unicode

If you have read my previous posts; you might know I am currently working on a new project to move some services to a self-hosted solution. As part of this, I have been working on dealing with unicode characters in regex.

In relation to this I have found that I am writing the same function repeatedly. The only difference being the number matches being returned. So I decided we need to refactor this.

As part of my project Self Hosted Zapier Alternative; I am having to deal with doing regex searches against the three Japanese written forms, Kanji, Hiragana and Katakana.
