Normally the dot matches any character except newlines. 

So if <code>.*</code> isn't working, set the "dot matches newlines, too" option (or use <code>(?s).*</code>). 

If you're using JavaScript, which doesn't have a "dotall" option, try <code>[\s\S]*</code>. This means "match any number of characters that are either whitespace or non-whitespace" - effectively "match any string".

Another option that only works for JavaScript (and is not recognized by any other regex flavor) is <code>[^]*</code> which also matches any string. But <code>[\s\S]*</code> seems to be more widely used, perhaps because it's more portable.

Choose &amp; memorize 1 of the following!!! :)

<pre><code>[\s\S]*
[\w\W]*
[\d\D]*
</code></pre>

Explanation:

<code>\s</code>: whitespace <code>\S</code>: not whitespace

<code>\w</code>: word <code>\W</code>: not word

<code>\d</code>: digit <code>\D</code>: not digit

(You can exchange the <code>*</code> for <code>+</code> if you want 1 or MORE characters [instead of 0 or more]).

 

BONUS EDIT:

If you want to match everything on a single line, you can use this:

<pre><code>[^\n]+
</code></pre>

Explanation:

<code>^</code>: not

<code>\n</code>: linebreak

<code>+</code>: for 1 character or more

<code>(.*?)</code> does not work for me. I am trying to match comments surrounded by <code>/* */</code>, which may contain multiple lines.

Try this:

<pre><code>([a]|[^a])

This regex matches <code>a</code> or <code>anything else expect a</code>. Absolutely, it means matching everything.

BTW, in my situation, <code>/\*([a]|[^a])*/</code> matches C style comments.

Thank @mpen for a more concise way.

For JavaScript the best and simplest answer would seem to be <code>/.\*/</code>.
As suggested by others <code>/(.*?)/</code> would work as well but <code>/.\*/</code> is simpler. The <code>()</code> inside the pattern are not needed, as far as I can see nor the ending <code>?</code> to match absolutely anything (including empty strings)
<hr />
NON-SOLUTIONS:
<ul>
<li><code>/[\s\S]/</code> does NOT match empty strings so it's not the solution.
</li>
<li><code>/[\s\S]\*/</code> DOES match also empty strings. But it has a problem: If you use it in your code then you can't comment out such code because the <code>*/</code> is interpreted as end-of-comment.
</li>
</ul>
<code>/([\s\S]\*)/</code> works and does not have the comment-problem. But it is longer and more complicated to understand than <code>/.*/</code>.

I recommend use <code>/(?=.*...)/g</code>

Example

<pre><code>const text1 = 'I am using regex';
/(?=.*regex)/g.test(text1) // true

const text2 = 'regex is awesome';
/(?=.*regex)/g.test(text2) // true

const text3 = 'regex is util';
/(?=.*util)(?=.*regex)/g.test(text3) // true

const text4 = 'util is necessary';
/(?=.*util)(?=.*regex)/g.test(text4) // false because need regex in text
</code></pre>

blocks|key|2952094|text|老实说，很多答案都是旧的，所以我发现，如果你只是简单地测试任何字符串，而不考虑字符内容，使用"/.*/i“就足够了。|type|unstyled|depth|inlineStyleRanges|entityRanges|data|2952095|entityMap^0|0^^$0|@$1|2|3|4|5|6|7|D|8|@]|9|@]|A|$]]|$1|B|3|-4|5|6|7|E|8|@]|9|@]|A|$]]]|C|$]]

Honestly alot of the answers are old so i found that if you simply just test any string regardless of character content with "/.*/i" will sufficiently get EVERYTHING.

I use this: (.|\n)+ works like a charm for me!

How do I make an expression to match absolutely anything (including whitespaces)? Example:
Regex: I bought _____ sheep.
Matches: I bought sheep. I bought a sheep. I bought five sheep.
I tried using <code>(.*)</code>, but that doesn't seem to be working.

Regular Expressions- Match Anything

如何使表达式完全匹配任何内容(包括空格)？示例：Regex:，我买了_____绵羊。Matches:我买了羊。我买了一只羊。我买了五只羊。我试过使用(.*)，但似乎不起作用。
