[Freeswitch-users] Need help on regex

[Steven Ayre]

Yes, \d\d\d and \d{3} are equivalent... use whichever you prefer.

You can have both in a single regex, but since they won't be matched
within the same brackets they'll not be in the same variable.

^\d{3}(0\d{4})\d{2}$|^(\d{3}[1-9]\d{6})$
with a zero would be in $1, $2 will be null
and without a zero would be in $2, $1 will be null

So I can't think of a way to handle both in the same extension... You
could have both transfer to a third extension where the call is
handled though if you want to avoid duplicated actions in the
dialplan.

Unless FS supports named captures:
^\d{3}(?<num>0\d{4})\d{2}$|^(?<num>\d{3}[1-9]\d{6})$

In which case it's be stored in $num (?) in both cases, but I don't
know whether FS's implementation supports named capturing...
