Ever wished for a better way to write regular expressions? If so, today is the day this dream comes true as I present to you super-expressive!
Install the dependency, e.g. with:
deno add npm:super-expressive
Create a file, e.g. main.ts
:
import SuperExpressive from "npm:super-expressive";
const regExp = SuperExpressive()
.caseInsensitive
.allowMultipleMatches
.string("<strong>Find me!</strong>")
.toRegex();
console.log(
"Do you think you would be able to <strong>Find me!</strong>? Or Find me! So go on and <strong>Find me!</strong>".replace(
regExp,
"FOUND!"
)
);
And running the script should result in:
deno run -A ./main.ts
Do you think you would be able to FOUND!? Or Find me! So go on and FOUND!
What do you think? Is it a nicer way to write RegExps or should we still learn how to do it manually?
Liked the content and would love to have more of it all year long?
