Extract email addresses from string and store them in a list - oslosurfer - Nov-24-2019
How can I extract email addresses from a string and store them in a list? The following code produces the desired output when printed in the for loop, but I am not sure how to store them in one accessible list.
text = 'Emails: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]' text = text.split() for word in text: if '@' in word: emails = word emails = emails.replace(',', '') emails = emails.split() print(emails)
Output:['[email protected]']
['[email protected]']

Little bit refactored with usage of list comprehension: 'give me chunk without ending comma for every chunk in list of chunks from text if chunk contains @'.
>>> text = 'Emails: [email protected], [email protected], [email protected]' >>> [chunk.rstrip(',') for chunk in text.split() if '@' in chunk] ['[email protected]', '[email protected]', '[email protected]']
