Package Exports

@stdlib/regexp-extname

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (@stdlib/regexp-extname) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

Readme

Filename Extension

Regular expression to capture a filename extension.

Installation

npm install @stdlib/regexp-extname

Usage

var reExtname = require( '@stdlib/regexp-extname' );

reExtname( [platform] )

Returns a regular expression to capture a filename extension.

var RE = reExtname();
// returns <RegExp>

RE = reExtname( 'posix' );
// returns <RegExp>

var ext = RE.exec( '/foo/bar/index.js' )[ 1 ];
// returns '.js'

RE = reExtname( 'win32' );
// returns <RegExp>

ext = RE.exec( 'C:\\foo\\bar\\index.js' )[ 1 ];
// returns '.js'

reExtname.REGEXP

Regular expression to capture a filename extension.

var bool = ( reExtname.REGEXP.toString() === reExtname().toString() );
// returns true

reExtname.REGEXP_POSIX

Regular expression to capture a POSIX filename extension.

var ext = reExtname.REGEXP_POSIX.exec( '/foo/bar/index.js' )[ 1 ];
// returns '.js'

reExtname.REGEXP_WIN32

Regular expression to capture a Windows filename extension.

var ext = reExtname.REGEXP_WIN32.exec( 'C:\\foo\\bar\\index.js' )[ 1 ];
// returns '.js'

Notes

The as REGEXP exported regular expression is platform-dependent. If the current process is running on Windows, REGEXP === REGEXP_WIN32; otherwise, REGEXP === REGEXP_POSIX.

Examples

var reExtname = require( '@stdlib/regexp-extname' );
var RE_EXTNAME = reExtname();
var ext;

// Assuming a POSIX platform...
ext = RE_EXTNAME.exec( '/foo/bar/index.js' )[ 1 ];
// returns '.js'

ext = reExtname.REGEXP_WIN32.exec( '/foo/bar/home.html' )[ 1 ];
// returns '.html'

ext = reExtname.REGEXP_WIN32.exec( 'C:\\foo\\bar\\home.html' )[ 1 ];
// returns '.html'
