Given string str, the task is to check whether the given string is a valid image file extension or not by using Regular Expression.
The valid image file extension must specify the following conditions:
- It should start with a string of at least one character.
- It should not have any white space.
- It should be followed by a dot(.).
- It should be end with any one of the following extensions: jpg, jpeg, png, gif, bmp.
Examples:
Input: str = “abc.png”
Output: true
Explanation:
The given string satisfy all the above mentioned conditions.
Input: str = “im.jpg”
Output: true
Explanation:
The given string satisfy all the above mentioned conditions.
Input: str = “.gif”
Output: false
Explanation:
The given string doesn’t start with image file name(required at least one character). Therefore, it is not a valid image file extension.
Approach: This problem can be solved by using regular expression.
- Get the String.
- Create a regular expression to check the valid image file extension as mentioned below:
regex = “([^\\s]+(\\.(?i)(jpe?g|png|gif|bmp))$)”;
- Where:
- ( represents the starting of group 1.
- [^\\s]+ represents the string must contain at least one character.
- ( represents the starting of group 2.
- \\. Represents the string should follow by a dot(.).
- (?i) represents the string ignore the case-sensitive.
- ( represents the starting of group3.
- jpe?g|png|gif|bmp represents the string end with jpg or jpeg or png or gif or bmp extension.
- ) represents the ending of the group 3.
- ) represents the ending of the group 2.
- $ represents the end of the string.
- ) represents the ending of the group 1.
- Match the given string with regular expression. In Java, this can be done by using Pattern.matcher().
- Return true if the given string matched with the regular expression, else return false.
Below is the implementation of the above approach:
// C++ program to validate the // image file extension using Regular Expression #include <iostream> #include <regex> using namespace std;
// Function to validate the image file extension. bool imageFile(string str)
{ // Regex to check valid image file extension.
const regex pattern( "[^\\s]+(.*?)\\.(jpg|jpeg|png|gif|JPG|JPEG|PNG|GIF)$" );
// If the image file extension
// is empty return false
if (str.empty())
{
return false ;
}
// Return true if the image file extension
// matched the ReGex
if (regex_match(str, pattern))
{
return true ;
}
else
{
return false ;
}
} // Driver Code int main()
{ // Test Case 1:
string str1 = "abc.png" ;
cout << imageFile(str1) << endl;
// Test Case 2:
string str2 = "im.jpg" ;
cout << imageFile(str2) << endl;
// Test Case 3:
string str3 = ".gif" ;
cout << imageFile(str3) << endl;
// Test Case 4:
string str4 = "abc.mp3" ;
cout << imageFile(str4) << endl;
// Test Case 5:
string str5 = " .jpg" ;
cout << imageFile(str5) << endl;
return 0;

// Compile the ReGex

// If the string is empty
