I'm trying to use re.findall(pattern, string)
to pull out a Jira Key from a Git Log line. My example input would be something like:
58df2ac Merge remote-tracking branch 'origin/ABC-1234' into release-1.1.0
df40f59 Merge branch 'ABC-2345' into release-1.1.1
And what I want to get out of this is just the ABC-1234
& ABC-2345
.
I know the logic I'd want to use would be starts with ABC-
and goes to until it finds a non number like a quote, space or letter.
Any help in figuring the correct regex would be appreciated.
Thanks
This will work:
re.findall('ABC-[0-9]+', string)
[0-9]
specifies any Arabic numeral. It is preferable to \d
because the latter's behavior depends on the active locale. The +
specifies that the previous pattern must be matched one or more times.
