Function matchGroupsAll

Returns an array of arrays in which the first element of each array is the match and remaining elements are the capturing groups. Returns undefined if the string has no match for regex. (This is different from the built-in String.prototype.matchAll(), which returns null if there are no matches, but more consistent with the conventions in the Flurp library.)

Remarks

Returned array contains additional properties with string indices as per the underlying String.prototype.matchAll() implementation.

Example

import * as S from "flurp/string";

const xyDigits = S.matchGroups(/(\d),(\d)/g);
xyDigits("(4,6) (3, 2)");
//    [
//      ['4,6', '4', '6', index: 1, input: '(4,6) (3,2)', groups: undefined],
//      ['3,2', '3', '2', index: 7, input: '(4,6) (3,2)', groups: undefined]
//    ]
xyDigits("weasel");               // undefined

const oopsNotGlobal = S.matchGroups(/(\d),(\d)/);
oopsNotGlobal("(4,6)");           // null
