Hello all,

I am programming a caching service in python and I want to allow people to declare the content of interest that should be cached. I am trying to allow this using regex, so can I get some help with :

a) what's the regex that says cache everything in a domain if the request comes as
{“expr”:http://site.com/*}
(i am guessing that * is not correct)

b) the regex that says cache everything from site.com that is mp4
{“expr”:http://site.com/*.mp4}

c) the regex that says cache everything that is mp4
{“expr”:http://*/*.mp4}


I am new to regex and I guess that for an experienced programmer it won't be difficult to help me.

http://docs.python.org/2/howto/regex.html
or
http://docs.python.org/3/howto/regex.html

I haven’t checked, they are probably much the same

but consult the one that is closest to your python version
