Why the the following multiline regex do not work, I expect to match the substring inside the tags. Other simples multiline matches worked correctly.
func main() {
r := regexp.MustCompile(`(?m)<think>(.*)</think>`)
const s = `That is
<think>
FOOBAR
</think>`
fmt.Printf("%#v
", r.FindStringSubmatch(s))
}
By default, "." doesn't match newline. If you give the "s" flag, it does. I don't think you need "m".
Note that if there are multiple <think>...</think>
in your string, the regexp will match everything between the first <think>
and the last </think>
. Using .*?
will cause it to only match the contents of the first one.
