regex - Extract number embedded in string -
so run curl command , grep keyword.
here (sanitized) result:
...dir');">town / village</a></th><th><a href="javascript:setfilter(3,'listpublicasdf','asdfdir');">phone number</a></th></tr><tr class="rowodd"><td><a href="javascript:calldialog('asdf','&mode=view&hellothereid=42',600,800);"... i want number 42 - command line one-liner great.
- search string
hellothereid= - extract number right beside (42 in above case)
does have tips this? maybe regex numbers? i'm afraid don't have enough experience construct elegant solution.
you use grep -p (perl-regexp) parameter enabled.
$ grep -op 'hellothereid=\k\d+' file 42 $ grep -op '(?<=hellothereid=)\d+' file 42 \k here job of positive lookbehind. \k keeps text matched far out of overall regex match.
