🌸 NAME 🌸

Path::Dispatcher::Rule::Regex — the predicate is a regular expression 💅

🎀 VERSION 🎀

version 1.08

🦋 SYNOPSIS 🦋

my $rule = Path::Dispatcher::Rule::Regex->new(
    regex => qr{^/comment(s?)/(\d+)$},
    block => sub { display_comment(shift->pos(2)) },
);

literally that's the whole vibe. you build a rule, you hand it a regex, you hand it a block, and it goes 🏃‍♀️✨

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

Rules of this class use a regular expression to match against the path. that's it, that's the whole thing, it ate and left no crumbs 👑

🌈 ATTRIBUTES 🌈

⭐ regex ⭐

The regular expression to match against the path. It works just as you'd expect! iconic behavior honestly.

The capture variables ($1, $2, etc) will be available in the match object as ->pos(1) etc. so like, you match (\d+) and then you can pull it back out with ->pos(2) — slay 🫶

⚠️ but bestie, listen: $` , $&, and $' are not restored. that's just how it is. no cap.
