How to define stash issue regex to match only from begining?

Question

The default regex in Stash to match JIRA ID is

JVM_SUPPORT_RECOMMENDED_ARGS="-Dintegration.jira.key.pattern=\"((?<!([a-z]{1,10})-?)[a-z]+-\d+)\""

But it matches regardless where the JIRA ID's location.

I want it only matches from beginning:

How to edit the regex?

Following don't work

\"^((?<!([a-z]{1,10})-?)[a-z]+-\d+)\"

and

\"(^(?<!([a-z]{1,10})-?)[a-z]+-\d+)\"

Solution:

^[a-z]+-\d+ will do.

It is the look-behind that does not let you match that text. Remove it, and use `(?i)^[a-z]+-\d+`. Or if `JIRA` must start the string, `^JIRA-\d+`. — Wiktor Stribiżew, Aug 28 '15 at 07:07

If you want to match the JIRA-<id> only from the beginning you should try:

\"^JIRA-(\d+)\"
