Regex plugin has been removed in favor of scripting. The function [regex_capture_many](https://ytdl-sub.readthedocs.io/en/latest/config_reference/scripting/scripting_functions.html#regex-capture-many) has been created to replicate the plugin's behavior. See the following converted example: `regex, now deprecated` ``` regex: from: title: match: - ".*? - (.*)" # Captures 'Song' from 'Emily Hopkins - Some - Song' capture_group_names: - "captured_track_title" capture_group_defaults: - "{title}" overrides: track_title: "{captured_track_title}" ``` `scripting equivalent` ``` overrides: # Captures 'Song' from 'Emily Hopkins - Some - Song' captured_track_title: >- { %regex_capture_many( title, [ ".*? - (.*)" ], [ title ] ) } track_title: "{%array_at(captured_track_title, 1)}" ``` ## Motivation: Regex was a unique plugin that added custom variables based on user input. This made the backend need to support both `overrides` and 'plugin user variables'. Removing `regex` plugin will consolidate this logic into only `overrides`, making it much easier to maintain. |
