Thanks, didn't know there was so many  ;D

kalos:
Guys, can anyone tell me the command that will find all the regex matches, isolate a specific part of each regex match and output all of them in a file?

I have the regex, but I don't know how to indicate a part in it.
The regex is this: "<html:productType>(.+?)</html:productType>"
I used the parentheses to isolate the part of the regex that I want to be output in the file.

How the whole command should be?

I found online and wrote this:
[regex]::match($s,"<html:productType>(.+?)</html:productType>").Groups[1].Value
But I don't know where you specify the source text or if it is correct. Any hint?

Thanks!

PS: It is really a nightmare to do some simple stuff in Powershell. There is very poor and incomplete documentation. Do you think there could be any other solution? Python maybe or anything else? I need it to work with big data though and if it has GUI it would be nice. Also, it needs to be free for commercial and any use.

Ah great thanks!

I tested it and there is an issue. I searched in the file and there is only one instance of <html:productType>(.+?)</html:productType>
However, the output file mentioned the above value (.+?) twice. What could be the problem?

Thanks!

gci C:\XML.xml | % { sls $_.Name -Pattern '<html:productType>(.+?)<\/html:productType>' -a | % { $_.Matches } | % { $_.Groups[1].Value } >> C:\out.txt }
