Regex to extract Twitter handles from post

esboyles

Searching high and low for a regex to use with a Generate Attributes operator to pull @handle from twitter posts.

Anyone have an efficient and accurate expression that can do that?

Note, there might be multiple @handles so I want them all.

Many thanks.

I do all that within Text Processing as part of the tokenization, but if you want to extract to do it on a tweet level I would use one of the Replace type operators with a capturing group.
