In R Regex that ignores some punctuation at the end of a URL string -

-

is possible use regex function ignores punctuation (not "/'s") @ end of url strings (i.e. punctuation @ end of url string followed space) when extracted? when extracting urls, i'm getting periods, parenthesizes, question marks , exclamation points @ end of strings extract example:

findurl <- function(x){   m <- gregexpr("http[^[:space:]]+", x, perl=true)   w <- unlist(regmatches(x,m))   op <- paste(w,collapse=" ")   return(op) }  x <- "find out more @ http://bit.ly/ss/vuer). check out here http://bit.ly/14pwinr)? http://bit.ly/108vjom! now!"   findurl(x)  [1] http://bit.ly/ss/vuer).http://bit.ly/14pwinr)? http://bit.ly/108vjom!

and

findurl2 <- function(x){   m <- gregexpr("www[^[:space:]]+", x, perl=true)   w <- unlist(regmatches(x,m))   op <- paste(w,collapse=" ")   return(op) }   y <-  "this www.example.com/store/locator. of type of www.example.com/google/voice. data i'd extract www.example.com/network. it?"    findurl2(y)       [1] www.example.com/store/locator. www.example.com/google/voice. www.example.com/network.

is there way modify these functions if . ) ? ! or , or (if possible) ). )? )! or ),is found @ end of string followed space (i.e. if punctuation: periods, parenthesizes, question marks, exclamation points, or comma's @ end of url string followed space) not extract them?

use positive lookahead , may combine both...

findurl <- function(x){   m <- gregexpr("\\b(?:www|http)[^[:space:]]+?(?=[^\\s\\w]*(?:\\s|$))", x, perl=true)   w <- unlist(regmatches(x,m))   op <- paste(w,collapse=" ")   return(op) }  x <- "find out more @ http://bit.ly/ss/vuer). check out here http://bit.ly/14pwinr)? http://bit.ly/108vjom! now!"  y <-  "this www.example.com/store/locator. of type of www.example.com/google/voice. data i'd extract www.example.com/network. it?"  findurl(x) findurl(y)  # [1] "http://bit.ly/ss/vuer http://bit.ly/14pwinr http://bit.ly/108vjom"  # [1] "www.example.com/store/locator www.example.com/google/voice www.example.com/network"

this question has answer here: java inner class , static nested class 23 answers i came across in java, know static nested class why create instance of 'static'. isn't whole idea of 'static' use without instance? understand concept of inner classes, why (and frankly how possible to) create 'instance' of 'static' member @ ? why this: 1- outerclass.staticnestedclass nestedobject = new outerclass.staticnestedclass(); 2- nestedobject.anestedclassmethod(); and not this: 1- outerclass outerinstance=new outerclass(); 2- outerinstance.staticnestedclass.anestedclassmethod(); use on inner classes, keyword static indicates can access inner class without instance of outer class. for example: public class outer { public static class inner { /* code here. */ } } with construction, can create instance of inn

ok, know if have character '-' , want remove in places in string javascript, ... someword = someword.replace(/-/g, ''); but, when applying array of characters, s not working ... const badchars = ('\/:*?"<>|').split(''); let filename = title.replace(/ /g, '-').tolocalelowercase(); (let item = 0; item < badchars.length; item++) { // below not work global '/ /g' filename = filename.replace(/badchars[item]/g, ''); } any ideas? /badchars[item]/g looks badchars , literally, followed i , t , e , or m . if you're trying use character badchars[item] , you'll need use regexp constructor, , you'll need escape regex-specific characters. escaping regular expression has been well-covered . using that: filename = filename.replace(new regexp(regexp.quote(badchars[item]), 'g'), ''); but , don't want that. want character class: let filename = title.replac
