One way to extract the number 5868
from the URL is to use Regular Expression and String manipulation. The following code shows an example of how to accomplish this in JavaScript:
index.tsx330 chars10 lines
The regular expression /\/(\d+)\?/
matches the first occurrence of a forward slash, followed by one or more digits (captured as a group), followed by a question mark. The parentheses in the regular expression denote a capturing group, which we can access later via the match
array.
We then use the logical AND &&
operator to check if the match
array exists (to avoid a TypeError if the regular expression doesn't match anything), and access the captured number via index 1
.
Finally, we log the extracted number to the console.
