Regex for parsing a simple sentence words delimited by double quotes-CodePudding

I have an example sentence that looks like this:

""Music"",""EDM / Electronic"",""organizer: Tiny Toons""

I want to parse this sentence into the tokens:

["Music", "EDM / Electronic", "organizer: Tiny Toons"]

My regex foo is quite limited, and I'm under some time pressure.

Was wondering if someone could help me construct a regex (compatible with Java8 - as I'm using Clojure to apply the regex) to parse out these capture groups.

Thank you, Jason.

CodePudding user response：

Assuming the sentence is the entire string and that there are no commas or " to be matched, you could just use

"[^,\"] "

If the above assumptions are not correct, please give examples of possible input strings and details of what characters can appear within the sections you want to match.

A simple java example of how to use the regex:

String sentence = "\"\"Music\"\",\"\"EDM / Electronic\"\",\"\"organizer: Tiny Toons\"\"";
Matcher matcher = Pattern.compile("[^,\"] ").matcher(sentence);
List<String> matches = new ArrayList<String>();
while (matcher.find()) {
    matches.add(matcher.group());
}
System.out.println(matches);
