if use RegExp "External text file", not work.
Work only "Specified Text"

Posted: **Mon Sep 17, 2018 8:01 am**

I just tested RegExp actions
They work with external file.

Could you send your example of the task and external file. It seems you do something wrong.

The problem that this HTML has utf-8 format. But the file has not utf-8 signature. So RoboTask reads the file AS-IT-IS as simple ASCII text file

You regexp action should find and replace these expressions in the file

Code: Select all

<b>Я<br />Н<br />В<br />А<br />Р<br />Ь</b>
<b>Ф</b><br /><b>Е</b><br /><b>В</b><br /><b>Р</b><br /><b>А</b><br /><b>Л</b><br /><b>Ь</b>
<b>М</b><br /><b>А</b><br /><b>Р</b><br /><b>Т</b>
<b>А<br />П<br />Р<br />Е<br />Л<br />Ь</b>

and so on - all 12 months.

But the file contains these expressions in UTF-8 format

Code: Select all

<b>РЇ<br />Рќ<br />Р’<br />Рђ<br />Р <br />Р¬</b>
<b>Р¤</b><br /><b>Р•</b><br /><b>Р’</b><br /><b>Р </b><br /><b>Рђ</b><br /><b>Р›</b><br /><b>Р¬</b>
<b>Рњ</b><br /><b>Рђ</b><br /><b>Р </b><br /><b>Рў</b>
<b>Рђ<br />Рџ<br />Р <br />Р•<br />Р›<br />Р¬</b>

You can see that these expressions doesn't match to your regular expression

So you need to read this file as UTF-8 file forcibly.
Look at the corrected task below

Code: Select all

To make ASCII <==> UTF8 conversion you can use TXT UTF-8 Conversion action

if same text, insert in "Specified Text", all work!

Not same. The most text editors (including Notepad) makes automatic conversion of the text. But sometimes they are wrong.

Posted: **Mon Sep 17, 2018 1:25 pm**

it's WORK! Thank you, very much Oleg!

Not understand how work ReGex on Robotask. I use site https://regexr.com/ for check, but not match with RobotaskRegex

Pattern

Code: Select all

=((\n).+)(discord)((\n).*){1,}Volume\spercent.*(\s\d.*?%)((\n).*){1,}discord.exe

on site, all match, but not Robotask, why?

Posted: **Wed Sep 19, 2018 9:06 pm**

Use the expression

Code: Select all

(?im)=((\r\n).+)(discord)((\r\n).*){1,}Volume\spercent.*(\s\d.*?%)((\r\n).*){1,}discord\.exe

(?im) - modifier Case insensitive and Multiline text. You can use Advanced Options instead of this modifier
Use \r\n instead of \n. RoboTask uses multi-line text with \r\n line separator.

Also minor note: use discord\.exe instead of discord.exe at the end of the pattern

Also look at my example below. It works.

Code: Select all
