PHP: How to convert a regular expression to a match example?

Question

I have a regex to match URIs. For instance,

preg_match("/^my\/uri\//i", "my/uri/whatever");

What I use for routing, for example, " http://www.mywebsite.com/my/uri/page.html " will match the above (with remote protocol / host).

Is there a way to evaluate the regex in the most common URI that will match? For instance,

"my / uri /"

Answer 1

I did not understand what you really want.

This code may be what you need:

$general_uri = 'my/uri/';
$regex = '/^' . preg_quote($general_uri) . '/i';

If you want to change the code above:

$regex = '/^my\/uri\//i';
$general_uri = str_replace('\\', '', preg_replace('/^\/\^(.*)\/i?$/', '$1', $regex));

However, the above code will not work on complex regular expressions.
