Hi, I was working with naming-convention recently. I was trying to remove an object prop
___typename
from a rule. From the documentation at the time it wasn't entirely clear (to me) what theregex
property should take:let re = "/ab+c/i";
// literal notationlet re = "ab+c"
// something to be passed into RegExpThis is important because for example
new RegExp('/typename/') === '//typename//'
and not"/typename/"
Also, I think that the args that RegExp is taking changes slightly in ES6?
I've proposed a small docs change.
Thanks!
