If you want to use \r and \n you have to pass option /XSEQ.
That should work:

Code: Select all

Call jrepl "\<extensions\>\r\n.*?\r\n\<\/extensions\>\r\n" "" /XSEQ /M /F "MMT.gpx" /O -

Many thanks, that did it!
And if I wanted to loop through every GPX file in a directory?? I've attempted to splice together with the looping as shown here without success:
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/180 ... tch-script

Code: Select all

for /f "usebackq delims=|" %%f in (`dir /b "*.gpx"`) do call jrepl "\<extensions\>\r\n.*?\r\n\<\/extensions\>\r\n" "" /XSEQ /M /F %%f /O -
For the sake of simplicity, JREPL and my batch file are in the same directory as the files I'm attempting to process.

I'd guess that it should already work out of the box. USEBACKQ is not necessary and you also don't need the pipe as delimiter. Thus, a simple FOR will do the job. However, it may fail if the file name contains spaces or special characters like ampersands. Better quote file names represented by %%f.
Not tested:

Code: Select all

for %%f in ("*.gpx") do call jrepl "\<extensions\>\r\n.*?\r\n\<\/extensions\>\r\n" "" /XSEQ /M /F "%%~f" /O -

Hello everyone, I am using JREPL.BAT v8.6 to replace the text in my log file and sometimes I get below error message:

Code: Select all

 JScript runtime error: Permission denied 
or

Code: Select all

 JScript runtime error opening output file: Permission denied 
Does anyone know what could be the root cause of this issue? and how can I prevent it from happening? Thanks.

Would probably help if you showed us all the code you are using, especially if it is part of a larger script.

My best guess is it is truly a permissions issue. You are trying to write to a folder you do not have permissions to but without any context it is hard to know.

Hi Squashman,

Thanks for your reply. I am using Windows 10 and I am just trying to run below command in cmd (I did even try to run cmd as administrator).

Code: Select all

 JREPL "\bLogfile created:.*\b" "Logfile created: %date% %time%" /f "my_file.log" /o - 
Agree with you that it could be the permission issue but it is really hard to figure out as this issue is intermittent.

Maybe AV locks the output file? Try disabling it and do some more tests.

Is another program writing to that log file? If so the system would put a file lock on the file and would not allow JREPL to write back out to the same file name.

I tried to disable the real-time scan of AV and didn't encounter this problem anymore. It seems the AV locks the output file when scanning. Thanks all for your support.

hello!

i want to use jrepl with batch file
but I only get an empty file (result.txt)
and an error message:
JScript runtime error in Search regular expression: Syntactic error in the regular expression

in result.txt this should be
14a3f1a9a023373f886ca2ff1f66294c:ac76bc99a93f5d849796e001208dd920

this would the regex:
https://regex101.com/r/7rVVUW/1

(?<=kili[+])([0-9,a-z:]*)

.bat

Code: Select all

@echo off
call jrepl "\c(?<=kili[+])([0-9,a-z:]*)" "" /k 0 /xseq /f need-regex.txt /o result.txt
i found this here but, i guess i didn't interpret the lieiric correctly
https://stackoverflow.com/a/51655972/15062453

thanks in advance for your help!

JScript doesn't support (?<=...) look-behind assertions. And since I didn't get /P and /PREPL working along with /MATCH, I'm afraid you need to use a two-step processing.

Code: Select all

@echo off &setlocal
call jrepl "kili\+[0-9a-f:]+" "" /MATCH /F "need-regex.txt" /O "result.txt"
call jrepl "[0-9a-f:]+" "" /MATCH /F "result.txt" /O -

Thank you so much this is so perfect!
it doesn't matter if it's in several parts:)

nice, thousands of lines in .log, and just a second i got what I needed
brutal how effective it is :)

do you have any tips on whether any of the online regex sites are compatible with jrepl?
because without it i don't really get on with it to practice with jrepl

since this regex i not finished it so this is a bit off here
https://regex101.com/r/K4tslE/1
but maybe you can quickly clarify me if it's worth to keep trying or not to get links that are .mpd and don't look like that
.mpd? or
.mpd?sdfdsexpiration=1...
do you think jrepl could isolate it so that I only get this link?

Code: Select all

btw this link is an another file inside, but maybe you have an idea for this one to get just the link inside? <Location>....</Location>

Looks like someone didn't read the JREPL help documentation.

regex101 :wink: On the left sidebar you can select ECMAScript (JavaScript).

FWIW Look-ahead assertions are supported.
