Revision as of 11:50, 31 December 2015
Write a program that takes one string argument representing the path to a file and returns the file's extension, or the null string if the file path has no extension. An extension appears after the last period in the file name and consists of one or more letters or numbers.
Show here the action of your routine on the following examples:
- picture.jpg returns .jpg
- http://mywebsite.com/picture/image.png returns .png
- myuniquefile.longextension returns .longextension
- IAmAFileWithoutExtension returns an empty string ""
- /path/to.my/file returns an empty string as the period is in the directory name rather than the file
- file.odd_one returns an empty string as an extension (by this definition), cannot contain an underscore.
ALGOL 68
<lang algol68># extracts a file-extension from the end of a pathname. The file extension is #
- defined as a dot followed by one or more letters or digits #
OP EXTENSION = ( STRING pathname )STRING:
IF LWB pathname >= UPB pathname THEN
# the pathname has 0 or 1 characters and so has no extension #
""
ELIF NOT isalnum( pathname[ UPB pathname ] ) THEN
# the final character is not a letter or digit - no extension #
""
ELSE
# could have an extension #
INT pos := UPB pathname;
WHILE pos > LWB pathname AND isalnum( pathname[ pos ] ) DO
pos -:= 1
OD;
IF pathname[ pos ] = "." THEN
# the character before the letters and digits was a "." #
pathname[ pos : ]
ELSE
# no "." before the letters and digits - no extension #
""
FI
FI ; # EXTENSION #
- test the EXTENSION operator #
PROC test extension = ( STRING pathname, STRING expected extension )VOID:
BEGIN
STRING extension = EXTENSION pathname;
write( ( ( pathname
+ " got extension: ("

+ IF extension = expected extension THEN "" ELSE "NOT" FI

J
Implementation:
<lang J>require'regex' ext=: '[.][a-zA-Z0-9]+$'&rxmatch ;@rxfrom ]</lang>
Obviously most of the work here is done by the regex implementation (pcre, if that matters - and this particular kind of expression tends to be a bit more concise expressed in perl than in J...).
Perhaps of interest is that this is an example of a J fork - here we have three verbs separated by spaces. Unlike a unix system fork (which spins up child process which is an almost exact clone of the currently running process), a J fork is three independently defined verbs. The two verbs on the edge get the fork's argument and the verb in the middle combines those two results.
The left verb uses rxmatch to find the beginning position of the match and its length. The right verb is the identity function. The middle verb extracts the desired characters from the original argument. (For a non-match, the length of the "match" is zero so the empty string is extracted.)
Alternative non-regex Implementation
<lang J>ext=: #~ [: +./\ e.&'.' *. [: -. [: +./\. -.@e.&('.',AlphaNum_j_)</lang>
Task examples:
<lang J> ext 'picture.jpg' .jpg
ext 'http://mywebsite.com/picture/image.png'
.png

jq
Pending resolution of the inconsistency in the task description as of this writing, the following definitions exclude the delimiting period.
In the first section, a version intended for jq version 1.4 is presented. A simpler definition using "match", a regex feature of subsequent versions of jq, is then given.
<lang jq>def file_extension:
def alphanumeric: explode | unique
| reduce .[] as $i
(true;
if . then $i | (97 <= . and . <= 122) or (65 <= . and . <= 90) or (48 <= . and . <= 57)
else false
end );
rindex(".") as $ix
| if $ix then .[1+$ix:] as $ext
| if $ext|alphanumeric then $ext # or ".\($ext)" if the period is wanted
else ""
end
else ""
end;</lang>
<lang jq>def file_extension:
match( "\\.([a-zA-Z0-9]*$)" ) // false | if . then .captures[0].string else "" end ;</lang>
Examples:
Using either version above gives the same results. <lang jq>"picture.jpg", "myuniquefile.longextension", "http://mywebsite.com/picture/image.png", "myuniquefile.longextension", "IAmAFileWithoutExtension", "/path/to.my/file", "file.odd_one" | "\(.) has extension: \"\(file_extension)\""</lang>
- Output:
<lang sh>$ jq -r -n -f Extract_file_extension.jq picture.jpg has extension: "jpg" myuniquefile.longextension has extension: "longextension" http://mywebsite.com/picture/image.png has extension: "png" myuniquefile.longextension has extension: "longextension" IAmAFileWithoutExtension has extension: "" /path/to.my/file has extension: "" file.odd_one has extension: ""</lang>
Oforth
If extension is not valid, returns null, not "". Easy to change if "" is required.

Tcl
Tcl's built in file extension command already almost knows how to do this, except it accepts any character after the dot. Just for fun, we'll enhance the builtin with a new subcommand with the limitation specified for this problem.
<lang Tcl>proc assert {expr} { ;# for "static" assertions that throw nice errors
if {![uplevel 1 [list expr $expr]]} {
set msg "{$expr}"
catch {append msg " {[uplevel 1 [list subst -noc $expr]]}"}
tailcall throw {ASSERT ERROR} $msg
}
}
proc file_ext {file} {
set res ""
regexp {(\.[a-z0-9]+)$} $file -> res
return $res
}
set map [namespace ensemble configure file -map] dict set map ext ::file_ext namespace ensemble configure file -map $map
- and a test:
foreach {file ext} {
picture.jpg .jpg http://mywebsite.com/picture/image.png .png myuniquefile.longextension .longextension IAmAFileWithoutExtension "" /path/to.my/file "" file.odd_one ""
} {
set res ""
assert {[file ext $file] eq $ext}
}</lang>
zkl
The File object has a method splitFileName that does just that, returning a list of the parts. The method knows about the OS it was compiled on (Unix, Windows). <lang zkl>T("picture.jpg","http://mywebsite.com/picture/image.png",
"myuniquefile.longextension","IAmAFileWithoutExtension", "/path/to.my/file","file.odd_one").apply(File.splitFileName).println();</lang>
- Output:
L(L("","","picture",".jpg"),
L("","http://mywebsite.com/picture/","image",".png"),
L("","","myuniquefile",".longextension"),
L("","","IAmAFileWithoutExtension",""),
L("","/path/to.my/","file",""),
L("","","file",".odd_one"))
The last one is an odd duck so some code is in order: <lang zkl>fcn exonly(fileName){
var re=RegExp(0'|\.[a-zA-Z0-9]+$|);
ext:=File.splitFileName(fileName)[-1];
if(not re.matches(ext)) return("");
ext
}</lang> <lang zkl>T("picture.jpg","http://mywebsite.com/picture/image.png",
"myuniquefile.longextension","IAmAFileWithoutExtension", "/path/to.my/file","file.odd_one").apply(exonly).println();</lang>
- Output:
L(".jpg",".png",".longextension","","","")
