Regex Expression for capturing a starting and ending with a group of characters

Question

I've been looking for an answer for quite a while, and i can't find it anywhere else, so I'm posting over here. I need a regex for capturing this form of expression {{{any_Name}}}. I'm looking towards capturing the starting 3 {{{ and the ending 3 }}}.

I can capture the first three with the expression \{{3}/g. But i can't figure out how to catch the last 3 }}}

Answer 1

Try this:

\{{3}[^{}]+}{3}

See live demo.

This matches:

• \{{3} is {{{
• [^{}]+ is "one or more non-brackets"
• }{3} is }}}

Note that } does not need escaping.
