RegEx to extract all matches from string using RegExp.exec

by

Continue calling re.exec(s) in a loop to obtain all the matches:

var re = /\s*([^[:]+):\"([^"]+)"/g;
var s="[description:"aoeu" uuid:"123sth"]";
var m;

do {
    m = re.exec(s);
    if (m) {
        console.log(m[1], m[2]);
    }
} while (m);
