# escape-string-regexp-node
> Escape RegExp special characters in Node.js
Written originally by [sindresorhus (escape-string-regexp)](https://github.com/sindresorhus/escape-string-regexp)
## Install
```
$ npm install escape-string-regexp-node
```
## Usage
```ts
const escapeRegexp = require("escape-string-regexp-node");
// Typescript
import escapeRegexp from 'escape-string-regexp-node';
const escapedString = escapeRegexp('How much $ for a 🦄?');
//=> 'How much \\$ for a 🦄\\?'
new RegExp(escapedString);

You can also use this to escape a string that is inserted into the middle of a regex, for example, into a character
class.
