Regex, substitute part of a string always at the end-CodePudding

I am trying to substitute a string so a part of this url always goes to the end

google.com/to_the_end/faa/
google.com/to_the_end/faa/fee/
google.com/to_the_end/faa/fee/fii

Using this

(google\.com)\/(to_the_end)\/([a-zA-Z0-9._-] )

$1/$3/$2

It works for the first example, but I need something a bit more versatile so no matter how many folders it always moves to_the_end as the last folder in the url string

Desired output

google.com/faa/to_the_end
google.com/faa/fee/to_the_end/
google.com/faa/fee/fii/to_the_end/

CodePudding user response：

You can use

(google\.com)\/(to_the_end)\/(.*[^\/])\/?$

See the regex demo.

Details:

(google\.com) - Group 1: google.com
\/ - a / char
(to_the_end) - Group 2: to_the_end
\/ - a / char
(.*[^\/]) - Group 3: any zero or more chars other than line break chars as many as possible and then a char other than a / char
\/? - an optional / char
$ - end of string.
