Extract hashtags from complex string using regex

Question

I have a crazy string, something like:

sun #plants #!wood% ##arebaba#tey   travel#blessed    #weed das#$#F!@D!AAAA

I want to extract all \"

Answer 1

Just using match you could get all the group 1 matches into an array.

(?:^|[ #]+)([^ #]+)(?=[ #]|$)

Easy!

 (?: ^ | [ #]+ )
 ( [^ #]+ )                    # (1)
 (?= [ #] | $ )

Or, if you feel it's this simple, then just use ([^ #]+) or [^ #]+
which gets the same thing (like split in reverse).

Answer 2

You can use match using regex: [^#\s]+:

var str = 'sun #plants #!wood% ##arebaba#tey   travel#blessed    #weed das#$#F!@D!AAAA';
    
var arr = str.match(/[^\s#]+/g);

console.log(arr);
