| Return type | Name and parameters |
|---|---|
boolean
|
asBoolean()
Coerce a Matcher instance to a boolean value. |
Object
|
getAt(int idx)
Support the subscript operator, e.g. matcher[index], for a regex Matcher. |
List
|
getAt(Collection indices)
Select a List of values from a Matcher using a Collection to identify the indices to be selected. |
int
|
getCount()
Find the number of Strings matched to the given Matcher. |
static Matcher
|
getLastMatcher()
Get the last hidden matcher that the system used to do a match. |
boolean
|
hasGroup()
Check whether a Matcher contains a group or not. |
Iterator
|
iterator()
Returns an Iterator which traverses each match. |
boolean
|
matchesPartially()
Given a matcher that matches a string against a pattern, this method returns true when the string matches the pattern or if a longer string, could match the pattern. |
void
|
setIndex(int idx)
Set the position of the given Matcher to the given index. |
long
|
size()
Provide the standard Groovy size() method for Matcher.

Coerce a Matcher instance to a boolean value.
Support the subscript operator, e.g. matcher[index], for a regex Matcher.
For an example using no group match,
def p = /ab[d|f]/
def m = "abcabdabeabf" =~ p
assert 2 == m.count
assert 2 == m.size() // synonym for m.getCount()
assert ! m.hasGroup()
assert 0 == m.groupCount()
def matches = ["abd", "abf"]
for (i in 0..<m.count) {
assert m[i] == matches[i]
}
For an example using group matches,
def p = /(?:ab([c|d|e|f]))/
def m = "abcabdabeabf" =~ p
assert 4 == m.count
assert m.hasGroup()
assert 1 == m.groupCount()
def matches = [["abc", "c"], ["abd", "d"], ["abe", "e"], ["abf", "f"]]
for (i in 0..<m.count) {
assert m[i] == matches[i]
}
For another example using group matches,
def m = "abcabdabeabfabxyzabx" =~ /(?:ab([d|x-z]+))/
assert 3 == m.count
assert m.hasGroup()
assert 1 == m.groupCount()
def matches = [["abd", "d"], ["abxyz", "xyz"], ["abx", "x"]]
for (i in 0..<m.count) {
assert m[i] == matches[i]
}
idx - an indexSelect a List of values from a Matcher using a Collection to identify the indices to be selected.
indices - a Collection of indicesFind the number of Strings matched to the given Matcher.
Get the last hidden matcher that the system used to do a match.
Check whether a Matcher contains a group or not.
true if matcher contains at least one group.Returns an Iterator which traverses each match.
Given a matcher that matches a string against a pattern, this method returns true when the string matches the pattern or if a longer string, could match the pattern. For example:
def emailPattern = /\w+@\w+\.\w{2,}/
def matcher = "john@doe" =~ emailPattern
assert matcher.matchesPartially()
matcher = "john@doe.com" =~ emailPattern
assert matcher.matchesPartially()
matcher = "john@@" =~ emailPattern
assert !matcher.matchesPartially()
Set the position of the given Matcher to the given index.
idx - the index numberProvide the standard Groovy size() method for Matcher.
