First occurence in Regex

[Sim4n6]

Hi, is there a possibility to use regex_replace() to replace the first occurrence of a single character ?

I mean can we have a count=1 like in python

replaced_string = re.sub(regex, replacement, source, count=1)

Nice suggestion! Currently, we are leveraging Java's regex matching under the hood to enable regex matching, but we can definitely look into adding more complex arguments.

Would you please be able to provide examples of what use cases you'd expect to use this functionality in?

sure, I would like to replace the first occurrence of the dot for Origin bypass.

https://subdomain.example.com ===> https://subdomainXexample.com

Any workaround that comes to your mind, please?

Rather hacky but you could match on the full URL. I.e. something like regex match "(http(s):.*)\.(.*)\.com" and use matching groups to recreate the same URL without the first dot in. Alternatively, you could use a negative lookahead in the match.

It took me a while to figure out how. Very hacky way indeed.

I believe this is an interesting feature request for BChecks.

Thank you @A-J-C
