match()
method retrieves the result of matching a
string
against a
regular expression
.
str.match(regexp)
regexp
A regular expression object.
regexp
is a non-
RegExp
object, it is implicitly converted to a
RegExp
by using
new RegExp(
regexp
)
.
match()
method directly, you will get an
Array
with an empty string:
[""]
.
Array
whose contents depend on the presence or absence of the global (
g
) flag, or
null
if no matches are found.
g
flag is used, all results matching the complete regular expression will be returned, but capturing groups will not.
g
flag is not used, only the first complete match and its related capturing groups are returned. In this case, the returned item will have additional properties as described below.
As explained above, some results contain additional properties as described below.
groups
undefined
if no named capturing groups were defined. See
Groups and Ranges
了解更多信息。
index
The index of the search at which the result was found.
input
A copy of the search string.
If the regular expression does not include the
g
flag,
str.match()
will return the same result as
RegExp.exec()
.
RegExp
,使用
RegExp.test()
.
RegExp.exec()
代替。
RegExp.exec()
or
String.prototype.matchAll()
代替。
In the following example,
match()
is used to find '
章节
' followed by 1 or more numeric characters followed by a decimal point and numeric character 0 or more times.
The regular expression includes the
i
flag so that upper/lower case differences will be ignored.
const str = 'For more information, see Chapter 3.4.5.1'; const re = /see (chapter \d+(\.\d)*)/i; const found = str.match(re); console.log(found); // logs [ 'see Chapter 3.4.5.1', // 'Chapter 3.4.5.1', // '.1', // index: 22, // input: 'For more information, see Chapter 3.4.5.1' ] // 'see Chapter 3.4.5.1' is the whole match. // 'Chapter 3.4.5.1' was captured by '(chapter \d+(\.\d)*)'. // '.1' was the last value captured by '(\.\d)'. // The 'index' property (22) is the zero-based index of the whole match. // The 'input' property is the original string that was parsed.
The following example demonstrates the use of the global and ignore case flags with
match()
. All letters
A
through
E
and
a
through
e
are returned, each its own element in the array.
const str = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz'; const regexp = /[A-E]/gi; const matches_array = str.match(regexp); console.log(matches_array); // ['A', 'B', 'C', 'D', 'E', 'a', 'b', 'c', 'd', 'e']

String.prototype.matchAll()
and
Advanced searching with flags
.
In browsers which support named capturing groups, the following code captures "
fox
" or "
cat
" into a group named "
animal
":
const paragraph = 'The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog. It barked.';
const capturingRegex = /(?<animal>fox|cat) jumps over/;
const found = paragraph.match(capturingRegex);
console.log(found.groups); // {animal: "fox"}
const str = "Nothing will come of nothing."; str.match(); // returns [""]
When the
regexp
parameter is a string or a number, it is implicitly converted to a
RegExp
by using
new RegExp(
regexp
)
.
If it is a positive number with a positive sign,
RegExp()
will ignore the positive sign.
const str1 = "NaN means not a number. Infinity contains -Infinity and +Infinity in JavaScript.",
str2 = "My grandfather is 65 years old and My grandmother is 63 years old.",
str3 = "The contract was declared null and void.";
str1.match("number"); // "number" is a string. returns ["number"]
str1.match(NaN); // the type of NaN is the number. returns ["NaN"]
str1.match(Infinity); // the type of Infinity is the number. returns ["Infinity"]
str1.match(+Infinity); // returns ["Infinity"]
str1.match(-Infinity); // returns ["-Infinity"]
str2.match(65); // returns ["65"]
str2.match(+65); // A number with a positive sign. returns ["65"]
str3.match(null); // returns ["null"]
