bwin-Mails parsen, diesmal mit Ruby…

Wie man bwin-Mails mit PHP parsed hatte ich ja schonmal beschrieben, jedoch habe ich das ganze nun nochmal in Ruby und mit IMAP statt POP3 wiederholt. Nun kann ich jede ungelesene Mail (ohne den Flag "Seen") abrufen und muss mir keine Sorgen …

On the subject of “preg_match_all vs. String#scan”, to achieve the same nesting of values in the $matches array of preg_match_all, add the PREG_SET_ORDER flag.

preg_match_all(‘/([a-z0-9_.-]+)@([a-z0-9-]+)\.[a-z.]+/i’, $string, $matches, PREG_SET_ORDER);

var_export($matches);
// => array(
// array(‘joe@example.com’, ‘joe’, ‘example’),
// array(‘walter@example.org’, ‘walter’, ‘example’)
// )

It is worth adding that you will need to escape a different set of characters on ruby than in php. For instance the curly braces ‘{‘, ‘}’, and ‘#’ need to be escaped in ruby because they have special meaning in strings.

We can achieve preg_replace_callback functionality in ruby this way
def my_test_method(matches)
return “_pk”
end
my_string = ‘joe@example@example.com; walter@example.org‘
str = my_string.gsub(/@([a-z0-9-]+)/){ |match| my_test_method(match) }
puts str

Thanks for nice article. Its really very helpful to me.

Nice article. What is the alternative of preg_replace_callback in ruby?
