Matching groups?

[Victor Perin]

I couldn't find a way to match groups. For example:

regexifyString({
    pattern: /\[(?<id>.+)\]\{(?<name>.+)\}/g,
    decorator: (id, name) => (<item b={id} c={name} />),
    input: 'a[b]{c}',
})

// to output:
// [ 'a', <item b='b' c='c' />, '']

Is this possible?

Dear Victor, hi
I have to investigate that in the next few weeks
If you have any suggestions it would be very helpful to speed up this feature release process )

You can pass the whole result here with the third argument, the groups will be next after the 0 element of the array.

        const decoratedMatch = decorator(match, matchIndex, result);

@victorperin @G1K is this functionality still needed?

[mr G1K]

this function will definitely be useful, but it is possible to design it in a more beautiful way. My solution suits me and I'm already using it).

@G1K could you share your version?

[mr G1K]

The line from the message above is already my solution) result contains the result of exec , it will already contain named groups if it was in the regular expression.

        const decoratedMatch = decorator(match, matchIndex);
>>
        const decoratedMatch = decorator(match, matchIndex, result);

result.groups
