const jsonToRegex = require('json-to-regex');
const regex = jsonToRegex('foo.*bar$');
const moreRegexes = [ 'ab?c', 'de+\\D' ].map(jsonToRegex);
const caseInsensitiveRegex = jsonToRegex([ '^hello', 'i' ]);
`

jsonToRegex(value)
Passing in a string value will result in the string being converted to a regex, e.g. '^hello.!$' => /^hello.!$/.
To set regex options such as case insensitivity, pass in an array where the first element is the regex string and the second element is the options, e.g. ['^hello.!$', 'i'] => /^hello.!$/i`
