## Install
|
|
|
|
Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
|
|
|
|
```sh
|
|
$ npm install --save to-regex
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Usage
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var toRegex = require('to-regex');
|
|
|
|
console.log(toRegex('foo'));
|
|
//=> /^(?:foo)$/
|
|
|
|
console.log(toRegex('foo', {negate: true}));
|
|
//=> /^(?:(?:(?!^(?:foo)$).)*)$/
|
|
|
|
console.log(toRegex('foo', {contains: true}));
|
|
//=> /(?:foo)/
|
|
|
|
console.log(toRegex(['foo', 'bar'], {negate: true}));
|
|
//=> /^(?:(?:(?!^(?:(?:foo)|(?:bar))$).)*)$/
|
|
|
|
console.log(toRegex(['foo', 'bar'], {negate: true, contains: true}));
|
|
//=> /^(?:(?:(?!(?:(?:foo)|(?:bar))).)*)$/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Options
|
|
|
|
### options.contains
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `Boolean`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `undefined`
|
|
|
|
Generate a regex that will match any string that _contains_ the given pattern. By default, regex is strict will only return true for exact matches.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var toRegex = require('to-regex');
|
|
console.log(toRegex('foo', {contains: true}));
|
|
//=> /(?:foo)/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### options.negate
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `Boolean`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `undefined`
|
|
|
|
Create a regex that will match everything except the given pattern.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var toRegex = require('to-regex');
|
|
console.log(toRegex('foo', {negate: true}));
|
|
//=> /^(?:(?:(?!^(?:foo)$).)*)$/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### options.nocase
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `Boolean`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `undefined`
|
|
|
|
Adds the `i` flag, to enable case-insensitive matching.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var toRegex = require('to-regex');
|
|
console.log(toRegex('foo', {nocase: true}));
|
|
//=> /^(?:foo)$/i
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Alternatively you can pass the flags you want directly on [options.flags](#options.flags).
|
|
|
|
### options.flags
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `String`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `undefined`
|
|
|
|
Define the flags you want to use on the generated regex.
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
var toRegex = require('to-regex');
|
|
console.log(toRegex('foo', {flags: 'gm'}));
|
|
//=> /^(?:foo)$/gm
|
|
console.log(toRegex('foo', {flags: 'gmi', nocase: true})); //<= handles redundancy
|
|
//=> /^(?:foo)$/gmi
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### options.cache
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `Boolean`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `true`
|
|
|
|
Generated regex is cached based on the provided string and options. As a result, runtime compilation only happens once per pattern (as long as options are also the same), which can result in dramatic speed improvements.
|
|
|
|
This also helps with debugging, since adding options and pattern are added to the generated regex.
|
|
|
|
**Disable caching**
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
toRegex('foo', {cache: false});
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### options.safe
|
|
|
|
**Type**: `Boolean`
|
|
|
|
**Default**: `undefined`
|
|
|
|
Check the generated regular expression with [safe-regex](https://github.com/substack/safe-regex) and throw an error if the regex is potentially unsafe.
|
|
|
|
**Examples**
|
|
|
|
```js
|
|
console.log(toRegex('(x+x+)+y'));
|
|
//=> /^(?:(x+x+)+y)$/
|
|
|
|
// The following would throw an error
|
|
toRegex('(x+x+)+y', {safe: true});
|
|
```
