Extract URL's from a string using PHP [duplicate]

Answer 1

You can try Regex here:

$string = "The text you want to filter goes here. http://google.com, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_m7NEDMrV0,https://instagram.com/hellow/";

preg_match_all('#\bhttps?://[^\s()<>]+(?:\([\w\d]+\)|([^[:punct:]\s]|/))#', $string, $match);

echo "<pre>";
print_r($match[0]); 
echo "</pre>";

This gives the following output:

Array
(
  [0] => http://google.com
  [1] => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_m7NEDMrV0,https://instagram.com/hellow/
)

Answer 2

try this

function getUrls($string)
{
$regex = '/https?\:\/\/[^\" ]+/i';
preg_match_all($regex, $string, $matches);
return ($matches[0]);
}
$urls = getUrls($string);
print_r($urls);

or

$str = '<a href="http://foobar.com"> | Hello world Im a http://google.fr |     Did you mean:http://google.fr/index.php?id=1&b=6#2310';
$pattern = '`.*?((http|ftp)://[\w#$&+,\/:;=?@.-]+)[^\w#$&+,\/:;=?@.-]*?`i';
if (preg_match_all($pattern,$str,$matches)) 
{
print_r($matches[1]);
}

it will works

Answer 3

REGEX is the answer for your problem. Taking the Answer of Object Manipulator.. all it's missing is to exclude "commas", so you can try this code that excludes them and gives 3 separated URL's as output:

$string = "The text you want to filter goes here. http://google.com, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_m7NEDMrV0,https://instagram.com/hellow/";

preg_match_all('#\bhttps?://[^,\s()<>]+(?:\([\w\d]+\)|([^,[:punct:]\s]|/))#', $string, $match);

echo "<pre>";
print_r($match[0]); 
echo "</pre>";

and the output is

Array
(
    [0] => http://google.com
    [1] => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_m7NEDMrV0
    [2] => https://instagram.com/hellow/
)

Answer 4

$string = "The text you want to filter goes here. http://google.com,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_m7NEDMrV0,https://instagram.com/hellow/";

preg_match_all('#\bhttps?://[^\s()<>]+(?:\([\w\d]+\)|([^[:punct:]\s]|/))#',
$string, $match);

echo "<pre>"; $arr = explode(",", $match[0][1]);
print_r($match[0][0]); print_r($arr); echo "</pre>";

Answer 5

$urlstring = "The text you want to filter goes here. http://google.com, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K_m7NEDMrV0,https://instagram.com/hellow/";

preg_match_all('#\bhttps?://[^,\s()<>]+(?:\([\w\d]+\)|([^,[:punct:]\s]|/))#', $urlstring , $result);

print_r($result[0]); 

Answer 6

please try to use below regex

$regex = '/https?\:\/\/[^\",]+/i';
preg_match_all($regex, $string, $matches);
