Partial path match regex

I'm trying to develop a regex that partially matches a certain branch of a path. Not before and not deeper than that level. For example:

/path  - no match
/path/subpath - no match
/path/subpath/XYZ-123/subpath - no match
/path/subpath/XYZ-123 - match

So far, I have the following

^\/path\/subpath\/.*$

However, this obviously also matches for /path/subpath/XYZ-123/subpath which I would like to exclude as well. Note that the path contains characters, numbers and special characters.

You may use

^\/path\/subpath\/[^\/]*$

See the regex demo.

The regex will match

  • ^ - start of a string
  • \/path\/subpath\/ - /path/subpath/ string
  • [^\/]* - 0 or more chars other than /
  • $ - end of string.
