Maintenance fork of the Xeger Java library for generating strings according to a regexp
License: Apache License 2.0
This is a maintenance fork of the Xeger library. It is a Java library for generating strings that match a specific regular expression. The original version of Xeger is available from this address, but development seems to have stopped: http://code.google.com/p/xeger/ The objective of this fork is to simply maintain Xeger, fixing the reported bugs as they come. Pull requests are welcome, though :-). For reference, I have copied several useful sections of the original website below. Introduction ------------ Think of it as the opposite of regular expression matchers. This library allows you to generate text that is guaranteed to match a regular expression passed in. Let's take the regular expression: [ab]{4,6}c Using Xeger, you can now generate Strings matching this pattern like this: String regex = "[ab]{4,6}c"; Xeger generator = new Xeger(regex); String result = generator.generate(); assert result.matches(regex); Limitations ----------- Xeger does not support all valid Java regular expressions. The full set of what is defined here and is summarized below. Future versions might support a more complete set, in case of popular demand. regexp ::= unionexp | unionexp ::= interexp | unionexp (union) | interexp interexp ::= concatexp & interexp (intersection) [OPTIONAL] | concatexp concatexp ::= repeatexp concatexp (concatenation) | repeatexp repeatexp ::= repeatexp ? (zero or one occurrence) | repeatexp * (zero or more occurrences) | repeatexp + (one or more occurrences) | repeatexp {n} (n occurrences) | repeatexp {n,} (n or more occurrences) | repeatexp {n,m} (n to m occurrences, including both) | complexp complexp ::= ~ complexp (complement) [OPTIONAL] | charclassexp charclassexp ::= [ charclasses ] (character class) | [^ charclasses ] (negated character class) | simpleexp charclasses ::= charclass charclasses | charclass charclass ::= charexp - charexp (character range, including end-points) | charexp simpleexp ::= charexp | . (any single character) | # (the empty language) [OPTIONAL] | @ (any string) [OPTIONAL] | " <Unicode string without double-quotes> " (a string) | ( ) (the empty string) | ( unionexp ) (precedence override) | < <identifier> > (named automaton) [OPTIONAL] | <n-m> (numerical interval) [OPTIONAL] charexp ::= <Unicode character> (a single non-reserved character) | \ <Unicode character> (a single character)
