关于javascript:JavaScript正则中g标志

JavaScript 正则中 g 标记

缘起

有一天在思否社区看到有个问题，大抵形容如下

const list = ['a', 'b', '-', 'c', 'd'];
const reg = /[a-z]/g;
const letters = list.filter(i => reg.test(i));

// letters === ['a', 'c'];
// 如果正则不应用 `g` 标记能够失去所有的字母
// 为什么退出 `g` 之后就不能够了

对问题而言，遍历中的 i 就是一个字符，不须要用到g。

然而就我对正则的了解（过于肤浅）感觉上有没有g（只是全局搜寻，不会匹配到就停下来）应该不影响，激发了我的好奇心。

下面题的倡议写法如下

const reg = /[a-z]/g;
reg.test('a'); // => true
reg.test('a'); // => false
reg.test('a'); // => true
reg.test('a'); // => false
reg.test('a'); // => true

解密过程

首先能够确定的体现肯定是 g 导致的

搜索引擎

关上 MDN 认真查看 g 标记的作用，失去论断和我的了解无二。

我猜测应该就是 g 可能启用了某种缓存，又因为 reg 绝对过滤器是全局变量，我将代码改为：

const list = ['a', 'b', '-', 'c', 'd'];
const letters = list.filter(i => /[a-z]/g.test(i));

// letters === ['a', 'b', 'c', 'd'];

将正则申明到每一次遍历，失去论断就是正确的，验证了我的猜测。也失去了，缓存就是正则中的某个中央

上面我找到对应的源码来查看问题的起因

源码层面

因为最近在看 Rust，所以应用 Rust 编写的源码查看 https://github/boa-dev/boa

关上我的项目后，点击 . 进入 vscode 模式，command+p 搜寻 regexp 关键词

进入 test.rs 文件，command+f 搜寻 /g 能够找到在 90 行有个 last_index() 的测试

#[test]
fn last_index() {let mut context = Context::default();
    let init = r#"var regex = /[0-9]+(\.[0-9]+)?/g;"#;
    // forward 的作用：更改 context，并返回后果的字符串。eprintln!("{}", forward(&mut context, init));
    assert_eq!(forward(&mut context, "regex.lastIndex"), "0");
    assert_eq!(forward(&mut context, "regex.test('1.0foo')"), "true");
    assert_eq!(forward(&mut context, "regex.lastIndex"), "3");
    assert_eq!(forward(&mut context, "regex.test('1.0foo')"), "false");
    assert_eq!(forward(&mut context, "regex.lastIndex"), "0");
}

看到了有 lastIndex 关键字，这里再曾经大抵猜到问题的起因了，g 标记存在匹配后的最初一个下标，导致呈现问题。

咱们将眼帘移入到 mod.rs 文件中，搜寻test

在 631 行看到了 fn test() 办法

pub(crate) fn test(
    this: &JsValue,
    args: &[JsValue],
    context: &mut Context,
) -> JsResult<JsValue> {
    // 1. Let R be the this value.
    // 2. If Type(R) is not Object, throw a TypeError exception.
    let this = this.as_object().ok_or_else(|| {
        context
            .construct_type_error("RegExp.prototype.test method called on incompatible value")
    })?;

    // 3. Let string be ? ToString(S).
    let arg_str = args
        .get(0)
        .cloned()
        .unwrap_or_default()
        .to_string(context)?;

    // 4. Let match be ? RegExpExec(R, string).
    let m = Self::abstract_exec(this, arg_str, context)?;

    // 5. If match is not null, return true; else return false.
    if m.is_some() {Ok(JsValue::new(true))
    } else {Ok(JsValue::new(false))
    }
}

在 test() 办法中找到了 Self::abstract_exec() 办法

pub(crate) fn abstract_exec(
    this: &JsObject,
    input: JsString,
    context: &mut Context,
) -> JsResult<Option<JsObject>> {// 1. Assert: Type(R) is Object.
    // 2. Assert: Type(S) is String.

    // 3. Let exec be ? Get(R, "exec").
    let exec = this.get("exec", context)?;

    // 4. If IsCallable(exec) is true, then
    if let Some(exec) = exec.as_callable() {// a. Let result be ? Call(exec, R, « S »).
        let result = exec.call(&this.clone().into(), &[input.into()], context)?;

        // b. If Type(result) is neither Object nor Null, throw a TypeError exception.
        if !result.is_object() && !result.is_null() {return context.throw_type_error("regexp exec returned neither object nor null");
        }

        // c. Return result.
        return Ok(result.as_object().cloned());
    }

    // 5. Perform ? RequireInternalSlot(R, [[RegExpMatcher]]).
    if !this.is_regexp() {return context.throw_type_error("RegExpExec called with invalid value");
    }

    // 6. Return ? RegExpBuiltinExec(R, S).
    Self::abstract_builtin_exec(this, &input, context)
}

又在 Self::abstract_exec() 办法中找到了 Self::abstract_builtin_exec() 办法

    let rx = {let obj = this.borrow();
        if let Some(rx) = obj.as_regexp() {rx.clone()

        }
    };

    // 2. Assert: Type(S) is String.

    // 3. Let length be the number of code units in S.
    let length = input.encode_utf16().count();

    // 4. Let lastIndex be ℝ(? ToLength(? Get(R, "lastIndex"))).
    let mut last_index = this.get("lastIndex", context)?.to_length(context)?;

    // 5. Let flags be R.[[OriginalFlags]].
    let flags = &rx.original_flags;

    // 6. If flags contains "g", let global be true; else let global be false.
    let global = flags.contains('g');

    // 7. If flags contains "y", let sticky be true; else let sticky be false.
    let sticky = flags.contains('y');

    // 8. If global is false and sticky is false, set lastIndex to 0.
    if !global && !sticky {last_index = 0;}

    // 9. Let matcher be R.[[RegExpMatcher]].
    let matcher = &rx.matcher;

    // 10. If flags contains "u", let fullUnicode be true; else let fullUnicode be false.
    let unicode = flags.contains('u');

    // 11. Let matchSucceeded be false.
    // 12. Repeat, while matchSucceeded is false,
    let match_value = loop {

Self::abstract_builtin_exec()办法中存在 global 以及 last_index 这样看来最终执行的办法就是在这里了，认真查看该办法中的代码（代码写的很具体而且每一步都有正文）

在第 12 步中：

  1. lastIndex 超过文本长度且当 global 存在时将 lastIndex 置为 0

  2. 获取匹配到的值（match_value）

    1. 如果未匹配到则置为 advance_string_index() 办法的返回值
    2. advance_string_index()不在以后问题的思考范畴 https://tc39.es/ecma262/#sec-…

第 13 步获取匹配到的值的 endIndex

第 15 步将 lastIndex 置为 endIndex

至此也就整明确了 g 标记的含意，在正则的原型链中存在一个 lastIndex，如果匹配为真时lastIndex 不会重置为 0，下一次开始时继承了上次地位，

论断

在问题代码中剖析

const reg = /[a-z]/g; // 申明后，lastIndex 为 0
reg.test('a'); // => true；第一次匹配后，lastIndex 为 1
reg.test('a'); // => false；第二次匹配因为 lastIndex 为 1，且字符只有一个，失去 false，将 lastIndex 置为 0
reg.test('a'); // => true；上面顺次循环前两次的逻辑
reg.test('a'); // => false；reg.test('a'); // => true；
