Let’s say I have the following string /product/976935/
How would I make a regex to return only the numbers between the second and third bar?
The amount of numbers varies so it’s no use just returning the numbers

If it’s always product, you can do:

/produto/(\d+)/

(regexplained)

If prefix changes depending on case use:

/(\w+)/(\d+)/

(regexplained)

Note that I also captured the prefix in this case.

Depending on the language it may be necessary to add escapes in the sliders. Swap / for \/.

  • didn’t know this one regexplained

  • I didn’t know him either... very well

  • But what about when the String is /product/976935/xxx5.html ? Would it take the 5 as well? I need all digits between the second and third bar occurrences

  • @Mauro no. would take only what is between the bars, following the pattern described.

If you want to remove any text, just use the following expression

"[^0-9]" ou "[^\\d]"

If it is /product/976935/ he will return 976935, but if it is /product/976935/1 he will return tbm the number 1 and would stay 9769351

In java I think it would look something like this:

 var soNumero = soNumero.replaceAll("[^0-9]","");

or

 var soNumero = soNumero.replaceAll("[^\\d]","");
