Text.RE.Capture

Documentation

data Matches a

the result type to use when every match is needed, not just the first match of the RE against the source

Constructors

Matches

Fields

matchesSource :: !a

the source text being matched

allMatches :: [Match a]

all captures found, left to right

Instances

Functor Matches

RegexContext regex source [MatchText source] => RegexContext regex source (Matches source)

for matching all REs against the source text

Eq a => Eq (Matches a)

Show a => Show (Matches a)

data Match a

the result of matching a RE to a text once, listing the text that was matched and the named captures in the RE and all of the substrings matched, with the text captured by the whole RE; a complete failure to match will be represented with an empty array (with bounds (0,-1))

Constructors

Match

Fields

matchSource :: !a

the whole source text

captureNames :: CaptureNames

the RE's capture names

matchArray :: !(Array CaptureOrdinal (Capture a))

1. .n-1 captures, starting with the text matched by the whole RE

Instances

Functor Match

RegexContext regex source (AllTextSubmatches (Array Int) (source, (Int, Int))) => RegexContext regex source (Match source)

for matching just the first RE against the source text

Eq a => Eq (Match a)

Show a => Show (Match a)

data Capture a

the matching of a single sub-expression against part of the source text

Constructors

Capture

Fields

captureSource :: !a

the whole text that was searched

capturedText :: !a

the text that was matched

captureOffset :: !Int

the number of characters preceding the match with -1 used if no text was captured by the RE (not even the empty string)

captureLength :: !Int

the number of chacter in the captured sub-string

Instances

Functor Capture

Eq a => Eq (Capture a)

Show a => Show (Capture a)

anyMatches :: Matches a -> Bool

tests whether the RE matched the source text at all

countMatches :: Matches a -> Int

count the matches

matches :: Matches a -> [a]

mainCaptures :: Matches a -> [Capture a]

extract the main capture from each match

matched :: Match a -> Bool

tests whether the RE matched the source text at all

matchedText :: Match a -> Maybe a

tests whether the RE matched the source text at all

matchCapture :: Match a -> Maybe (Capture a)

the top-level capture if the source text matched the RE, Nothing otherwise

matchCaptures :: Match a -> Maybe (Capture a, [Capture a])

the top-level capture and the sub captures if the text matched the RE, Nothing otherwise

captureText :: CaptureID -> Match a -> a

look up the text of the nth capture, 0 being the match of the whole RE against the source text, 1, the first bracketed sub-expression to be matched and so on

captureTextMaybe :: CaptureID -> Match a -> Maybe a

look up the text of the nth capture (0 being the match of the whole), returning Nothing if the Match doesn't contain the capture

capture :: CaptureID -> Match a -> Capture a

look up the nth capture, 0 being the match of the whole RE against the source text, 1, the first bracketed sub-expression to be matched and so on

captureMaybe :: CaptureID -> Match a -> Maybe (Capture a)

look up the nth capture, 0 being the match of the whole RE against the source text, 1, the first bracketed sub-expression to be matched and so on, returning Nothing if there is no such capture, or if the capture failed to capture anything (being in a failed alternate)

hasCaptured :: Capture a -> Bool

test if the capture has matched any text

capturePrefix :: Extract a => Capture a -> a

returns the text preceding the match

captureSuffix :: Extract a => Capture a -> a

returns the text after the match
