Can someone help me in writing regular expression to match such kind of string
Rules are:
Examples:
nl/abc/contact --> allowed
nl/contact --> allowed
nl/abc/def/contact --> not allowed
nl/abc/contact/mno --> allowed
nl/abc/contactmno/ ---> not allowed
I tried writing one ("^nl(.?)/contact(.)$"), but it has a problem that it allows any number of slashes between nl and contact wheras I just want at max one slash in between
I would use:
^nl(?:/[^/]+)?/contact(?:/[^/]+)*$
This pattern says to match:
^ from the start of the path
nl starts with "nl"
(?:/[^/]+)? any zero or one path parameter following
/contact /contact
(?:/[^/]+)* followed by zero or more other path parameters
$ end of the input
