Regex to match a URL based up on a word

Question

I want to write a javascript regular expression to match URLs which have the word -booker in it.

URLs are generally like:

http://domain.local/htmlforms/mforms/product1-booker.html
http://domain.local/htmlforms/mforms/product2-booker.html
http://domain.local/htmlforms/mforms/product3.html
http://domain.local/htmlforms/mforms/product4.html

Thank you.

This should do it:

https?\:\/{2}[\w\.]+(\/[\w]+)+\-booker(\/[\w]+|\.[\w]+)

This will match

http with an optional s.
two forward slashes.
A word like item, or a full stop one or more times.
A forward slash or word item one or more times
-booker one time
A forward slash or word item one or more times (second time, incase -booker is in the middle, this option can be removed if needed).
A full stop and a word like character one or more times (for the file name.)

For an example, see here.

I hope this helps.

Also, please try:

/(?=https?:\/\/[^ ]+-booker[^ ]+)(.*)/g

(?=https?:\/\/[^ ]*-booker[^ ]+) is a Positive Lookahead - Assert that word -booker should be found in the url.
