Function regexp_is_match_scalar

pub fn regexp_is_match_scalar<'a, S>(
    array: &'a S,
    regex: &str,
    flag: Option<&str>,
) -> Result<BooleanArray, ArrowError>
where
    &'a S: StringArrayType<'a>,

Return BooleanArray indicating which strings in an array match a single regular expression.

This is equivalent to the SQL array ~ regex_array, supporting [StringArray] / [LargeStringArray] / [StringViewArray] and a scalar.

See the documentation on regexp_is_match for more details on arguments

Example

// array of strings to match
let array = StringArray::from(vec!["Foo", "Bar", "FooBar", "Baz"]);
let regexp = "^Foo"; // regular expression to match against
let flags: Option<&str> = None;  // flags can control the matching behavior
// The result is a BooleanArray indicating when each string in `array`
// matches the regular expression `regexp`
let result = regexp_is_match_scalar(&array, regexp, None).unwrap();
assert_eq!(result, BooleanArray::from(vec![true, false, true, false]));
