Validation with Regex doesn't allow type regexp for a pattern

[psavary]

Steps to Reproduce

Running ctf-migrate up

const regexPattern = /^[^.~:\/?#[\]@!$&'()*+,;=%\s]+(?:-+)*$/;
 
const formPage = migration.editContentType('formPage');
  formPage
    .editField('slug')
    .validations([
      {
        'unique': true
      },
      {
        'regexp': {
          'pattern': regexPattern
        }
      }
    ]);

Expected Behavior

I'd expect that the property pattern accepts a variable of type Regex so that I don't have to write a string and therefore have to escape escape characters like this:

const regexPattern = '^[^.~:\\/?#[\\]@!$&\'()*+,;=%\\s]+(?:-+)*$';

Actual Behavior

Possible Solution

Allow type regexp as a type on property pattern

No update, or does nobody care for this repo? 😢

[psavary]

This is just sad, you know?

[psavary]

Still sad.

Every decent developer seems to have jumped ship in this company. I think I have seen enough. Won't recommend this software until you change this situation.

[psavary]

I'm just here to check how utterly abandoned the codebase here is. Shame on you contentful.

Hey @psavary this sounds like it would be a great improvement, thanks very much for the suggestion and really truly sorry about the radio silence you received. I am gonna see about landing this fix.
