Other Route Options

Express also allows regular expressions to be used as URIs. When using regular expressions for routes, the developer is responsible for handling any route parameters. Let’s rewrite "/teams/:teamName/employees" as a regular expression. /^\/teams\/(\w+)\/employees$/i would be the equivalent URI definition. When using regular expressions, you’ll need to create capture groups using () to have access to that value in any middleware functions.

It is worth mentioning here that, under the hood, Express converts all route definitions to regular expressions. This shouldn’t be too surprising if you revisit Chapter 6 and look at how we set up our routes when we wrote our simple Node server.
