Define
<lang scala>val Bottles1 = "(\\d+) bottles of beer".r // syntactic sugar
val Bottles2 = """(\d+) bottles of beer""".r // using triple-quotes to preserve backslashes
val Bottles3 = new scala.util.matching.Regex("(\\d+) bottles of beer") // standard
val Bottles4 = new scala.util.matching.Regex("""(\d+) bottles of beer""", "bottles") // with named groups
</lang>
Search and replace with string methods:
<lang scala>"99 bottles of beer" matches "(\\d+) bottles of beer" // the full string must match
"99 bottles of beer" replace ("99", "98") // Single replacement
"99 bottles of beer" replaceAll ("b", "B") // Multiple replacement
</lang>
Search with regex methods:
<lang scala>"\\d+".r findFirstIn "99 bottles of beer" // returns first partial match, or None
"\\w+".r findAllIn "99 bottles of beer" // returns all partial matches as an iterator
"\\s+".r findPrefixOf "99 bottles of beer" // returns a matching prefix, or None
Bottles4 findFirstMatchIn "99 bottles of beer" // returns a "Match" object, or None
Bottles4 findPrefixMatchOf "99 bottles of beer" // same thing, for prefixes
val bottles = (Bottles4 findFirstMatchIn "99 bottles of beer").get.group("bottles") // Getting a group by name
</lang>
Using pattern matching with regex:
<lang scala>val Some(bottles) = Bottles4 findPrefixOf "99 bottles of beer" // throws an exception if the matching fails; full string must match
for {
line <- """|99 bottles of beer on the wall
|99 bottles of beer
|Take one down, pass it around
|98 bottles of beer on the wall""".stripMargin.lines
} line match {
case Bottles1(bottles) => println("There are still "+bottles+" bottles.") // full string must match, so this will match only once
case _ =>
}
for {
matched <- "(\\w+)".r findAllIn "99 bottles of beer" matchData // matchData converts to an Iterator of Match
} println("Matched from "+matched.start+" to "+matched.end)
</lang>
Replacing with regex:
<lang scala>Bottles2 replaceFirstIn ("99 bottles of beer", "98 bottles of beer")
Bottles3 replaceAllIn ("99 bottles of beer", "98 bottles of beer")
</lang>
