A pattern that matches 0 or 1 occurrences of the inner pattern T, making it optional.

NotEnclosed

NotEscaped

Pattern that matches pattern Inner not escaped by Prefix. “escaped” here means that the pattern Inner is preceded by a Prefix that’s not preceded by itself.

Traits

IntoPattern

A trait for converting values into patterns. It exists to bridge the gap between an easy to use library & a more performant, lean implementation.

Pattern

This trait represents an object that can be matched onto a string. This includes functions, characters, [arrays of] characters, strings, but also custom patterns like NotEscaped
