Usage

Generating a RegExp

import com.medina.juan.regexp.dsl.regexp

fun main() {
    val reg = regexp {        
        literal("foo")
        maybe("bar")    
        zeroOrMore{
            character()
        }        
    }

    println(reg.matches("foo"))         // true
    println(reg.matches("fooooo"))      // true
    println(reg.matches("foobar"))      // true
    println(reg.matches("foobarrrr"))   // true
    println(reg.matches("bar"))         // false
} 

Generating a pattern

import com.medina.juan.regexp.dsl.pattern

fun main() {
    val ptn = pattern {        
        literal("foo")
        maybe("bar")    
        zeroOrMore{
            character()
        }        
    }

    println(ptn) // foo(?:bar)?.*     
}

class ValidateName : DslValidator({
    literal("foo")
    maybe("bar")
    zeroOrMore {
        character()
    }
})

@Constraint(validatedBy = [ValidateName::class])
annotation class ValidName(
    val message: String = "name is not valid",
    val groups: Array<KClass<*>> = [],
    val payload: Array<KClass<*>> = []
