Regex (Regular Expression)
Regular Expression
From the 2.3.0 version, Proxyman supports Wildcard and full-matching Regex (Regular Expression) when you define matching rules for all available tools:
- Map Local
- Map Remote
- Block & Allow List
- Breakpoints
- Protocol Buffers (Protobuf)
- Reverse Proxy
- Network Throttling
It's a handy tool to help you exactly define which requests should trigger the tool
Proxyman supports simple Wildcard characters, which include
* and ?Wildcard | Purpose |
* | The asterisk in a wildcard matches any character zero or more times. |
? | A question mark matches a single character once. |
For instance:
- http://proxyman.io/v1/*
- https://myserver.com/v?/*
Proxyman also supports Regex.
- Make sure your regex is Full Matching the URL.
- Partial Matching is considered as not matching.
- Make sure you escape characters properly: Splash (/), full-stop (.), etc.
For instance:
Regex | Matched URL Examples |
|---|---|
https:\/\/proxyman\.io.* | https://proxyman.io
https://proxyman.io/v1/data?id=123
https://proxyman.io/pricing |
^(http|https):\/\/www\.google\.com.* | http://www.google.com
http://www.google.com/user?id=proxyman
https://www.google.com |
^(http|https)?:\/\/www\.google\.com\/v[0-9]?\/build\?query=proxyman | http://www.google.com/v1/build?query=proxyman
www.google.com/v2/build?query=proxyman |
Make sure your Regex matches whole words
Please check the Regex Metacharacters, Operator and Flag from Apple Developer Documents to know which one is supported.
