Salesforce Apex: Regular Expressions


Assume that you receive an email, and your task is to extract all the URLs present in the email body. Copy and paste is a tedious job, right? Using regex script, you can save yourself from the manual work.

You can refer the following code to extract all the URLs from an incoming email.
global class CreateTaskEmailExample implements Messaging.InboundEmailHandler {

  public static final String REGEX_URL = '(?i)\\b((?:[a-z][\\w-]+:(?:/{1,3}|[a-z0-9%])|www\\d{0,3}[.]|[a-z0-9.\\-]+[.][a-z]{2,4}/)(?:[^\\s()<>]+|\\(([^\\s()<>]+|(\\([^\\s()<>]+\\)))*\\))+(?:\\(([^\\s()<>]+|(\\([^\\s()<>]+\\)))*\\)|[^\\s`!()\\[\\]{};:\'".,<>?«»“”‘’]))';
 
  global Messaging.InboundEmailResult handleInboundEmail(Messaging.inboundEmail email, Messaging.InboundEnvelope env){
 
    Messaging.InboundEmailResult result = new Messaging.InboundEmailResult();
    String plainTextBody = email.plainTextBody;

    Matcher m = Pattern.compile(REGEX_URL).matcher(plainTextBody);
    while (m.find()) {
      System.debug(m.group());
    }
    ...
    ...
    ...
    
   }
}

Similarly you can use the following regex expression for email addresses:
String REGEX_EMAIL = '(?:[a-z0-9!#$%&\'*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+(?:\\.[a-z0-9!#$%&\'*+/=?^_`{|}~-]+)*|"(?:[\\x01-\\x08\\x0b\\x0c\\x0e-\\x1f\\x21\\x23-\\x5b\\x5d-\\x7f]|\\\\[\\x01-\\x09\\x0b\\x0c\\x0e-\\x7f])*")@(?:(?:[a-z0-9](?:[a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?\\.)+[a-z0-9](?:[a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9])?|\\[(?:(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\\.){3}(?:25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?|[a-z0-9-]*[a-z0-9]:(?:[\\x01-\\x08\\x0b\\x0c\\x0e-\\x1f\\x21-\\x5a\\x53-\\x7f]|\\\\[\\x01-\\x09\\x0b\\x0c\\x0e-\\x7f])+)\\])';

and this one for phone numbers
String REGEX_PHONE = '(?:(?:\\+?([1-9]|[0-9][0-9]|[0-9][0-9][0-9])\\s*(?:[.-]\\s*)?)?(?:\\(\\s*([2-9]1[02-9]|[2-9][02-8]1|[2-9][02-8][02-9])\\s*\\)|([0-9][1-9]|[0-9]1[02-9]|[2-9][02-8]1|[2-9][02-8][02-9]))\\s*(?:[.-]\\s*)?)?([2-9]1[02-9]|[2-9][02-9]1|[2-9][02-9]{2})\\s*(?:[.-]\\s*)?([0-9]{4})(?:\\s*(?:#|x\\.?|ext\\.?|extension)\\s*(\\d+))?';
