Question

I want to use regex to extract the last word from a file path. For example, I have:
/xyz/blahblah/zzz/abc-blah/def-xyz-color.jpg

I want to extract the “color” out of the path. The path color have different syntax. The only thing that is consistent is the ending where it is always -color.jpg where color would be any [a-z] word.

Is there an elegant way to do this?

I would really appreciate any help here. Thanks

var matched = /-(\w+).jpg/i.exec('/xyz/blahblah/zzz/abc-blah/def-xyz-color.jpg')[1];
