Regex question for ScriptRunner

Hadas_y0lqk4

Is there a way to set regex to change "word" with "phrase" but not if "*word*" is there?

I mean, can we change the 'word' only if it is not part of a bigger word?

I want to bold a word so looking for "Expected" to change into "*Expected*" but I don't want to change if the word is already bolded.

Thanks for whoever answers

@Vikrant Yadav I noticed you understand regex pretty well. Do you know if this is possible or not?

Hi @Hadas Using following regex you can validate the letter between asterisk *letter* or not. If *vikrant* is written then it's true otherwise it's false.

Regex code :- \*.*?\*(?!\.\S)

You can test the code here :- https://regex101.com/

Let me know, if this regex not working as per your expectation.

Thanks

@Hadas if you using JIRA Cloud, it's better to use Project automation instead of scriptrunner.

But still I'd need regex there right?

The problem is I don't know how to replace a string if it is does not part of a bigger pattern.

How would you replace the following text in the issue description?

expected: bla bla and Exptected: bla bla

with

Exptected: bla bla and Exptected: bla bla
