UNC Path

Regular expression to parse a UNC path.

Usage

var reUncPath = require( '@stdlib/regexp/unc-path' );

reUncPath()

Return a regular expression to parse a UNC path.

var RE_UNC_PATH = reUncPath();
var parts = RE_UNC_PATH.exec( '\\\\server\\share\\foo\\bar\\baz:a:b' );
/* returns
    [

var parts = reUncPath.REGEXP.exec( '\\\\server\\share\\foo\\bar\\baz' )[ 1 ];
// returns 'server'
