Hi!
I think, m{path/(\w+)?/?$} regex can solve your problem.
In general, to parse URL, you can use official regex from rfc3986 (see
Appendix B for rfc3986)
regex is
^(([^:/?#]+):)?(//([^/?#]*))?([^?#]*)(\?([^#]*))?(#(.*))?
$2 is protocol
$4 is host
$5 is path
$7 is query
$9 is fragment.
Another approach is to use some of cpan modules to parse URI.
For example, https://metacpan.org/pod/URI

Hello,
I want to match:
/path/
/path/123
/path/abc
but /path/?xxx should not be matched.
This works:
$ perl -le '$x="/path/abc"; print 1 if $x=~m{path/\w+}'
1
this works too:
$ perl -le '$x="/path/?abc"; print 1 if $x=~m{path/\w+}'
But it doesn't work for this case:
$ perl -le '$x="/path/"; print 1 if $x=~m{path/\w+}'
it expects 1 returned.
Can you help? thanks.
