go-oniguruma
This repository is a fork of moovweb/rubex - a simple regular expression library (based on oniguruma) that supports Ruby's regex syntax.
The rubex was originally created by Zhigang Chen (zhigang.chen@moovweb.com or zhigangc@gmail.com). It implements all the public functions of Go's Regexp package, except LiteralPrefix.
By the benchmark tests in regexp, the library is 40% to 10X faster than Regexp on all but one test. Unlike Go's regexp, this library supports named capture groups and also allow "\\1" and "\\k<name>" in replacement strings.
The library calls the oniguruma regex library for regex pattern searching. All replacement code is done in Go.
Install all (oniguruma and rubex):
# linux (debian/ubuntu/...)
sudo apt-get install libonig-dev
# osx (homebrew)
brew install oniguruma
go install -i .
