I use following regex pattern in PHP (Symfony framework) to match URL
^/api/v1/account/verify
^/api/v1/account/register
^/api/v1/account/forgot-password
I now have a following URL
/api/v1/payment/{token}/success/jJBePenWo0eN
{token} will consist of dynamic values, but string "jJBePenWo0eN" will always be static how do I make a match that will satisfy the above URL?
Update: 1
I am looking for something like this
^/api/v1/payment/[a-zA-Z0-9]/success/jJBePenWo0eN
However this is not working
You can make a regex like below:
'/^\/api\/v1\/payment\/(.+?)\/success\/jJBePenWo0eN$/'
where we match the string from start to end(notice the ^ and $ symbols) and match the {token} value greedily in (.+?) group.
Snippet:
<?php
if(preg_match('/^\/api\/v1\/payment\/(.+?)\/success\/jJBePenWo0eN$/','/api/v1/payment/{token}/success/jJBePenWo0eN',$matches) === 1){
print_r($matches);
}

I'm using the following pattern to match URLs in a string:
$pattern = '%\b(([\w-]+://?|www[.])[^\s()<>]+(?:\([\w\d]+\)|([^[:punct:]\s]|/)))%s';
This works pretty well. However, the match fails with URLs like this:
https://twitter.com/search/from:username(exclude:replies)min_faves:20
It seems to stop at the parentheses. Any ideas on how I could modify the pattern to match this type of URL? Thanks in advance!
Take the parentheses of of your negated character class and it works.
[^\s<>]+

$pattern = '%\b(([\w-]+://?|www[.])[^\s<>]+(?:\([\w\d]+\)|([^[:punct:]\s]|/)))%s';
I need a little help refining this regex to be able to identify a JWT token within an URL string using PHP. This matches a token fine but not if I append another URI segment.
Regex so far:
/[a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+?\.[a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+?\.([a-zA-Z0-9\-_]+)$/
URL this works for:
http://not.website.com/**eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiYWRtaW4iOnRydWV9.TJVA95OrM7E2cBab30RMHrHDcEfxjoYZgeFONFh7HgQ**
URL it doesn't work for (note additional segments on the end)
http://not.website.com/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiYWRtaW4iOnRydWV9.TJVA95OrM7E2cBab30RMHrHDcEfxjoYZgeFONFh7HgQ/additional/segments
The expected match should look like:
http://not.website.com/**eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiYWRtaW4iOnRydWV9.TJVA95OrM7E2cBab30RMHrHDcEfxjoYZgeFONFh7HgQ**/additional/segments
Depending on where these URL strings occur (in a text or standalone), you could simply do:
^https?://.+?/(?P<token>[^/\n\r]+)
In PHP, this would be:
$string = 'http://not.website.com/eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiYWRtaW4iOnRydWV9.TJVA95OrM7E2cBab30RMHrHDcEfxjoYZgeFONFh7HgQ/additional/segments';
$regex = '~ # delimiter
^https?://.+?/ # match http:// or https:// + anything up to a / lazily
(?P<token>[^/\n\r]+) # capture everything that is not a / or newline (for this demo) to the group "token"
~x'; # delimiter
preg_match($regex, $string, $match);
echo $match["token"]; # access your token in the $match array
// output: eyJhbGciOiJIUzI1NiIsInR5cCI6IkpXVCJ9.eyJzdWIiOiIxMjM0NTY3ODkwIiwibmFtZSI6IkpvaG4gRG9lIiwiYWRtaW4iOnRydWV9.TJVA95OrM7E2cBab30RMHrHDcEfxjoYZgeFONFh7HgQ

You can ammend your regex in this manner
[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+?.[a-zA-Z0-9-_]+?.([a-zA-Z0-9-_]+)[/a-zA-Z0-9-_]+?$
Add
[/a-zA-Z0-9-_]*? before $
(optional:(*?) so extra forward slashes and characters will be covered in above pattern)
/(http:\/\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.]+)(\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-_\.]+)(\/[a-zA-Z0-9\-_]*)*$/
Your token will be extracted from second group

I am working on SEO thing in project to match best URL from possible url's, so
i am trying to match request url using preg_match() function from url pattern
can anyone please help me create regular expression to match only specific urls from all urls, i am newbie in Regular expression, please see my stuff
following 3 urls
1). http://domain.com/pressrelease/index/1
2). http://domain.com/pressrelease/123
3). http://domain.com/pressrelease/blah
i want to match 2,3 urls, urls have not contain of index/(:num) after pressrelease
i create this regular expression but it's does not working
(\/pressrelease\/)+((?!index).)*$
Since you're passing the regex to preg_match, the below regex would be fine.
\/pressrelease\/(?!index\/\d+\b).*
DEMO
(?!index\/\d+\b) negative lookahead assertion which asserts that the match /pressrelease/ won't be followed by the string which is in the format like index/number.
It actually works, but it doesn't match the first part of the URL.
^.*\/pressrelease\/(?!index).*$
Take a look at this demo on Rubular to check it.
I'm not very good at regular expressions at all.
I've been using a lot of framework code to date, but I'm unable to find one that is able to match a URL like http://www.example.com/etcetc, but it is also is able to catch something like www.example.com/etcetc and example.com/etcetc.
For matching all kinds of URLs, the following code should work:
<?php
$regex = "((https?|ftp)://)?"; // SCHEME
$regex .= "([a-z0-9+!*(),;?&=$_.-]+(:[a-z0-9+!*(),;?&=$_.-]+)?#)?"; // User and Pass
$regex .= "([a-z0-9\-\.]*)\.(([a-z]{2,4})|([0-9]{1,3}\.([0-9]{1,3})\.([0-9]{1,3})))"; // Host or IP address
$regex .= "(:[0-9]{2,5})?"; // Port
$regex .= "(/([a-z0-9+$_%-]\.?)+)*/?"; // Path
$regex .= "(\?[a-z+&\$_.-][a-z0-9;:#&%=+/$_.-]*)?"; // GET Query
$regex .= "(#[a-z_.-][a-z0-9+$%_.-]*)?"; // Anchor
?>
Then, the correct way to check against the regex is as follows:
<?php
if(preg_match("~^$regex$~i", 'www.example.com/etcetc', $m))
var_dump($m);
if(preg_match("~^$regex$~i", 'http://www.example.com/etcetc', $m))
var_dump($m);
?>

http://stackoverflow.com/questions/6427530/regular-expression-pattern-to-match-url-with-or-without-http-www/
Every valid Internet URL has at least one dot, so the above pattern will simply try to find any at least two strings chained by a dot and has valid characters that URL may have.
Try this:
/^http:\/\/|(www\.)?[a-z0-9]+([\-\.]{1}[a-z0-9]+)*\.[a-z]{2,5}(:[0-9]{1,5})?(\/.*)?$/
It works exactly like the people want.
It takes with or with out http://, https://, and www.
You can use a question mark after a regular expression to make it conditional so you would want to use:
http:\/\/(www\.)?
That will match anything that has either http://www. or http:// (with no www.)
You could just use a replace method to remove the above, thus getting you the domain. It depends on what you need the domain for.
Try something like this:
.*([\w-]+\.)+[a-z]{2,5}(/[\w-]+)*
Use:
/(https?://)?((?:(\w+-)*\w+)\.)+(?:[a-z]{2})(\/?\w?-?=?_?\??&?)+[\.]?([a-z0-9\?=&_\-%#])?/g
It matches something.com, http(s):// or www. It does not match other [something]:// URLs though, but for my purpose that's not necessary.
The regex matches e.g.:
http://foo.co.uk/
www.regex.com/foo.html?q=bar$some=thi-ng,regex
regex.foo.com/blog
You can try this:
r"(http[s]:\/\/)?([\w-]+\.)+([a-z]{2,5})(\/+\w+)? "
Selection:
may be start with http:// or https:// (optional)
anything (word) end with dot (.)
followed by 2 to 5 character [a-z]
followed by "/[anything]" (optional)
followed by space
Try this
$url_reg = /(ftp|https?):\/\/(\w+:?\w*#)?(\S+)(:[0-9]+)?(\/([\w#!:.?+=&%#!\/-])?)?/;
I have been using the following, which works for all my test cases, as well as fixes any issues where it would trigger at the end of a sentence preceded by a full-stop (end.), or where there were single character initials, such as 'C.C. Plumbing'.
The following regex contains multiple {2,}s, which means two or more matches of the previous pattern.
((http|https)\:\/\/)?[a-zA-Z0-9\.\/\?\:#\-_=#]{2,}\.([a-zA-Z0-9\&\.\/\?\:#\-_=#]){2,}
Matches URLs such as, but not limited to:
https://example.com
http://example.com
example.com
example.com/test
example.com?value=test
Does not match non-URLs such as, but not limited to:
C.C Plumber
A full-stop at the end of a sentence.
Single characters such as a.b or x.y
Please note: Due to the above, this will not match any single character URLs, such as: a.co, but it will match if it is preceded by a URL scheme, such as: http://a.co.

// Match all
preg_match_all($re, $blob, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER, 0);
// Print the entire match result
