@MadeInGermany: Why should multiple / repeated "Pattern Substitution" not work on simple strings? No loop needed. With the variables as defined in post #16 (and falling back to bash and it's extglob / extended pattern matching):


Code:
echo "${NAMES//@(${EXCLUDE_NAMES//$'\n'/|})}"

You may apply another expansion to remove duplicate separators.

Mojolicious::Routes::Pattern implements the following attributes. "defaults" my $defaults = $pattern->defaults; $pattern = $pattern->defaults({foo => 'bar'}); Default parameters. "format" my $regex = $pattern->format; $pattern = $pattern->format($regex); Compiled regex for format matching. "pattern" my $pattern = $pattern->pattern; $pattern = $pattern->pattern('/(foo)/(bar)'); Raw unparsed pattern. "quote_end" my $quote = $pattern->quote_end; $pattern = $pattern->quote_end(']'); Character indicating the end of a quoted placeholder, defaults to ")". "quote_start" my $quote = $pattern->quote_start; $pattern = $pattern->quote_start('['); Character indicating the start of a quoted placeholder, defaults to "(". "regex" my $regex = $pattern->regex; $pattern = $pattern->regex($regex); Pattern in compiled regex form. "relaxed_start" my $relaxed = $pattern->relaxed_start; $pattern = $pattern->relaxed_start('*'); Character indicating a relaxed placeholder, defaults to "#". "reqs" my $reqs = $pattern->reqs; $pattern = $pattern->reqs({foo => qr/w+/}); Regex constraints. "symbol_start" my $symbol = $pattern->symbol_start; $pattern = $pattern->symbol_start(':'); Character indicating a placeholder, defaults to ":". "symbols" my $symbols = $pattern->symbols; $pattern = $pattern->symbols(['foo', 'bar']); Placeholder names.

"new" my $pattern = Mojolicious::Routes::Pattern->new('/:action'); my $pattern = Mojolicious::Routes::Pattern->new('/:action', action => qr/w+/); my $pattern = Mojolicious::Routes::Pattern->new(format => 0); Construct a new pattern object. "match" my $result = $pattern->match('/foo/bar'); my $result = $pattern->match('/foo/bar', 1); Match pattern against entire path, format detection is disabled by default. "parse" $pattern = $pattern->parse('/:action'); $pattern = $pattern->parse('/:action', action => qr/w+/); $pattern = $pattern->parse(format => 0); Parse a raw pattern. "render" my $path = $pattern->render({action => 'foo'}); my $path = $pattern->render({action => 'foo'}, 1); Render pattern into a path with parameters, format rendering is disabled by default. "shape_match" my $result = $pattern->shape_match($path); my $result = $pattern->shape_match($path, 1); Match pattern against path and remove matching parts, format detection is disabled by default.
