Regex

Regex pattern are represented as unquoted strings, in the format of r/my regex pattern/.

Regex patterns can be used with the like =~ and not like !~ comparators.

Limitations

1. Usage is limited to pattern matching for now. Value extraction will come in the future.

2. Patterns must start with r/ and end with /.

Examples

Filter for strings starting with b

["foo", "bar", "baz"].filter($this =~ r/^b/)
[
    "bar",
    "baz"
]
