QtVerbalExpressions

===================

## Qt Regular Expressions made easy

This Qt lib is based off of the C++ [VerbalExpressions](https://github.com/VerbalExpressions/CppVerbalExpressions) library by [whackashoe](https://github.com/whackashoe).

### Testing if we have a valid URL

```cpp

auto expression = QVerbalExpressions()

  .searchOneLine()

  .startOfLine()

  .then("http")

  .maybe("s")

  .then("://")

  .maybe("www.")

  .anythingBut(" ")

  .endOfLine();

qDebug()

  << expression // ^(?:http)(?:s)?(?:://)(?:www.)?(?:[^ ]*)$

  << expression.test("https://www.google.com"); // true

```
