I would like to group all similar domains, not by alphabet.

    Hi, @mohammad-al-thobiti, @peterjones, @coises and All,

    @mohammad-al-thobiti, you should use the @coises’s approach, which works much better than mine !!

    In addition, in my previous post, I omitted to add the reverse regex to use, once your sort would be done :-((

    While the @coise’s method avoids any additional S/R and correctly mentions the reverse regex to run after the sort operation

    Note that I slightly Modified the first two @coises’s regexes to get more rigorous ones ( See, at the end of this post the reason for these changes )


    Thus, I would propose this road map :

    • First, from the @coises’s post, I would use this alternate regex formulation :

      • SEARCH (?x) ( [^.\r\n]+ ) \. ( [^!\r\n]+ )

      • REPLACE \2!\1

      • Click 14th times on the Replace All button

    • Run the Edit > Line Operations > Sort Lines Lexicographically Ascending option ( No [rectangular] selection is needed as you just keep the addresses )

    • Thirdly, once the sort done, from the @coises’s post, use the alternate reverse regex S/R :

      • SEARCH (?x) ( [^!\r\n]+ ) ! ( [^.\r\n]+ )

      • REPLACE \2.\1

      • Click 14th times on the Replace All button

    => You should get all your addresses back, in the right order

    Best Regards,

    guy038

    P.S. :

    @coises uses the \s class of characters, which is equivalent to any of the 25 characters, below, with the regex :

    (?x) \t | \n | \x{000B} | \x{000C} | \r | \x{0020} | \x{0085} | \x{00A0} | x{1680} | [\x{2000}-\x{200B}] |\x{2028} | \x{2029} | \x{202F} | \x{3000}

    In the highly unlikely event that one of these characters is included in some addresses, I preferred to use the [\r\n] regex, which ONLY avoids these 2 EOL chars in addresses, instead of using the \s regex !

      Thank you for your efforts, my friends.
      I would like to tell you that the result is excellent.

      But an idea came to me: why not just delete the subdomain and keep only the main domain and then delete the similar ones?
      Is there a way to delete long link extensions? And keep the main domain?

      Example:

          Hi, @mohammad-al-thobiti and All,

          May I rephrase your question ? Let’s see if we mean the same goal !

          So, for example, from the INPUT text, below :

          abc.def.ghi.jkl.example.com
          all.net
          abc.def.example.com
          abc.my_site.com
          abc.def.ghi.all.net
          my_site.com
          abc.def.all.net
          abc.def.ghi.jkl.mno.opq.my_site.com
          example.com
          

          With the following regex S/R :

          SEARCH (?x) ^ (?: [\w-]+ \. )* ( [\w-]+ \. [\w-]+ ) $

          REPLACE \1

          We would get that text :

          example.com
          all.net
          example.com
          my_site.com
          all.net
          my_site.com
          all.net
          my_site.com
          example.com
          

          Then, using the Edit > Line Operations > Remove Duplicates Lines option, we would end up with this OUTPUT :

          example.com
          all.net
          my_site.com
          

          If this is exactly what you expect to, just go ahead !

          BR

            I would like to thank you for your useful information and those who contributed to this topic.

            This article has become my reference. It works nicely. Yes, we mean the same goal !
            e1cc5900-4c79-4442-b4b0-f6e05814193c-image.png
            Right now. If you can sort or collect them from the most similar domains, please let me know.

            There are too many lines, starting with the most similar domain.

            Reason: To find the most “worried” domains because it takes many lines. I will delete them later, as you told us. However, the goal is to discover more domains with many characters or long URLs and I will block them in other programs.

            How can this be done?

              @Mohammad-Al-Thobiti said in I would like to group all similar domains, not by alphabet.:

              If you can sort or collect them from the most similar domains, please let me know.

              Here’s a way; enter:

              Find what : ^(!*([^\r\n]+))\R(!*)\2$
              Replace with : !\3\1

              and Replace All repeatedly until there are no more changes.

              Each line in the result will have an exclamation point at the beginning for each additional occurrence of the following text; so:

              argh.com
              argh.com
              asdf.net
              asdf.net
              asdf.net
              asdf.net
              ef.org
              ef.org
              ef.org
              ef.org
              ef.org
              fasde.com
              fasde.com
              fasde.com
              fasde.com
              gorch.net
              gorch.net
              gorch.net
              

              would become:

              !argh.com
              !!!asdf.net
              !!!!ef.org
              !!!fasde.com
              !!gorch.net
              

              You can then sort that to put them in order by the number of exclamation points at the beginning.

                  zip-archive.net
                  

                  and do the repeated Replace Alls, then sort, you’ll get:

                  !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!zinoiosijek031.net
                  !zindova.net
                  !zinfandelreviews.net

                  zip-archive.net
                  

                  The first line represents 25 occurrences — there are 24 leading exclamation points. Each of the next three lines represent two occurrences (one leading exclamation point). The remaining lines occurred only once.

                  Is that not what you needed to accomplish?

                    Hello, @mohammad-al-thobiti, @peterjones, @coises and All,

                    Oh, @coises, your method of finding out how many times each address occurs, is very elegant and really clever ! I’d never have thought of such sophistication on my own :-((


                    So, @mohammad-al-thobiti, starting with this INPUT file :

                    I’m using the @coises’s regex, that I slightly modified :

                    SEARCH (?x-s) ^ ( !* ( .+ ) ) \R ( !* ) \2 $

                    REPLACE !\3\1

                    • Run it several times, in order tp get the message Replace All: 0 occurrences were replaced

                    => You should get this text :

                    Now, we just add one ! character to get the exact number of occurrences of each address

                    SEARCH (?x-s) ^ (?= . )

                    SEARCH  (?x-s) ^ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (?= [^!\r\n]+ )        REPLACE  25\t
                    

                    => You should end up with this OUTPUT text :

                    Which should be a practical document to exploit !

                      @ guy038 and All,

                      Thank you my friends for the amazing results.

                      We have received the correct information. The most commonly used domains cleverly.

                      In any case, as you can see in the picture, the outcome is wonderful.

                      H8.png

                      How do I write the code like this that you mentioned:

                      SEARCH  (?x-s) ^ !                         (?= [^!\r\n]+ )        REPLACE   1\t
                      SEARCH  (?x-s) ^ !!                        (?= [^!\r\n]+ )        REPLACE   2\t
                      SEARCH  (?x-s) ^ !!!                       (?= [^!\r\n]+ )        REPLACE   3\t
                      SEARCH  (?x-s) ^ !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (?= [^!\r\n]+ )        REPLACE  25\t
                      

                      Did I write until I reached Col: 6,597? I think it is difficult and takes a lot of time. And I want to thank all of you for all your efforts on this fascinating topic.

                        @guy038 OK, I’ll take the bait… If you really want to count exclamation points:

                        Add the missing exclamation point, but also add a separator:

                        Find what : ^(!*)
                        Replace with : $1!/\t

                        Now, group by tens:

                        Find what : (!{10})+
                        Replace with : $0/

                        followed by:

                        Find what : !{10}
                        Replace with : !

                        Repeat the above two steps until the first step finds nothing.

                        Now, count the exclamation points in each digit and remove the forward slashes:

                        Find what : (?:(!{9})|(!{8})|(!{7})|(!{6})|(!{5})|(!{4})|(!{3})|(!{2})|(!{1})|())/
                        Replace with : (?{1}9)(?{2}8)(?{3}7)(?{4}6)(?{5}5)(?{6}4)(?{7}3)(?{8}2)(?{9}1)(?{10}0)

                        This assumes there are no exclamation points or forward slashes elsewhere in the text. Of course, the forward slash (/) can be replaced with any character that is not in use.

                          Hi, @mohammad-al-thobiti and All,

                          Let’s recapitulate from the very beginning !


                          If we start with this kind of INPUT text :

                          127.0.0.1   a.z.xy.dummy-hyphen.org
                          127.0.0.1   a.example.com
                          127.0.0.1   cdef.x.example.com
                          127.0.0.1   my_site.net
                          127.0.0.1   b.dummy-hyphen.org
                          127.0.0.1   b.cde.fgh.example.com
                          127.0.0.1   abc.defgji.kkkkk.my_site.net
                          127.0.0.1   cd.xyztuv.ab-cd.4567.example.com
                          127.0.0.1   dummy-hyphen.org
                          127.0.0.1   example.com
                          

                          With the following regex S/R :

                          SEARCH (?x) ^ \Q127.0.0.1 \E \h+ (?: [\w-]+ \. )* ( [\w-]+ \. [\w-]+ ) $

                          REPLACE \1

                          => We just keep the main domain ;

                          dummy-hyphen.org
                          example.com
                          example.com
                          my_site.net
                          dummy-hyphen.org
                          example.com
                          my_site.net
                          example.com
                          dummy-hyphen.org
                          example.com
                          

                          Of course, your present file deals with about 181,170 lines !

                          So, instead of using the last @coises’s method to find out the different occurrences of each line ( again, a very clever method ! ), I will simplify the goal by using a Python script to get the job done more quickly !

                          This script is an adaptation from a @alan-kilborn’s script. I named this script Count_Strings_Occurences.py

                          # -*- coding: utf-8 -*-
                          
                          '''

                          By DEFAULT, this script PASTES, in a NEW tab,   a SORTED list of ALL the STRINGS of the CURRENT file, with their NUMBER of occurrences
                          
                          IF a NORMAL selection EXISTS, the script PASTES a SORTED list of ALL the STRINGS of the SELECTION,    with their NUMBER of occurrences
                          
                          
                          NOTES : 
                          
                          - The CURRENT file processed DO NOT need to be SORTED, in any way !
                          
                          - If you want a SORTED list of ALL the LINES  with their NUMBER of occurrences, don't FORGET to INCLUDE all the POSSIBLE chars of the lines in the REGEX !
                          
                              For example, if file may contain the line 'zip-archive.net', the REGEX, after editor.research, should be  r'[\w.-]+', which includes the DOT and the DASH !

                          Note that I suppose that the IPV4 addresses and the sub-domains were previously deleted

                          => At once, a new tab will open with all the results :

                          zindova.net....................................... 26

                          ziph.net.......................................... 16
                          

                          Note that the entries are sorted by the line contents, to easily access any of these !

                          • Thus, do a zero-length RECTANGULAR selection of all the numbers of this new tab, at column 52

                          • Run the Edit > Line Operations > Sort Lines As Integers Descending option

                          => You should get your expected OUTPUT :

                          Here you are !


                          • Proceed, in the same way, with your present file

                          • Switch to your file tab ( selection and sort are not required )

                          • Run again the Plugins > Python Script > Scripts > Count_Strings_Occurrences.py Python script

                          • In the opened new tab, do a zero-length RECTANGULAR selection of all the numbers, at column 52

                          • Run the Edit > Line Operations > Sort Lines As Integers Descending option

                          Bingo !

                            Hello @ guy038 & All

                            Thank you. everything is ok, I need to add more than one domine to the Find what:

                            as you can see
                            5c203023-6172-4dfa-ad8b-8e404222160d-image.png
                            this is the code:

                            \.real-news-online.com, myvnc.com, 1example.com, 2example.com\s
                            

                            is this the correct method?
                            How can I do this?

                                      @Mohammad-Al-Thobiti said in I would like to group all similar domains, not by alphabet.:

                                      How can I do this?

                                      At some point, you need to take the lessons you’ve been taught through the dozens of regexes that people have handed you throughout this discussion, and try to figure it out yourself.

                                      Please note: This Community Forum is not a data transformation service; you should not expect to be able to always say “I have data like X and want it to look like Y” and have us do all the work for you. If you are new to the Forum, and new to regular expressions, we will often give help on the first one or two data-transformation questions, especially if they are well-asked and you show a willingness to learn; and we will point you to the documentation where you can learn how to do the data transformations for yourself in the future. But if you repeatedly ask us to do your work for you, you will find that the patience of usually-helpful Community members wears thin. The best way to learn regular expressions is by experimenting with them yourself, and getting a feel for how they work; having us spoon-feed you the answers without you putting in the effort doesn’t help you in the long term and is uninteresting and annoying for us.

                                          Hi, @mohammad-al-thobiti and All,

                                          Again, I’m going to simplify the problem, using a Python script, called Replacements_Lists.py, listed below :

                                          
                                          '''
                                          
                                          Refer to : https://community.notepad-plus-plus.org/topic/19889/
                                          
                                          
                                          - Given TWO files :
                                          
                                          - A MAIN one, located in the MAIN view, containing a LIST of strings or lines
                                          
                                          - A SECOND one, located in the SECONDARY view, containing :
                                          
                                              - A LIST of strings to REPLACE, EACH followed with a TABULATION and its CORRESPONDING replacement string
                                          
                                          
                                          This script replaces EACH expression of the MAIN file by the CORRESPONDING replacement string, found in the SECONDARY file
                                          
                                          
                                          NOTES :
                                          
                                          - The REPLACEMENT strings may be ABSENT IF you do NOT write anything AFTER the TABULATION separator. Thus, these SPECIFIC searched strings will be DELETED
                                          
                                          - The strings of the MAIN file, NOT found in the SECONDARY file, are simply REWRITTEN
                                          
                                          - The LEADING strings of the SECONDARY file, NOT found in the MAIN file, are simply NOT used
                                          
                                          - The list of the DIFFeRENT ranges < SEARCHED string > \t < REPLACEMENT string > must END with a FINAL line-break or NOTHING else ( \z )
                                          
                                          '''
                                          
                                          from Npp import editor1, editor2
                                          
                                          replacements = dict(line.split('\t') for line in editor2.getText().splitlines() if line)
                                          
                                          def replace_with(m):
                                              try:
                                                  r = replacements[m.group()]
                                              except KeyError:
                                                  r = m.group()
                                              return r
                                          
                                          editor1.rereplace('(?-s).+', replace_with)
                                          

                                          So, just follow this road map :

                                          • Open your entire file containing all your records ( about 181,170 ) in the main view

                                          • Open your file containing the 1.027 lines, whose all the occurrences must be deleted in the main file

                                          • Move this file in the secondary view ( IMPORTANT )

                                          I suppose that these two files ONLY contains main domain names, one per line

                                          Run the Edit > Blank operations > Trim Leading and Trailing Space option for the two files

                                          • Now, in the secondary view, use this regex S/R :

                                            • SEARCH (?<=.)$

                                            • REPLACE \t

                                          in order to produce a correct replacement list for some domain’s names by nothing

                                          • Move back to your file in the main view

                                          • Run the Plugins > Python Script > Scripts > Replacements_List.py option

                                          => Immediately, all the lines, of the main view, which match one of the lines of the secondary view, have been replaced with an empty line

                                          • Run the Edit > Line Operations > Remove Empty Lines

                                          • Finally save your uptaded file, in the main view

                                          Voilà !

                                          Best Regards,

                                          guy038
