Regular expression for capturing hashtags in groups












2















I need a regular expression to capture a #hashtag in multiple groups(group 1-"#" group 2-"hasshtag").
I tried:



"(\b#)([a-z0-9]{1,})(\b)"


But this doesn't capture anything.Any suggestions?

  • Try "\B(#)(\w+)". Please also add the code to repro into the question body.

You may use this regex:



"(\B#)([a-zA-Z0-9]+)"


B asserts position where b does not match. Using b before # will fail the match unless there is a word character before #.
