Optimizing non-sequential parsing of information extracted from machine-readable codes

A computer-implemented method, comprising:

• receiving, by a computing system comprising one or more processor devices via an application programming interface (API), object information from a requesting computing device, wherein the object information is:
• (a) extracted from a machine-readable code associated with the object;
• or
• (b) derived from information extracted from the machine-readable code associated with the object;
• performing, by the computing system, a non-sequential parsing process to the object information to identify one or more data elements comprising one or more values and one or more field identifiers for one or more fields of a plurality of unique fields, wherein the one or more field identifiers comprise one or more encoded values that identify the one or more fields, and wherein performing the non-sequential parsing process comprises:
• applying, by the computing system, a plurality of regular expressions to the object information to identify the one or more values, wherein each of the plurality of regular expressions is configured to identify values for at least one field of the plurality of unique fields, wherein applying the plurality of regular expressions to the object information comprises:
• applying a first regular expression to the encoded sequence of values to identify a first value of a first field from a first segment of the encoded sequence of values, wherein the first regular expression is configured to identify values for the first field;
• and
• applying a second regular expression to the encoded sequence of values to identify a second value of a second field from a second segment of the encoded sequence of values, wherein the second regular expression is configured to identify values for the second field, and wherein the second segment occurs prior to the first segment within the encoded sequence of values;
• and
• storing, by the computing system for each of the one or more values, a data object that comprises the value and information indicative of the field for the value.

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media that store instructions that, when executed by one or more processors of a computing system, cause the one or more processors to perform operations, the operations comprising:

• receiving, via an application programming interface (API), object information from a requesting computing device, wherein the object information is:
• (a) extracted from a machine-readable code associated with the object;
• or
• (b) derived from information extracted from the machine-readable code associated with the object;
• performing a non-sequential parsing process to the object information to identify one or more data elements comprising one or more values and one or more field identifiers for one or more fields of a plurality of unique fields, wherein the one or more field identifiers comprise one or more encoded values that identify the one or more fields, and wherein performing the non-sequential parsing process comprises:
• applying a plurality of regular expressions to the object information to identify the one or more values, wherein each of the plurality of regular expressions is configured to identify values for at least one field of the plurality of unique fields, wherein applying the plurality of regular expressions to the object information comprises:
• applying a first regular expression to the encoded sequence of values to identify a first value of a first field from a first segment of the encoded sequence of values, wherein the first regular expression is configured to identify values for the first field;
• and
• applying a second regular expression to the encoded sequence of values to identify a second value of a second field from a second segment of the encoded sequence of values, wherein the second regular expression is configured to identify values for the second field, and wherein the second segment occurs prior to the first segment within the encoded sequence of values;
• and
• storing, for each of the one or more values, a data object that comprises the value and information indicative of the field for the value.
