Matching Image URIs

Lucien Lachance · 07-30-2014, 12:24 AM

How can I properly match for both of these image links using regex? I've been able to get away with /^http:\/\/\d+/ for awhile, but I've noticed lately some blogs contain image links without digits. I've come up with this, but I would like to know if I can do this better.

Standard:
/^http:\/\/(\d+|media)/

Alternate:
%r{^http://(\d+|media)}

Here are the blog images formats:

Maybe I not entirely understand, but why not all links with images extensions:

Code:

^http://.+\.(?:jpg|jpeg|png)$
