Regexp is not working for following code. Could you please correct it , if the usage of "regexp2" library is wrong?

[SaiSasankKhajjayam]

package main

import ( "fmt" "github.com/dlclark/regexp2" )

func main() { re,_ := regexp2.Compile(Deployment, 0) fmt.Println(re.MatchString(D.*)) // ExpectedOutput: true , ActualOutput: false fmt.Println(re.MatchString(D*)) // ExpectedOutput: true , ActualOutput: false fmt.Println(re.MatchString(Dep)) // ExpectedOutput: true , ActualOutput: false fmt.Println(re.MatchString(Deployment)) // ExpectedOutput: true , ActualOutput: true

}

• The patterns and the target string are inverse.
• You should quote the string with ""

package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/dlclark/regexp2"
)

func main() {
    re, _ := regexp2.Compile("D.+nt", 0)
    fmt.Println(re.MatchString("Deployment")) // true
}

Well, I suggest you to avoid using .*; consider using .+ first 😃
