line3 <match name="item1" rhs="domain.com"></match>
line4 <match name="item2" rhs="domainn.com"></match>
line5 <match name="item2" rhs="1010data.com"></match>

need to retrive domain.com,domainn.com,1010data.com to "result.txt"

``

import re
f1 = open("C:/Users/Netskope/Desktop/m/test1.txt", "r")
f2 = open("C:/Users/Netskope/Desktop/m/result.txt", "w")
d1 = f1.readlines()
for line in d1:
    match = re.findall('<match name="item1" rhs="(\w.+")', line)
    if match in line:
    print match,
   f2.write(match)
#f1.close()   
}

TypeError: expected a character buffer object`Inline Code Example Here`

Hm, a few visible issues:

  1. Indentation of lines 8 and 9 is incorrect.
  2. match is not a string, but a match object. Line 9 should probably be f2.write(match.group(0)) (or 1 depending on what you want)
  3. Always use raw strings in regex, such as re.findall(r'...' ...). Raw strings preserve backslashes, and this is what the regex parser needs.
  4. The curly brace at line 11 is a syntax error.

It is better to use re.finditer when iterate over text and save to file.
Look like this.

import re

data = '''\
line2 jdsbvbsf
line3 <match name="item1" rhs="domain.com"></match>
line4 <match name="item2" rhs="domainn.com"></match>
line5 <match name="item2" rhs="1010data.com"></match>'''

with open('result.txt', 'w') as f_out:
    for match in re.finditer(r'rhs="(.*)"', data):
        f_out.write('{}\n'.format(match.group(1)))

'''Output-->
domain.com
domainn.com
1010data.com
'''

line5 <match name="item2" rhs="1010data.com"></match>
line6 </items>
line7 </data>

text2.txt:
line1 djshjsdf

import re

            for match in re.finditer(r'rhs="(.*)"', d1):
                for match1 in re.finditer(r'rhs="(.*)"', d2):
                    if match != match1:
                        f_out.write('{}\n'.format(match.group(1)))

while running, it could not through any error/output

what are the changes required?????
