preg_match_all rtmp links and its titles

Hi all there I have this string:

All text has PHP_EOL at end of its line.
Some TITLE OF RTMP STREAM
rtmp://slww/best
Some simple text what not required to find
Another not required string line

Used this regex to get rtmp or http links but how can i find its titles?

preg_match_all("/(rtmp:+\S*)|(http:+\S*)/s", $input_lines, $output_array);

That rtmp or html regex works correctly but i need to capture titles of rtmp links too.

Have tried to add ^.*$^ followed by my rtmp http pattern , as ^ its start of line and $ its end of it. And /s option for search multiple lines including new line characters.

/^.*$^(rtmp:+\S*)|(http:+\S*)/s

But can not figure it out how can i find its title. Simple what i have tried to archive is to get whole line above my regex or below my regex.

In some cases i need to grab whole line below.

Any thoughts?

Solution

  • You can actually use this regex:

    (?m)^(?<TITLE>.*)\R+(?<url>(?:rtmp|http):\S*)

    See demo

    Note that you are using /s singleline modifier that forces . to match newline character but you are not using dot in your pattern. You were looking for mulitline /m modifier that makes ^ match at the beginning of a line (I used an inline version (?m)).

    I am not using the singleline modifier thus .* will match just the line before the URL line. The \R in my regex matches a newline sequence.
