将单词引号的文本拆分为不是单词的一部分

Question

我想要一个正则表达式，它将单引号包围的文本提取到数组中。例如，此正则表达式将提取括号之间的文本：

string = "(Well!) thought Alice to herself, (after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!)"
string.scan(/\((?>[^\(\)\\]+|\\{2}|\\.)*\)/)
# => ["(Well!)", "(after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!)"] 

我想用单引号做同样的事情。我需要忽略a-z或A-Z范围内的字符前面和后面的单引号（如同它是收缩的一部分而不用作引号）。

string = "'Well!' thought Alice to herself, 'after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!'"
# => ["'Well!'", "'after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!'"] 

我试过了：

string.scan(/'(?>[^'\\]+|\\{2}|\\.)*'/)
# => ["'Well!'", "'after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'", "'t say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!'"] 

Answer 1

string.scan(/(?<![a-zA-Z])'(?:[^']|'[a-zA-Z])*'(?![a-zA-Z])/)
# =>
# [
#    "'Well!'",
#    "'after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!'"
# ]

Answer 2

string = "'Well!' thought Alice to herself, 'after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!'"

p string.scan(/\B'.*?'\B/) #=> ["'Well!'", "'after such a fall as this, I shall think nothing of tumbling down stairs! How brave they'll all think me at home! Why, I wouldn't say anything about it, even if I fell off the top of the house!'"]

Answer 3

我建议你这个正则表达式

'[^']+'
