In R I can use \\1
to reference to a capturing group. However, when using the stringi package, this doesn't work as expected.
library(stringi)
fileName <- "hello-you.lst"
(fileName <- stri_replace_first_regex(fileName, "(.*)\\.lst$", "\\1"))
[1] "1"
Expected output: hello-you
.
In the documentation I couldn't find anything concerning this problem.
You need to use $1
instead of \\1
in the replacement string:
library(stringi)
fileName <- "hello-you.lst"
fileName <- stri_replace_first_regex(fileName, "(.*)\\.lst$", "$1")
[1] "hello-you"
From the doc, stri_*_regex
uses ICU's regular expressions
