Text.Regex.Posix.Sequence

Description

This provides String instances for RegexMaker and RegexLike based on Text.Regex.Posix.Wrap, and a (RegexContext Regex String String) instance.

To use these instance, you would normally import Text.Regex.Posix. You only need to import this module to use the medium level API of the compile, regexec, and execute functions. All of these report error by returning Left values instead of undefined or error or fail.

Methods

match :: Regex -> Seq Char -> Seq Char #

matchM :: MonadFail m => Regex -> Seq Char -> m (Seq Char) #

type MatchOffset = Int #

0 based index from start of source, or (-1) for unused

type MatchLength = Int #

non-negative length of a match

data ReturnCode #

ReturnCode is an enumerated CInt, corresponding to the error codes from man 3 regex:

  • retBadbr (REG_BADBR) invalid repetition count(s) in { }
  • retBadpat (REG_BADPAT) invalid regular expression
  • retBadrpt (REG_BADRPT) ?, *, or + operand invalid
  • retEcollate (REG_ECOLLATE) invalid collating element
  • retEctype (REG_ECTYPE) invalid character class
  • retEescape (REG_EESCAPE) \ applied to unescapable character
  • retEsubreg (REG_ESUBREG) invalid backreference number
  • retEbrack (REG_EBRACK) brackets [ ] not balanced
  • retEparen (REG_EPAREN) parentheses ( ) not balanced
  • retEbrace (REG_EBRACE) braces { } not balanced
  • retErange (REG_ERANGE) invalid character range in [ ]
  • retEspace (REG_ESPACE) ran out of memory
  • retNoMatch (REG_NOMATCH) The regexec() function failed to match

type WrapError = (ReturnCode, String) #

The return code will be retOk when it is the Haskell wrapper and not the underlying library generating the error message.

Miscellaneous

Medium level API functions

compile #

Arguments

:: CompOption

Flags (summed together)

-> ExecOption

Flags (summed together)

-> Seq Char

The regular expression to compile (ASCII only, no null bytes)

-> IO (Either WrapError Regex)

Returns: the compiled regular expression

regexec #

Arguments

:: Regex

Compiled regular expression

-> Seq Char

Text to match against

-> IO (Either WrapError (Maybe (Seq Char, Seq Char, Seq Char, [Seq Char])))

Returns: Nothing if the regex did not match the string, or:

  Just (everything before match,
        matched portion,
        everything after match,
        subexpression matches)

Matches a regular expression against a string

execute #

Arguments

:: Regex

Compiled regular expression

-> Seq Char

Text to match against

-> IO (Either WrapError (Maybe (Array Int (MatchOffset, MatchLength))))

Returns: Nothing if the regex did not match the string, or:

  Just (array of offset length pairs)

Matches a regular expression against a string

Compilation options

newtype CompOption #

A bitmapped CInt containing options for compilation of regular expressions. Option values (and their man 3 regcomp names) are

  • compBlank which is a completely zero value for all the flags. This is also the blankCompOpt value.
  • compExtended (REG_EXTENDED) which can be set to use extended instead of basic regular expressions. This is set in the defaultCompOpt value.
  • compNewline (REG_NEWLINE) turns on newline sensitivity: The dot (.) and inverted set [^ ] never match newline, and ^ and $ anchors do match after and before newlines. This is set in the defaultCompOpt value.
  • compIgnoreCase (REG_ICASE) which can be set to match ignoring upper and lower distinctions.
  • compNoSub (REG_NOSUB) which turns off all information from matching except whether a match exists.

newtype ExecOption #

A bitmapped CInt containing options for execution of compiled regular expressions. Option values (and their man 3 regexec names) are

  • execBlank which is a complete zero value for all the flags. This is the blankExecOpt value.
  • execNotBOL (REG_NOTBOL) can be set to prevent ^ from matching at the start of the input.
  • execNotEOL (REG_NOTEOL) can be set to prevent $ from matching at the end of the input (before the terminating NUL).
