RegEx pattern not asserting true
2
I am trying to compare the below string to a regular expression pattern in my java project:
2018-11-12 12:02:04.075
I've passed the above string into an online regular expression generator to generate the following pattern:
((?:2|1)d3(?:-|/)(?:(?:0[1-9])|(?:1[0-2]))(?:-|/)(?:(?:0[1-9])|(?:[1-2][0-9])|(?:3[0-1]))(?:T|s)(?:(?:[0-1][0-9])|(?:2[0-3])):(?:[0-5][0-9]):(?:[0-5][0-9]))
Below is my ASSERT statement, but when I run this test I get an assertion error:
assertTrue(rs.getString(this.columnName).matches("((?:2|1)\d3(?:-|\/)(?:(?:0[1-9])|(?:1[0-2]))(?:-|\/)(?:(?:0[1-9])|(?:[1-2][0-9])|(?:3[0-1]))(?:T|\s)(?:(?:[0-1][0-9])|(?:2[0-3])):(?:[0-5][0-9]):(?:[0-5][0-9]))"));
What changes do I need to make to get this test to pass? Is it a problem with my regex?

I don't know the defaults for Java'smatchesmethod but are you sure it isn't trying to match the whole string?

This seems a lot more complicated than just using a DateTimeFormatter. For that matter, why not define your database column as a datetime or timestamp column?

I think this is improved. While the specific text did not specify a year range, the OP's attempt was to try to limit the possible validity, so it seems appropriate to keep close to what the OP at least attempted.

@KevinO the question was to match a specific date-time format, which used "-" as separator, and did not specify year range, though I've limited it upon your suggestion

I think this is improved. While the specific text did not specify a year range, the OP's attempt was to try to limit the possible validity, so it seems appropriate to keep close to what the OP at least attempted.
