How parse a comment with custom markup to html markup using regex javascript

Question

Hay,

I'm trying to achieve the below using regex but it looks too complex.

Input: Hello, @[John Doe](600f2e41-0e31-4864-cb18-f8b255788f1c) please confirm with @[Rose Marie](600f2e41-0e33-6864-ab86-f8b255788f1c)

Output: Hello, <span>@John Doe</span> please confirm with <span>@Rose Marie</span>

Answer 1

This is the solution:

const comment = 'Hello, @[John Doe](600f2e41-0e31-4864-cb18-f8b255788f1c) please confirm with @[Rose Marie](600f2e41-0e33-6864-ab86-f8b255788f1c)';

const regex = /@\[(.*?)\]\(.*?\)/g;
return comment.replaceAll(regex, '<span>@$1</span>');
