I am trying to get whatever comes after 'code=' from this string. How could I do this?

  • Why not parse the url with javascript instead of using a regex, and then for example use split? – The fourth bird Jul 16 '20 at 20:06

You could use

code=(.+)

See a demo on regex101.com.

In JavaScript this could be:

let string = 'http://localhost:3000/?code=85b1a3645tgreg1f54221d8d9f54923b88ade29945yttrtgdg903';
let m = string.match(/code=(.+)/);
console.log(m[1]);

But it would possibly be more straight-forward to parse the url as it is and use the query part accordingly.

str.match(/code=(.*)/)[1] will do that for you.
