react-router-dom version 5.1.2
Example route:
/user/:guid
Example guid:
2d88abfd-35a2-4481-91c9-800ecc67b346
Example route with guid regex:
/user/:guid([0-9a-f]{8}-([0-9a-f]{4}\-){3}[0-9a-f]{12})
I'm unable to get a match with the above. To test my sanity to see if basic regex paths work, I did a simple number only regex, that works fine, maybe I'm not escaping correctly?
It looks as though the pattern in the react router cannot contain inner grouping constructs.
They mention that "(?: will be allowed to be nested in the next major release."
So, probably, you will be able to use
/user/:guid([0-9a-f]{8}(?:-[0-9a-f]{4}){3}-[0-9a-f]{12})
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
If this is not implemented in your version, just repeat the pattern part you quantified:
/user/:guid([0-9a-f]{8}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[0-9a-f]{12})
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
