Regex to match words containing dots? -
(regex skill: 0)
let's want match urls might contain dot.
the parser i'm using has "url contains" feature, if type "you" it'll match "youtube.com/blahblah" , other url containing "you".
however, if use "youtube", it'll match "youtube.com" not "youtu.be".
so example, if wanted match apple, banana, app.le, banan.a, , ba.nana, not orange or ora.nge, have add (apple|banana) match words containing dots anywhere in them?
thanks!
you have match optional dots between every pair of letters:
(a\.?p\.?p\.?l\.?e|b\.?a\.?n\.?a\.?n\.?a)
although allow number of dots. limit number of dots maximum 1, add negative ahead:
(?!.*?\..*?\.)(a\.?p\.?p\.?l\.?e|b\.?a\.?n\.?a\.?n\.?a)
