Generate matching strings from regular expressions.
$ npm install rexer [-g]rex <pattern[, pattern[, ...]]>var rex = require('rexer');
var matches = rex(pattern[, pattern[, ...]]);Arguments are automatically concatenated, so rex a b is equivalent to rex ab. The same applies when used as a module.
- literals,
$ rex "abcd"
["abcd"]- character sets
$ rex "[a-c][0-2]"
["a0","a1","a2","b0","b1","b2","c0","c1","c2"]- and alternations.
$ rex "(hi|bye) world"
["hi world","bye world"]- quantifiers,
- special characters,
- backreferences (?)
- and lookaheads (?).
