└ RegExMatcher

Iterates over the matches of a regular expression against one input string.

Matchers are created by RegEx.matcher. Each successful call to find updates the value returned by group, start, and end.

import klyn.regex

matcher = RegEx(r"([A-Za-z]+):(\d+)").matcher("alpha:12 beta:34")
while matcher.find():
    print(matcher.group(1), matcher.group(2))
