Regex Date Java import-CodePudding

I have a small issue that I am trying to figure out and I am running out of ideas and places to look for an answer.

I use Sentry.io to catch errors. One of those errors is:

java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "" does not match (\p{Nd}{4} )(\p{Nd}{2} )(\p{Nd}  )

It happens when a new data is imported to the database from other source (different database). Although not in every case. For period of 30 days it can give between 1-2k errors out of thousands of data that is passing through. As far as I understand, there is an error with a date format, but it does not seem like there is something wrong with it inside the data:

,Person-BirthDate":"1994-07-25",

Every date is like this, so what is or what might causing this issue?

Stack trace:

java.text.ParseException: Unparseable date: "" does not match (\p{Nd}{4} )(\p{Nd}{2} )(\p{Nd}  )

If I missed something, please let me know. I do not know much about it, I recently started learning about it. Also, if stands for 1 or more occurence what does the stands for? Is it the same as in Perl?

Thanks for any comments and help!

example data: (edited since there is sensitive information)

And there is a bunch of those in one go, all have the same date format. As suddenly it breaks, same way it works again...

CodePudding user response：

Note:

All possessive quantifiers in (\p{Nd}{4} )(\p{Nd}{2} )(\p{Nd} ) are not necessary, {4} is equal to {4}, {2} is equal to {2}, and at the end of the pattern does not make sense as there is no other pattern to match. Possessive quantifiers make sense only when they are followed with patterns that may match text of arbitrary length, so as to prevent backtracking into the patterns with possessive quantifiers.
If there are hyphens used as date part separators you need to add them to the pattern.
\p{Nd} is only necessary if you plan to use some Unicode chars as digits. It seems your dates contain ASCII digits, so \d is enough.

So you may use

(\d{4})-(\d{2})-(\d )

(\d{4})-(\d{2})-(\d{2})

to match just two digits as the last date part.

There are more precise yyyy-MM-dd date patterns, it is up to you to set up the requirements.
