Default Archive extraction and blacklist patterns

I have set the entry "4SJ" solely as archive extraction blacklist pattern and downloaded a rar archive which contains a file "4SJ" without any extension. During extraction of that archive I get a file named "4SJ" from the archive created in extraction folder.

Using a blacklist pattern as for example ".*\.txt$" results in excluding all files with suffix ".txt" from extraction, so far my setting looks to be correct.

Does the archive extraction blacklist patterns only apply to files with some suffixes like ".txt" or ".jpg" and not to files without any suffix?

How can I achieve that the file "4SJ" is skipped during extraction?

Sorry, that does not the trick - the file named "4SJ" is extracted nevertheless.
  • What is the double backslash for? There is no single backslash in the filename which should be reflected in the RE.
  • Does the setting only apply to newly downloaded and extracted archives?
  • Perhaps the setting is different in Windows and Raspberry Pi jDownloader?

The pattern matches only files named '4SJ' without any extension.

Code:
regex101.com/r/yZCi1w/1

Pattern should match the whole filepath and not just the file name. \\ will match the the path separator, which will always precede the file name in the path.

The blacklist is applied to all archives at the time of extraction. Files matching the pattern will not be extracted.

Platform should not make any difference.

@jogol: Is the file in root folder or subfolder inside the Archive?
try
Quote:
(^|.*/)4SJ$
or provide links(password) to archive for testing

Thanks for the example via regex101.com. This is exactly what I want and tried to explain.

I thought a match anywhere in the file(path)name would be enough to trigger skipping this file. Matching the whole filepath name in blacklist patterns was new for me - that resembles some other settings in the past which did not work :-)

On Raspberry Pi, which is Linux, the mentioned pattern does not trigger file skipping because of different path separator as compared to Windows. When I use
Code:
.*\/4SJ$
instead of your suggestion file skipping works on Raspberry Pi. Your suggestion works indeed only on Windows, but unfortunately I tried to solve this problem on Raspberry Pi :-/.

So platform makes a difference as far as I can see. One single pattern matching both on Raspberry Pi AND Windows at the same time would be for example the following:
Code:
.*[\/\\]4SJ$

Jiaz, the file is in a subfolder inside the archive, your suggestion would be needed only when the file is in the root folder. In this case there is no path separator in front of the file name and the caret for denoting the beginning of the string would be necessary.

So my conclusion for matching all said details so far would be to use a pattern like:
Code:
(^|.*[\/\\])4SJ$

Many thanks to all suggestions and I think my problem is solved now in a more general way than I thought of in the beginning.

You don't have to escape the /, pattern should work with
Quote:
(^|.*[/\\])4SJ$
You only have to escape the / on the regex101 because there are minor differences between different regex engines

You are right escaping the / is not needed - one char saved:)
Thanks!
