Create a new regular expression to use in webfakes routes

Source: R/path.R

Note that webfakes uses PERL regular expressions.

new_regexp(x)

Arguments

x

String scalar containing a regular expression.

Value

String with class webfakes_regexp.

Details

As R does not have data type or class for regular expressions, you can use new_regexp() to mark a string as a regular expression, when adding routes.
