8910 :: To have nre regex usage

• mardiyah (orginal) [2022-02-13T18:46:02+01:00] view original

  How is the nre regex usage from the already known re modules one, e.g. this:

  import std/re

  var

  str = "foo" m :array[3, string]

  if -1 == find( str, re( r"(f)(o*)" ), m) : echo "false"

  else:

  echo "m" & m[1]

  need to use the find one in import std/nre instead

  import std/nre var str = "foo" let mat = find( str, re( r"(f)(o*)" )) if isNone(mat): echo "false" else: echo "m" & mat.get.captures[1]

  Run

  You can discover the data type yourself using something like

  echo(type(mat))
  Run

  eventually taking advantage of wonderful Nim's playground
