Seeking assistance in optimizing a regex pattern to satisfy Sonar:

Is there a way to reduce/refactor this?

Sample:

/api/v1
/api/v1/
/api/v1//
/api/v1///
/api/v23
/api/3
/api/2
/adad/adad/1
/api/2/asd/2
/a
/

Expected match:

/api/v1
/api/v1/
/api/v23
/api/3
/adad/adad/1
/api/2/asd/2
/a
/

This is fine as is. Ignore the Sonar warnings, they are 99% useless. – Wiktor Stribiżew May 27 '22 at 08:43

Note you do not need the alternation, if the string can be empty or just contain a single `/` char, use `"^(?:/[^/?\\s]+)*/?$"` – Wiktor Stribiżew May 27 '22 at 08:47
oh that's brilliant, thanks again! – L P May 27 '22 at 08:54
