Exclusion Trigger (Reverese Trigger?)

[Dakhor]

Hello

I have been trying to think about how to do a simple trigger that catches all but the said parameters.

Lets say I want to catch all lines with ".* says:" and do something with them.

except anything that starts with

The .* guard says:
The .* knight says:

My mind keeps going at some database search function but maybe there is an easier way.

Cheers

DaK

I had that issue a short while ago and I think it can be done with negative non-capture groups - have a play on https://regex101.com/ with this:

Code: Select all

^.*(?!(knight |guard ))says:.*
