RegExpMatch class abstract interface

A regular expression match.

Regular expression matches are Matches. They also include the ability to retrieve the names for any named capture groups and to retrieve matches for named capture groups by name instead of by their index.

Example:

const pattern =
    r'^\[(?<Time>\s*((?<hour>\d+)):((?<minute>\d+))\.((?<second>\d+)))\]'
    r'\s(?<Message>\s*(.*)$)';

final regExp = RegExp(
  pattern,
  multiLine: true,
);

const multilineText = '[00:13.37] This is a first message.\n'
    '[01:15.57] This is a second message.\n';

RegExpMatch regExpMatch = regExp.firstMatch(multilineText)!;
print(regExpMatch.groupNames.join('-')); // hour-minute-second-Time-Message.
final time = regExpMatch.namedGroup('Time'); // 00:13.37
final hour = regExpMatch.namedGroup('hour'); // 00
final minute = regExpMatch.namedGroup('minute'); // 13
final second = regExpMatch.namedGroup('second'); // 37
final message =
    regExpMatch.namedGroup('Message'); // This is the first message.
final date = regExpMatch.namedGroup('Date'); // Undefined `Date`, throws.

Iterable<RegExpMatch> matches = regExp.allMatches(multilineText);
for (final m in matches) {
  print(m.namedGroup('Time'));
  print(m.namedGroup('Message'));
  // 00:13.37
  // This is the first message.
  // 01:15.57
  // This is the second message.
}
