Markdown Link in JS
Match Markdown links [link text](url) and capture both the display text and the URL.
Try it in the JS tester →Pattern
regexJS
\[([^\]]+)\]\(([^)]+)\) (flags: g)JavaScript / ECMAScript code
jsJavaScript
const re = new RegExp("\\[([^\\]]+)\\]\\(([^)]+)\\)", "g");
const input = "[RegexPro](https://www.regexpro.dev)";
const matches = [...input.matchAll(re)];
console.log(matches.map(m => m[0]));Uses `String.prototype.matchAll` for global iteration (Node 12+ / all modern browsers).
How the pattern works
Group 1 captures the link text inside square brackets (any chars except ]). Group 2 captures the URL inside parentheses (any chars except )).
