PHP Regular Expression (PCRE)

Regular expression (regular expression) describes a string matching pattern that can be used to check a Whether the string contains a certain substring, replacing the matching substring, or extracting a substring that meets a certain condition from a string, etc.

For more information on regular expressions, please refer to our: Regular Expressions - Tutorial.

In PHP we can use the PCRE extension to match string patterns.

PREG Constant


	Perform a regular expression search and replace
	Return matches Pattern array entry
	Returns the error code generated by the last PCRE regular execution
	Perform a global regular expression match

##5.2.0PREG_BACKTRACK_LIMIT_ERROR PREG_RECURSION_LIMIT_ERROR If the recursion limit is exceeded, returned when preg_last_error() is called. PREG_BAD_UTF8_ERROR If the last error is due to abnormal utf-8 data ( Available only when running regular expressions in UTF-8 mode). Caused by calling preg_last_error() to return. PREG_BAD_UTF8_OFFSET_ERROR If the offset does not match a legal urf-8 code (Only available when running regular expressions in UTF-8 mode). Call preg_last_error() to return. PCRE_VERSION PCRE version number and release date (for example: "7.0 18- Dec-2006").

Constant	Description	From which version
PREG_PATTERN_ORDER	The results are sorted according to "rules" and are only used for preg_match_all(), that is, $matches[0] is the matching result of the complete rule, $ matches[1] is the result of the first subgroup match, and so on.	since
PREG_SET_ORDER	The results are sorted by "set", only used for preg_match_all(), that is, $matches[ 0] saves all results (including subgroups) information of the first matching result, $matches[1] saves the second result information, and so on.
PREG_OFFSET_CAPTURE	View the description of PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE.	4.3.0
PREG_SPLIT_NO_EMPTY	This flag tells preg_split() to return the non-empty part.
PREG_SPLIT_DELIM_CAPTURE	This tag tells preg_split() to also capture bracket expressions matched to Content.	4.0.5
PREG_SPLIT_OFFSET_CAPTURE	If this tag is set, the matching substring will appear each time The offset of is also returned. Note that this will change the value in the returned array so that each element is an array consisting of the matched substring as the 0th element and its offset relative to the target string as the 1st element. This flag can only be used with preg_split().	4.3.0
PREG_NO_ERROR	Call preg_last_error() to return when there is no matching error.	5.2.0
PREG_INTERNAL_ERROR	If there is an internal PCRE error, call preg_last_error() to return.
	If the callback limit is exceeded, returned when calling preg_last_error(). ##5.2.0
