test
This block is part of the condition group and was last modified in core v15.0.0.
test v15.0.0 Returns true if the regular expression matches the text. Mirrors JS RegExp.prototype.test().
- text required
valueText to test against.
- expression required
valueThe expression without flags.
- insensitive
conditionMakes the whole expression case-insensitive.
- multline
conditionBegin/end anchors will match the start/end of a line.
- match
condition
True when expression, compiled as a JS-flavor regex, matches anywhere in text (unanchored). Case-sensitive unless insensitive=true; multline makes ^ and $ match at line boundaries. An invalid expression outputs false; an empty expression matches everything (true).
A typical wiring for test: value feeds the text pin; convert to lowercase feeds the expression pin; the condition out pin feeds if.
Commonly used with
In production blueprints, this block is most often wired together with:
- value: feeds into this block. Simply returns the provided value.
- if: this block feeds into it. Conditional branching for values (if.. then.. else..). Selects which input value is passed through; it does not route flow.
- convert to lowercase: feeds into this block.
- === false: this block feeds into it. returns true if the boolean is not true. Despite the === false label this is a !== true test: null, 0 and any other non-true value also pass.
- trim: feeds into this block. Removes characters from both ends of a string.
