Regex find second / and count 5 characters onwards
Is there a way to find and replace using regex here? I want to find the second /
, then count 5 characters father and remove these 5 characters.
This:
fhp/wa_od/11111_picx
a_wpu/hxpokpa/HW18H_wdij
awo/p8i_dxawp/KW920poij_m
Should become this:
fhp/wa_od/_picx
a_wpu/hxpokpa/_wdij
awo/p8i_dxawp/poij_m
regex

You can use this regex which captures some optional text followed by /
, whole of this pattern two times and groups them in group1, then captures 5 characters next to it and then groups remaining characters after those five characters in group2 and finally replaces by whatever matched by group1 and group2.
((?:.*?/){2}).{5}(.*)
Replace it with 12

You can use the folowing regex:
/(w+?/w+?/).{5}(.*)/g
It creates a capturing Group
that matches one or more Word
characters, followed by a slash
, then again one or more Word
character, followed by a slash
. Then it matches 5 of any character, followed by a Group
that matches the rest.
You then replace with:
$1$2 (or in some regex flavors: 12)

You can use the folowing regex:
/(w+?/w+?/).{5}(.*)/g
It creates a capturing Group
that matches one or more Word
characters, followed by a slash
, then again one or more Word
character, followed by a slash
. Then it matches 5 of any character, followed by a Group
that matches the rest.
You then replace with:
$1$2 (or in some regex flavors: 12)
