javascript - Extract hashtags from complex string using regex

Question

I have a crazy string, something like:

sun #plants #!wood% ##arebaba#tey   travel#blessed    #weed das#$#F!@D!AAAA

I want to extract all "words" (also containing special characters) that begin with # or that have a space right before, taking the following as a result:

[
  'sun',
  'plants',
  '!wood%',
  'arebaba',
  'tey',
  'travel',
  'blessed',
  'weed',
  'das',
  '$',
  'F!@D!AAAA'
]

How do I get this using regex?

Answer 1

You can use match using regex: [^#s]+:

var str = 'sun #plants #!wood% ##arebaba#tey   travel#blessed    #weed das#$#F!@D!AAAA';
    
var arr = str.match(/[^s#]+/g);

console.log(arr);
