javascript – match string against the array of regular expressions

by

Using a more functional approach, you can implement the match with a one-liner using an array function:

ECMAScript 6:

const regexList = [/apple/, /pear/];
const text = "banana pear";
const isMatch = regexList.some(rx => rx.test(text));

ECMAScript 5:

var regexList = [/apple/, /pear/];
var text = "banana pear";
var isMatch = regexList.some(function(rx) { return rx.test(text); });
