Hi, an we search with regex compile like expressions?

Hi,

No, this library does not support any syntax resembling regular expressions, and I have no intention for it to do so in the future.

Have you taken a look at the regex library, which supports fuzzy matching?

Thank you for the tip.

Be safe.

Regards

Prabhat

Have you taken a look at the regex https://pypi.org/project/regex/ library, which supports partial matches https://pypi.org/project/regex/#added-partial-matches-hg-issue-102?
