exrex:tldr:1da0a
The exrex
command is a tool used to generate random strings based on a given regular expression.
In the provided command, --random
is an option used to generate a random string that matches the given regular expression. The regular expression is represented by ${regular_expression}
.
The ${regular_expression}
part should be replaced with an actual regular expression that specifies a pattern for the random string generation. For example, if you wanted to generate a random string that consists of 5 lowercase letters, the command could be:
exrex --random '[a-z]{5}'
This would generate a random string such as "abcdk". The regular expression [a-z]{5}
specifies that the string should consist of 5 lowercase letters.
The exrex
tool is commonly used in scripting or command line operations where random strings matching a specific pattern are needed.
