Regex: How to get all strings between slashes from URL pathname?-CodePudding

How to get all strings between slashes from URL pathname until first interrogation mark if any using regex?

For instance, I can have:

/abc/def/ghi?foo=bar → ['abc','def','ghi']
/abc/xyz             → ['abc','xyz']
abc/xyz              → ['abc','xyz']
abc/xyz/             → ['abc','xyz']

I tried this javascript code:

'/abc/def/ghi?foo=bar'.match(/\w /)

But I'm only getting the abc.

Converting my comment to answer so that solution is easy to find for future visitors.

You may use this regex with look around assertions:

/(?<=^|\/)[^\/?] (?=[\/?]|$)/gm

RegEx Demo

RegEx Breakup:

(?<=^|\/): Lookbehind to assert presence of line start or / at previous position
[^\/?] : Match 1 of any char that is not / and ?
(?=[\/?]|$): Lookahead to assert presence of line end or / or ?` at next position
