Regular Expression Generator by using genetic alogirthm

Usage :

git clone https://github.com/maojui/Regex-Generator
cd Regex-Generator
pip install -r requirements
python server.py

The service will run on : http://localhost:8080

Example :

Above argument 12 means using testset12, which is a set of random ip address.

Our process will try to find out a regex to match all input data.

Target :
         9.136.40.77
         230.206.226.141
         178.53.157.92
         251.165.48.74
         81.89.99.152
         ...
         122.167.211.226
         53.40.30.228
         7.92.9.53
         84.40.110.26
         38.17.220.185

Result :

3796  \d{1,3}\.\d{2,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}
3639  [1-2]?[0-9]?[0-9]\.[1-2]?[0-9][0-9]\.[1-2]?[0-9]?[0-9]\.[1-9][0-9]?[1-9]?
