I have a url strings like
"example.com/Apps/Visitor/visitscanner" ,
"example.com/Apps/Seatings/visitscanner
i want to select the directory name after the ""http://example.com/Apps/"
for above example url's, if my url string is "http://example.com/Apps/Visitor/visitscanner" this one, then results should be like "Visitor".
How can i do this in javascript?
you could use split(), like:
var str = "example.com/Apps/Visitor/visitscanner";
var parts = str.split('/');
console.log( parts[parts.length - 2] ); //Visitor
You can do this with regex if you want to match URLs like "http://example.com/Apps/Visitor/visitscanner/foo" or "http://example.com/Apps/Visitor"...
var url = "http://example.com/Apps/Visitor/visitscanner";
var match = /^(https?:\/\/)?example.com\/apps\/([^/]+)/i.exec(url);
var directory = match[2]; // get the second match group ("Visitor")
Live Demo
you can do it with a regex like :-
var url = "http://example.com/Apps/Visitor/visitscanner";
var dirName = /\/\/.+?\/Apps\/(.+?)(?=\/)/g.exec(url)[1];

I have this URL
http://192.168.22.124:3000/temp/box/c939c38adcf1873299837894214a35eb
I want to replace the last part of my URL which is c939c38adcf1873299837894214a35eb with something else.
How can I do it?
Try this:
var url = 'http://192.168.22.124:3000/temp/box/c939c38adcf1873299837894214a35eb';
somethingelse = 'newhash';
var newUrl = url.substr(0, url.lastIndexOf('/') + 1) + somethingelse;
Note, using the built-in substr and lastIndexOf is far quicker and uses less memory than splitting out the component parts to an Array or using a regular expression.
You can follow this steps:
split the URL with /
replace the last item of array
join the result array using /
var url = 'http://192.168.22.124:3000/temp/box/c939c38adcf1873299837894214a35eb';
var res = url.split('/');
res[res.length-1] = 'someValue';
res = res.join('/');
console.log(res);
Using replace we can try:
var url = "http://192.168.22.124:3000/temp/box/c939c38adcf1873299837894214a35eb";
var replacement = 'blah';
url = url.replace(/(http.*\/).*/, "$1" + replacement);
console.log(url);
We capture everything up to and including the final path separator, then replace with that captured fragment and the new replacement.
Complete guide:
// url
var urlAsString = window.location.href;
// split into route parts
var urlAsPathArray = urlAsString.split("/");
// create a new value
var newValue = "routeValue";
// EITHER update the last parameter
urlAsPathArray[urlAsPathArray.length - 1] = newValue;
// OR replace the last parameter
urlAsPathArray.pop();
urlAsPathArray.push(newValue);
// join the array with the slashes
var newUrl = urlAsPathArray.join("/");
// log
console.log(newUrl);
// output
// http://192.168.22.124:3000/temp/box/routeValue
You could use a regular expression like this:
let newUrl = /^.*\//.exec(origUrl)[0] + 'new_ending';
I have a URL which may be formatted like this: http://domain.com/space/all/all/FarmAnimals
or like this: http://domain.com/space/all/all/FarmAnimals?param=2
What regular expression can I use to return the expression FarmAnimals in both instances?
I am trying this:
var myRegexp = /\.com\/space\/[a-zA-Z0-9]*\/[a-zA-Z0-9]*\/(.*)/;
var match = myRegexp.exec(topURL);
var full = match[1];
but this only works in the first instance, can someone please provide an example of how to set up this regex with an optional question mark closure?
Thank you very much!
/[^/?]+(?=\?|$)/
Any non-/ followed by either ? or and end-of-line.
I wouldn't write my own regex here and let the Path class handle it (if those are your two string formats).
string url = "http://domain.com/space/all/all/FarmAnimals";
//ensure the last character is not a '/' otherwise `GetFileName` will be empty
if (url.Last() == '/') url = url.Remove(url.Length - 1);
//get the filename (anything from FarmAnimals onwards)
string parsed = Path.GetFileName(url);
//if there's a '?' then only get the string up to the '?' character
if (parsed.IndexOf('?') != -1)
parsed = parsed.Split('?')[0];
You could use something like this:
var splitBySlash = topURL.split('/')
var splitByQ = splitBySlash[splitBySlash.length - 1].split('?')
alert(splitByQ[0])
Explanation:
splitBySlash will be ['http:','','domain.com', ... ,'all','FarmAnimals?param=2'].
Then splitByQ will grab the last item in that array and split it by ?, which becomes ['FarmAnimas','param=2'].
Then just grab the first element in that.
This
.*\/(.*?)(\?.*)?$
Should capture the part of the string you are looking for as the group 1 (and the query after ? in group 2, if needed).
var url = 'http://domain.com/space/all/all/FarmAnimals?param=2';
//var url = 'http://domain.com/space/all/all/FarmAnimals';
var index_a = url.lastIndexOf('/');
var index_b = url.lastIndexOf('?');
console.log(url.substring(index_a + 1, (index_b != -1 ? index_b : url.length)));
I have urls which look like this :http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/BR0Y3MZ21bo/0.jpg. Can someone help me extract the "ID" BR0Y3MZ21bo between the last two slashes in the url?
You can use split(), split will give you array of string being separated by / and your desired string is at second last index of array.
Live Demo
arr = url.split('/');
arr[arr.length-2];
Try this:
var url = 'http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/BR0Y3MZ21bo/0.jpg'; // window.location.href;
var page = url.substr(0, url.lastIndexOf('/')); // output -> http://i1.ytimg.com/vi/BR0Y3MZ21bo
var str = page.substr(page.lastIndexOf('/')+1); // output -> BR0Y3MZ21bo
alert(str); // BR0Y3MZ21bo
FIDDLE
I have the following link:
sitename.com/Default.aspx?PageID=13078494
I want to grab the following: "PageID=13078494". This is what I have so far:
var url = "sitename.com/Default.aspx?PageID=13078494";
urlmatch = url.match([PageID=13078494]);
urlmatch[0];
Is this the proper expression for what I'm trying to do?
Your regex and its syntax are wrong.
A better way would be to not use a regex at all. Use .split() instead:
var urlmatch = url.split('?')[1];
Here's the fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/qpXNU/
var myregexp = /[?&]PageID=(\d+)/i;
var match = myregexp.exec(url);
if (match != null) {
//This is if your match it successful
result = match[1];
} else {
//This is if url doesn't match
result = "";
}
This one will work regardless of where PageID is. It will match
sitename.com/Default.aspx?PageID=13078494
anything.org/Default.aspx?PageID=13078494
sitename.com/Default.aspx?foo=bar&PageID=13078494
sitename.com/Default.html?foo=bar&PageID=13078494&bar=foo
Default.html?foo=bar&PageID=13078494&bar=foo
Importantly, it WON'T match
sitename.com/Default.aspx?NotThePageID=13078494
Or without the checking, simply
url.match(/[?&]PageID=(\d+)/i)[1], but I'd advice against that unless your SURE it will always match.
Try the following regex, which will extract the PageID and place it in the first match group:
var url = "sitename.com/Default.aspx?PageID=13078494";
urlmatch = url.match(/PageID=(\d+)/);
alert(urlmatch[1]); // 13078494
If you are matching specific value, then it's fine, otherwise use below to match any number of digits in pageID:
/PageID=\d+/
as:
var url = "sitename.com/Default.aspx?PageID=13078494";
var urlmatch = url.match(/PageID=\d+/);
alert(urlmatch[0]);
or to match 8 exact digits in pageID, use:
/PageID=\d{8}/
as:
var url = "sitename.com/Default.aspx?PageID=13078494";
var urlmatch = url.match(/PageID=\d{8}/);
alert(urlmatch[0]);
When it comes to handling URLs, the browser is pretty good.
You should convert your string to an actual URL like so:
var toURL = function (href) {
var a = document.createElement('a');
a.href = href;
return a;
};
Now use the browser's built-in parsing capabilities:
var url = toURL('sitename.com/Default.aspx?PageID=13078494');
alert(url.search);
i have a string like this .
var url="http://localhost/elephanti2/chaink/stores/stores_ajax_page/5/b.BusinessName/asc/1/11"
i want to get substrings
http://localhost/elephanti2/chaink/stores/stores_ajax_page
and
5/b.BusinessName/asc/1/11
i want to split string from the 7 th slash and make the two sub-strings
how to do this ??,
i looked for split()
but in this case if i use it i have to con-cat the sub-strings and make what i want . is there a easy way ??
try this one:
var url="http://localhost/elephanti2/chaink/stores/stores_ajax_page/5/b.BusinessName/asc/1/11";
var parts = url.split('/');
var p1 = parts.slice(0,6).join('/');
var p2 = parts.slice(7).join('/');
alert(p1);
alert(p2);
p1 should get the first part and p2 is the second part
You can try this regex. Generally if your url pattern always follow this structure, it will work.
var pattern = /(\w+:\/\/(\w+\/){5})/i;
var url = "http://localhost/elephanti2/chaink/stores/stores_ajax_page/5/b.BusinessName/asc/1/11";
var result = url.split(pattern);
alert(result[1]);
alert(result[3]);
Try this :
var str = 'http://localhost/elephanti2/chaink/stores/stores_ajax_page/5/b.BusinessName/asc/1/11',
delimiter = '/',
start = 7,
tokens = str.split(delimiter).slice(start),
result = tokens.join(delimiter);
var match = str.match(/([^\/]*\/){5}/)[0];
