Create a regular expression to match big numbers

I get a response from the backend as text in which I have to find a match for numbers which is minimum 16 digits in length.

Let's say I have data something like this:

{"BIG_INT": 123456789012345675,"BIG_INT_ARRAY_SINGLE": [123456789012345676],"BIG_INT_ARRAY_MULTIPLE": [123456789012345661,12345678901234562,12345678901234563,12345678901234564],"STRING_BIG_INT_ARRAY": "[12345678901234567,12345678901234567, 12345678901234567,12345678901234567]","STRING_BIG_INT":"12345678901234567","BIG_INT_FLOATING_DECIMAL": 12345678901234567.76543210987654321}

There are certain conditions where it should not match a number:

  1. If the number is enclosed within double quotes:
    ("STRING_BIG_INT":"12345678901234567")`
  2. If the numbers are within string enclosed array:
    "STRING_BIG_INT_ARRAY":"[12345678901234567,12345678901234567]"
  3. If the number is fractional:
    "BIG_INT_FLOATING_DECIMAL":12345678901234567.76543210987654321

Conditions where it should match a number:

  1. If it's an integer "BIG_INT": 123456789012345675, here value 123456789012345675 should get matched.
  2. If it's inside an array "BIG_INT_ARRAY_MULTIPLE":[123456789012345678,123456789012345678] here these two numbers should be matched separately.

I tried this regular expression -> (:\s*)([\[])?(\d{16,})(\s*)([,\}\]])

One con in this expression is if we have a array of numbers "test":[12345678901234567,1236543858688483444,26531562351351374343], here my expression only matches the first number. I wanted to match all the numbers inside the array if the array is not enclosed by double quotes.

After matching all numbers, I have code like this to replace numbers to a BigInteger formate(Ex:"16536235653725645345n") and I extract the value part of it and convert the number to a BigInteger.

const bigNumsRegExp = new RegExp(/(:\s*)([\[])?(\d{16,})(\s*)([,\}\]])/g);
`const serializedData = data.replace(bigNumsRegExp, '$1$2"$3n"$4$5');`

So I only wanted a regular Expression which match numbers only from BIG_INT,BIG_INT_ARRAY_SINGLE and BIG_INT_ARRAY_MULTIPLE

Any help from anyone is appreciated.

Thanks

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? [closed]

Where and how is this Laravel kernel constructor called? public fucntion __construct(Application $app, $Router $roouter) { } I have read the documentation and some online tutorial but I can find any clear explanation. I am learning Laravel and I am wondering where does this kernel constructor receives its arguments from. "POSTMOTERM" CLARIFICATION: Here is more clarity.I have checked the boostrap/app.php and it is only used for boostrapping the interfaces into the container class. What is not clear to me is where and how the Kernel class is instatiated and the arguments passed to the object calling the constructor.Something similar to; obj = new kernel(arg1,arg2) or, is the framework using some magic functions somewhere? Special gratitude to those who burn their eyeballs and brain cells on this trivia before it goes into a full blown menopause alias "MARKED AS DUPLICATE". To some of the itchy-finger keyboard warriors, a.k.a The mods,because I believe in th...
