@openexam/regex

Regex-validated text-answer widget. The author supplies a regex pattern (anchored to ^…$ automatically) plus optional flags and a placeholder; the student's text input is graded by matching against the pattern.

What's a properly-capitalized first name?

::: response regex { pattern="[A-Z][a-z]+", placeholder="e.g. Maria" }
:::

Pattern is matched anchored: ^(?:<pattern>)$. Authors who want substring match write .*foo.*.

Allowed flags: i (case-insensitive), m (multiline), s (dotall), u (unicode). g and y are forbidden — they break .test() semantics for single-string matching.

Body must be empty in v1; the prompt prose lives before the directive in the assignment body.
