This libary generates the {\ttfamily source} string to be passed to {\ttfamily new Reg\+Exp()} for matching a range of numbers.

{\bfseries{Example}}


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{var toRegexRange = require('to-\/regex-\/range');}
\DoxyCodeLine{var regex = new RegExp(toRegexRange('15', '95')); }

\end{DoxyCode}


A string is returned so that you can do whatever you need with it before passing it to {\ttfamily new Reg\+Exp()} (like adding {\ttfamily $^\wedge$} or {\ttfamily \$} boundaries, defining flags, or combining it another string).

Creating regular expressions for matching numbers gets deceptively complicated pretty fast.

For example, let\textquotesingle{}s say you need a validation regex for matching part of a user-\/id, postal code, social security number, tax id, etc\+:


\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item regex for matching {\ttfamily 1} =$>$ {\ttfamily /1/} (easy enough)
\item regex for matching {\ttfamily 1} through {\ttfamily 5} =$>$ {\ttfamily /\mbox{[}1-\/5\mbox{]}/} (not bad...)
\item regex for matching {\ttfamily 1} or {\ttfamily 5} =$>$ {\ttfamily /(1$\vert$5)/} (still easy...)
\item regex for matching {\ttfamily 1} through {\ttfamily 50} =$>$ {\ttfamily /(\mbox{[}1-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$\mbox{[}1-\/4\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$50)/} (uh-\/oh...)
\item regex for matching {\ttfamily 1} through {\ttfamily 55} =$>$ {\ttfamily /(\mbox{[}1-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$\mbox{[}1-\/4\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$5\mbox{[}0-\/5\mbox{]})/} (no prob, I can do this...)
\item regex for matching {\ttfamily 1} through {\ttfamily 555} =$>$ {\ttfamily /(\mbox{[}1-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$\mbox{[}1-\/9\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$\mbox{[}1-\/4\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}\{2\}$\vert$5\mbox{[}0-\/4\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$55\mbox{[}0-\/5\mbox{]})/} (maybe not...)
\item regex for matching {\ttfamily 0001} through {\ttfamily 5555} =$>$ {\ttfamily /(0\{3\}\mbox{[}1-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$0\{2\}\mbox{[}1-\/9\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$0\mbox{[}1-\/9\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}\{2\}$\vert$\mbox{[}1-\/4\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}\{3\}$\vert$5\mbox{[}0-\/4\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}\{2\}$\vert$55\mbox{[}0-\/4\mbox{]}\mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}$\vert$555\mbox{[}0-\/5\mbox{]})/} (okay, I get the point!)

The numbers are contrived, but they\textquotesingle{}re also really basic. In the real world you might need to generate a regex on-\/the-\/fly for validation.

If you\textquotesingle{}re interested in learning more about \href{http://www.regular-expressions.info/charclass.html}{\texttt{ character classes}} and other regex features, I personally have always found \href{http://www.regular-expressions.info/charclass.html}{\texttt{ regular-\/expressions.\+info}} to be pretty useful.\hypertarget{md_sfcode_node_modules_webpack_dev_server_node_modules_to_regex_range_README_autotoc_md33697}{}\doxysubsection{Heavily tested}\label{md_sfcode_node_modules_webpack_dev_server_node_modules_to_regex_range_README_autotoc_md33697}
As of April 27, 2017, this library runs \href{./test/test.js}{\texttt{ 2,783,483 test assertions}} against generated regex-\/ranges to provide brute-\/force verification that results are indeed correct.

Tests run in $\sim$870ms on my Mac\+Book Pro, 2.\+5 GHz Intel Core i7.\hypertarget{md_sfcode_node_modules_webpack_dev_server_node_modules_to_regex_range_README_autotoc_md33698}{}\doxysubsection{Highly optimized}\label{md_sfcode_node_modules_webpack_dev_server_node_modules_to_regex_range_README_autotoc_md33698}
Generated regular expressions are highly optimized\+:


\begin{DoxyItemize}
\item duplicate sequences and character classes are reduced using quantifiers
\item smart enough to use {\ttfamily ?} conditionals when number(s) or range(s) can be positive or negative
\item uses fragment caching to avoid processing the same exact string more than once

Add this library to your javascript application with the following line of code


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{var toRegexRange = require('to-\/regex-\/range'); }

\end{DoxyCode}


The main export is a function that takes two integers\+: the {\ttfamily min} value and {\ttfamily max} value (formatted as strings or numbers).


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{var source = toRegexRange('15', '95');}
\DoxyCodeLine{//=> 1[5-\/9]|[2-\/8][0-\/9]|9[0-\/5]}
\DoxyCodeLine{}
\DoxyCodeLine{var re = new RegExp('\string^' + source + '\$');}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(re.test('14')); //=> false}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(re.test('50')); //=> true}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(re.test('94')); //=> true}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(re.test('96')); //=> false }

{\bfseries{Type}}\+: {\ttfamily boolean}

{\bfseries{Deafault}}\+: {\ttfamily undefined}

Wrap the returned value in parentheses when there is more than one regex condition. Useful when you\textquotesingle{}re dynamically generating ranges.


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(toRegexRange('-\/10', '10'));}
\DoxyCodeLine{//=> -\/[1-\/9]|-\/?10|[0-\/9]}
\DoxyCodeLine{}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(toRegexRange('-\/10', '10', \{capture: true\}));}

{\bfseries{Deafault}}\+: {\ttfamily undefined}

Use the regex shorthand for {\ttfamily \mbox{[}0-\/9\mbox{]}}\+:


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(toRegexRange('0', '999999'));}
\DoxyCodeLine{//=> [0-\/9]|[1-\/9][0-\/9]\{1,5\}}

\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(toRegexRange('0', '999999', \{shorthand: true\}));}

{\bfseries{Type}}\+: {\ttfamily boolean}

{\bfseries{Default}}\+: {\ttfamily true}

This option only applies to {\bfseries{negative zero-\/padded ranges}}. By default, when a negative zero-\/padded range is defined, the number of leading zeros is relaxed using {\ttfamily -\/0$\ast$}.


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(toRegexRange('-\/001', '100'));}
\DoxyCodeLine{//=> -\/0*1|0\{2\}[0-\/9]|0[1-\/9][0-\/9]|100}
\DoxyCodeLine{}
\DoxyCodeLine{console.log(toRegexRange('-\/001', '100', \{relaxZeros: false\}));}
\DoxyCodeLine{//=> -\/0\{2\}1|0\{2\}[0-\/9]|0[1-\/9][0-\/9]|100 }

\end{DoxyCode}


$<$details$>$

{\bfseries{Why are zeros relaxed for negative zero-\/padded ranges by default?}} 

Consider the following.


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{var regex = toRegexRange('-\/001', '100'); }

\end{DoxyCode}


{\itshape Note that {\ttfamily -\/001} and {\ttfamily 100} are both three digits long}.

In most zero-\/padding implementations, only a single leading zero is enough to indicate that zero-\/padding should be applied. Thus, the leading zeros would be \char`\"{}corrected\char`\"{} on the negative range in the example to {\ttfamily -\/01}, instead of {\ttfamily -\/001}, to make total length of each string no greater than the length of the largest number in the range (in other words, {\ttfamily -\/001} is 4 digits, but {\ttfamily 100} is only three digits).

If zeros were not relaxed by default, you might expect the resulting regex of the above pattern to match {\ttfamily -\/001} -\/ given that it\textquotesingle{}s defined that way in the arguments -\/ {\itshape but it wouldn\textquotesingle{}t}. It would, however, match {\ttfamily -\/01}. This gets even more ambiguous with large ranges, like {\ttfamily -\/01} to {\ttfamily 1000000}.

Thus, we relax zeros by default to provide a more predictable experience for users.

When the {\ttfamily min} is larger than the {\ttfamily max}, values will be flipped to create a valid range\+:


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{toRegexRange('51', '29'); }

\end{DoxyCode}


Is effectively flipped to\+:


\begin{DoxyCode}{0}
\DoxyCodeLine{toRegexRange('29', '51');}
\DoxyCodeLine{//=> 29|[3-\/4][0-\/9]|5[0-\/1] }

{\bfseries{Optimizations}}

Repeating ranges are now grouped using quantifiers. rocessing time is roughly the same, but the generated regex is much smaller, which should result in faster matching.\hypertarget{md_sfcode_node_modules_webpack_dev_server_node_modules_to_regex_range_README_autotoc_md33709}{}\doxysection{Attribution}\label{md_sfcode_node_modules_webpack_dev_server_node_modules_to_regex_range_README_autotoc_md33709}
