Using regex to match international / unicode alphanumeric characters in javascript?

I am trying to use Javascript's string.match () function for a fairly simple task: extract all words from a string and then count the number of occurrences of each word. Regular expression:

/\w+/g

      

is great for the task, except that it cannot handle any Unicode / International characters. What's the best / cleanest way to be able to match accented characters, Cyrillic and any other major alphabets?

If it matters, I am currently coding for a Node.js framework.

XRegExp :

In comments elclanrs offered XRegExp . If you are using it, you will need the Unicode plugin and Categories 1.2.0 . This package and plugins are a robust and significant addition to JavaScript regular expressions. Then you will need to create your regex using multiple character classes because it doesn't define an equivalent \w

. Be sure to also include at least the "Mn" class of non-spacing labels, as they are commonly used to create non-English characters.

Stand-alone Unicode character type definitions:



Before knowing about XRegExp , I adapted the web version of Unicode for use in the project. Following is the implementation of the Unicode character classes. It is significantly less capable than the full XRegExp add-on, but will get the job done for the simple regex you mentioned.

You need: myRegex = new RegExp("[" + Unicode.w + "]+", "g");
