Struct regex::SetMatches

source ·

pub struct SetMatches(/* private fields */);

Expand description

A set of matches returned by a regex set.

Values of this type are constructed by RegexSet::matches.

Implementations§

source §

impl SetMatches

source

pub fn matched_any(&self) -> bool

Whether this set contains any matches.

§Example

use regex::RegexSet;

let set = RegexSet::new(&[
    r"[a-z]+@[a-z]+\.(com|org|net)",
    r"[a-z]+\.(com|org|net)",
]).unwrap();
let matches = set.matches("foo@example.com");
assert!(matches.matched_any());

source

pub fn matched(&self, index: usize) -> bool

Whether the regex at the given index matched.

The index for a regex is determined by its insertion order upon the initial construction of a RegexSet, starting at 0.

§Panics

If index is greater than or equal to the number of regexes in the original set that produced these matches. Equivalently, when index is greater than or equal to SetMatches::len.

§Example

use regex::RegexSet;

let set = RegexSet::new([
    r"[a-z]+@[a-z]+\.(com|org|net)",
    r"[a-z]+\.(com|org|net)",
]).unwrap();
let matches = set.matches("example.com");
assert!(!matches.matched(0));
assert!(matches.matched(1));

source

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

The total number of regexes in the set that created these matches.

WARNING: This always returns the same value as RegexSet::len. In particular, it does not return the number of elements yielded by SetMatches::iter. The only way to determine the total number of matched regexes is to iterate over them.

§Example

Notice that this method returns the total number of regexes in the original set, and not the total number of regexes that matched.

use regex::RegexSet;

let set = RegexSet::new([
    r"[a-z]+@[a-z]+\.(com|org|net)",
    r"[a-z]+\.(com|org|net)",
]).unwrap();
let matches = set.matches("example.com");
// Total number of patterns that matched.
assert_eq!(1, matches.iter().count());
// Total number of patterns in the set.
assert_eq!(2, matches.len());

source

pub fn iter(&self) -> SetMatchesIter<'_> ⓘ

Returns an iterator over the indices of the regexes that matched.

This will always produces matches in ascending order, where the index yielded corresponds to the index of the regex that matched with respect to its position when initially building the set.

§Example

use regex::RegexSet;

let set = RegexSet::new([
    r"[0-9]",
    r"[a-z]",
    r"[A-Z]",
    r"\p{Greek}",
]).unwrap();
let hay = "βa1";
let matches: Vec<_> = set.matches(hay).iter().collect();
assert_eq!(matches, vec![0, 1, 3]);

Note that SetMatches also implemnets the IntoIterator trait, so this method is not always needed. For example:

use regex::RegexSet;

let set = RegexSet::new([
    r"[0-9]",
    r"[a-z]",
    r"[A-Z]",
    r"\p{Greek}",
]).unwrap();
let hay = "βa1";
let mut matches = vec![];
for index in set.matches(hay) {
    matches.push(index);
}
assert_eq!(matches, vec![0, 1, 3]);
