Replaces all occurrences of a regular expression with the replacement pattern.
```golang
{{ replaceRE "^https?://([^/]+).*" "$1" "http://gohugo.io/docs" }}` → "gohugo.io"
{{ "http://gohugo.io/docs" | replaceRE "^https?://([^/]+).*" "$1" }}` "gohugo.io"
```

Hugo uses Golang's [Regular Expression package](https://golang.org/pkg/regexp/), which is the same general syntax used by Perl, Python, and other languages but with a few minor differences for those coming from a background in PCRE. For a full syntax listing, see the [GitHub wiki for re2](https://github.com/google/re2/wiki/Syntax).
If you are just learning RegEx, or at least Golang's flavor, you can practice pattern matching in the browser at <https://regex101.com/>.
