python中正则表达式匹配年份_在Python中使用正则表达式匹配日期？

这是制作正则表达式的一种方法,该表达式将匹配您所需格式的任何日期(尽管您可以明显地调整逗号是否是可选的,添加月份缩写,等等)：

years = r'((?:19|20)\d\d)'

pattern = r'(%%s) +(%%s), *%s' % years

thirties = pattern % (

"September|April|June|November",

r'0?[1-9]|[12]\d|30')

thirtyones = pattern % (

"January|March|May|July|August|October|December",

r'0?[1-9]|[12]\d|3[01]')

fours = '(?:%s)' % '|'.join('%02d' % x for x in range(4, 100, 4))

feb = r'(February) +(?:%s|%s)' % (

r'(?:(0?[1-9]|1\d|2[0-8])), *%s' % years, # 1-28 any year

r'(?:(29), *((?:(?:19|20)%s)|2000))' % fours) # 29 leap years only

result = '|'.join('(?:%s)' % x for x in (thirties, thirtyones, feb))

r = re.compile(result)

print result

然后我们有：

>>> r.match('January 30, 2001') is not None

True

>>> r.match('January 31, 2001') is not None

True

>>> r.match('January 32, 2001') is not None

False

>>> r.match('February 32, 2001') is not None

False

>>> r.match('February 29, 2001') is not None

False

>>> r.match('February 28, 2001') is not None

True

>>> r.match('February 29, 2000') is not None

True

>>> r.match('April 30, 1908') is not None

True

>>> r.match('April 31, 1908') is not None

False

你可能会问,这个光荣的正则表达是什么？

>>> print result

(?:(September|April|June|November) +(0?[1-9]|[12]\d|30), *((?:19|20)\d\d))|(?:(January|March|May|July|August|October|December) +(0?[1-9]|[12]\d|3[01]), *((?:19|20)\d\d))|(?:February +(?:(?:(0?[1-9]|1\d|2[0-8]), *((?:19|20)\d\d))|(?:(29), *((?:(?:19|20)(?:04|08|12|16|20|24|28|32|36|40|44|48|52|56|60|64|68|72|76|80|84|88|92|96))|2000))))

(我最初的目的是对可能的日期做一个简洁的列举,但我基本上最终还是手写了除了4的倍数之外的全部内容.)
