How to use regex to match specific words in a route in nuxtjs, vue?

Question

I have this route /test/a-vs-b

I am trying to catch this route only if -vs- is found in it.

I tried a few regex variants, but nothing seems to work

routes.push({
    name: 'test',
    path: '/test/:page((.*)-vs-(.*))',
    component: resolve(__dirname, 'test/b.vue'),
});

Any ideas?

I think the answers to my questions can clarify few things: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/59035905/nuxt-encode-decode-uri-with-double-colon — Billal Begueradj, Dec 15 '19 at 15:04

I got it to work by simply removing the parenthesis surrounding the .*s.

routes.push({
    name: 'test',
    path: '/test/:page(.*-vs-.*)',
    component: resolve(__dirname, 'test/b.vue'),
});

I think they do just check the first example on git they have `() capturing group` in the regex – Code Maniac Apr 10 '19 at 18:05
@CodeManiac I think you're confusing how `path-to-regexp` works. See the open issue I linked to. – thanksd Apr 10 '19 at 18:21
