying URLs is tricky because they are often surrounded by punctuation marks and because users frequently do not use the full form of the URL. Many JavaScript functions exist for replacing URLs with hyperlinks, but I was unable to find one that works as well as the urlize filter in the Python-based web framework Django. I therefore ported Django's urlize function to JavaScript: https://github.com/ljosa/urlize.js
It actually would not pick up the URL in your example because there is a colon right before the URL. But if we modify the example a little:
urlize("I love this website: http://www.youtube.com/music it's fantastic", true, true)
=> 'I love this website: http://www.youtube.com/music it's fantastic"'
Note the second argument which, if true, inserts rel="nofollow" and the third argument which, if true, quotes characters that have special meaning in HTML.
This might work->
\b(([\w-]+://?|www[.])[^\s()<>]+(?:\([\w\d]+\)|([^[:punct:]\s]|/)))
Found it somewhere
Will find links ->
http://foo.com/blah_blah/
(Something like http://foo.com/blah_blah)
http://foo.com/blah_blah_(wikipedia)
Hope this works....
