## go-oniguruma
<a href="https://travis-ci.org/src-d/go-oniguruma"><img alt="Build Status" src="https://travis-ci.org/src-d/go-oniguruma.svg?branch=master" /></a>
This repository is a fork of [moovweb/rubex](https://github.com/moovweb/rubex/tree/go1) - a simple regular expression library (based on [oniguruma](https://github.com/kkos/oniguruma)) that supports Ruby's regex syntax.
The _rubex_ was originally created by Zhigang Chen (zhigang.chen@moovweb.com or zhigangc@gmail.com). It implements all the public functions of Go's Regexp package, except LiteralPrefix.
By the benchmark tests in regexp, the library is 40% to 10X faster than Regexp on all but one test. Unlike Go's regexp, this library supports named capture groups and also allow `"\\1"` and `"\\k<name>"` in replacement strings.
The library calls the _oniguruma_ regex library for regex pattern searching. All replacement code is done in Go.
### Install all (_oniguruma_ and _rubex_):
```sh
# linux (debian/ubuntu/...)
sudo apt-get install libonig-dev
# osx (homebrew)
brew install oniguruma
go install -i .
```
