Hello I have some strings named like this:
BURGERDAY / PPA / This is a burger fest
I've tried using regex to get it but I can't seem to get it right.
The output should just get the final string of This is a burger fest
(without the first whitespace)
Here, we can capture our desired output after we reach to the last slash followed by any number of spaces:
.+\/\s+(.+)
where (.+)
collects what we wish to return.
const regex = /.+\/\s+(.+)/gm;
const str = `BURGERDAY / PPA / This is a burger fest`;
const subst = `$1`;
// The substituted value will be contained in the result variable
const result = str.replace(regex, subst);
console.log(result);
Based on revo's advice, we can also use this expression, which is much better:
\/ +([^\/]*)$
According to Bohemian's advice, it may not be required to escape the forward slash, based on the language we wish to use and this would work for JavaScript:
.+/\s+(.+)
Also, we assume in target content, we would not have forward slash, otherwise we can change our constraints based on other possible inputs/scenarios.
