03/03/2022, 1:33 PMHi could anyone help me with what seems like a simple question I want to match a value that can be 0 or 1
After much trying I arrive at
trial: term({
matcher: "\\[0 - 1]",
generate: 0
}),
No luck - Example '0' does not match provided regular expression '\[0 - 1]'
What am I doing wrong please ?

You can’t apply regexes to numbers

they only work on strings

in this case, your only option is to do exact match on value (not ideal) or use the
liked

I'd suggest raising a matcher for a range of integer values here: https://github.com/pact-foundation/pact-specification/issues

It’ll be rust code where that matcher will go, btw 😉

You should raise the suggestion first before issuing a PR, because it has ecosystem wide consequences and we would want to get a consensus that it’s a good idea
