Examples:

test "testing 123! :)" // -> ['test', 'testing 123! :)']

test "\"testing these are some nice quotes!\"" // -> ['test', '"testing these are some nice quotes!\"']

Is there anyway to do this with regex in JavaScript? Perhaps it could also work with --flag=value as well!

Try it.

const exemple = `testA testB "testC testD  " testE `
const textArray = exemple
  .split(new RegExp(`("[\\s\\S]*")`, 'g'))
  .flatMap(text => text.match(`"`) ? text : text.split(`\\s+`))
