- Sat May 09, 2015 9:59 pm #17046 I think regular expression will useful in a lot of case, for example check a string is json or not. I found a regular expression for Lua on Internet http://www.inf.puc-rio.br/~roberto/lpeg/ but don't know how to add to NodeMCU. Is there any guide or tutorial about adding new module to NodeMCU?

Please see my Developer FAQ for Q&A on nodeMCU Lua before asking a question here that's already been answered. This and the other official documentation should be your first reference for developing Lua Apps

Moin,

Did you notice the lua style of regular expression? Maybe they fit your needs?
Enough for standard patterns IMHO.

Did you meant this http://lua-users.org/wiki/PatternsTutorial? There are some limitations of standard Lua.
