Top 19 Rust Regex Projects

  • ripgrep

    ripgrep recursively searches directories for a regex pattern while respecting your gitignore

    Project mention: ugrep vs. grep – What are the differences? | reddit.com/r/commandline | 2023-03-08

    It's the first time I hear about the ugrep. Would be nice to compare it with ripgrep, since both provide benchmark tables listing their tool at the top :D. For my everyday use speed doesn't matter much, as well as interactive mode seems useless (YMMV). So I'm staying with ripgrep for now.

  • fd

    A simple, fast and user-friendly alternative to 'find'

    Project mention: help decompress 1000s of zip file | reddit.com/r/DataHoarder | 2023-03-07

    fd is a tool that can search files by provided patterns and run specific tasks on found files in parallel. Now you only need a command line tool to unpack a file. 7z can do it. 7z e archive.zip -oc:\soft *.cpp -r will extract from the archive all files that end on cpp and put them into a folder C:\soft.

  • grex

    A command-line tool and Rust library for generating regular expressions from user-provided test cases

    Project mention: Regex generator | reddit.com/r/learnpython | 2023-02-03

    Sounds like you're looking for something like grex. Mind you, this does not save you from learning about regular expressions. It‘s more of a supporting tool.

  • sd

    Intuitive find & replace CLI (sed alternative)

    Project mention: What modern utilities should be a standard part of a modern unixy distro? | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-02-18

    sd is a more intuitive alternative to sed, focussing on making find and replace easier - which is all I ever used sed for.

  • melody

    Melody is a language that compiles to regular expressions and aims to be more easily readable and maintainable

    Project mention: Yeah, we all know what you're good for... | reddit.com/r/ProgrammerHumor | 2022-12-09

    just use Melody

  • regex

    An implementation of regular expressions for Rust. This implementation uses finite automata and guarantees linear time matching on all inputs.

    Project mention: Show HN: Regex Derivatives (Brzozowski Derivatives) | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-03-07

    IIRC, that's what the Rust regex engine[1] currently uses

  • pomsky

    A new, portable, regular expression language

    Project mention: How to call from Rust into JS, Java, C#, Ruby and Python? | reddit.com/r/rust | 2023-01-10

    I started with JS, and my first step was to write a simple script that checks if a regex is valid. I can call this script from Rust, but there's a problem: Starting a nodejs process takes about 100ms, which is not acceptable, especially for fuzzing.

  • InfluxDB

    Access the most powerful time series database as a service. Ingest, store, & analyze all types of time series data in a fully-managed, purpose-built database. Keep data forever with low-cost storage and superior data compression.

  • lemmeknow

    The fastest way to identify anything!

    Project mention: The most creative, funny, clever, ridiculous, ... library names! | reddit.com/r/rust | 2023-01-20

    lemmeknow - it let's you know what a text is. Basically identifies text / analyze strings in malware using regular expressions.

  • nomino

    Batch rename utility for developers

    Project mention: Need a Rename Utility | reddit.com/r/MacOS | 2022-07-04

  • regex-automata

    A low level regular expression library that uses deterministic finite automata.

    Project mention: Pomsky 0.8 released: A powerful and modern regular expression language | reddit.com/r/rust | 2022-12-22

    My current technique only gets applied to alternations of simple literals. But the idea is generalizeable and I speculate that it is actually impactful to generalize it.

  • fancy-regex

    Rust library for regular expressions using "fancy" features like look-around and backreferences

    Project mention: lemmeknow v0.7.0 is here with support for identifying bytes with help of regex crate! | reddit.com/r/rust | 2022-10-19

    https://github.com/fancy-regex/fancy-regex/issues/84 it's still open issue

  • DataSurgeon

    Quickly Extracts IP's, Email Addresses, Hashes, Files, Credit Cards, Social Secuirty Numbers and More From Text

    Project mention: FLiP Stack Weekly for 13 March 2023 | dev.to | 2023-03-13

  • lolcate-rs

    Lolcate -- A comically fast way of indexing and querying your filesystem. Replaces locate / mlocate / updatedb. Written in Rust.

    Project mention: Right too for the job... | reddit.com/r/commandline | 2022-08-14

    Indexing is the correct answer to this situation. Apparently mlocate is the direct upgrade to locate, but then of course someone made a Rust version, lolcate-rs

  • recap

    deserialize typed structures from regex captures

    Project mention: Show me your most elegant Advent of Code 2022 Day 11 Answer | reddit.com/r/learnrust | 2022-12-11

    👀 that's goddam nice, I was a bit too much obsessed with serde and ended up using recap that can deserialize from regex, I still end up with some FromStr boilerplate that doesn't look as nice

  • please

    please, a sudo clone (by edneville)

  • regexm

    A Rust macro for writing regex pattern matching.

  • human_regex

    A regex library for humans, written in Rust 🦀

    Project mention: Human Regex hits 0.3! | reddit.com/r/rust | 2023-02-12

    You can check out the example usage and features in the repository readme, as well as the cookbook.

  • Python-Regex

    A port of the Rust regex library to python for super speed linear matching.

  • rx

    Standalone version of Emacs' rx macro (by sulami)

    Project mention: A portable, modern regular expression language | news.ycombinator.com | 2022-12-30

    I had a similar kind of idea for a long time, which I put into action a few weeks ago via a standalone transpiler of Emacs' rx macro to common regexp syntaxes.[0] I ended up getting interrupted and didn't completely finish it, but it generally works, though is probably riddled with edge cases.

    The basic idea of rx is to use S-expressions to describe regular expressions, and my elevator pitch would've been to embed rx invocations in shell scripts using $(syntax), the main use case being something like sed invocations.

    I still think it's a neat idea, and complex regular expressions tend to be hard to parse for humans.
