@robinpath/regex

Regular expression operations for pattern matching, searching, and replacing

Why use this module?

The regex module lets you:

• Test if a string matches a regular expression pattern
• Find the first match of a pattern in a string
• Find all matches of a pattern in a string
• Replace matches of a pattern in a string
• Split a string by a regular expression pattern

All functions are callable directly from RobinPath scripts with a simple, consistent API.
