How to concisely cascade through multiple regex statements in Python

Question

My dilemma: I\'m passing my function a string that I need to then perform numerous regex manipulations on. The logic is if there\'s a match in the first regex, do one thing

Answer 1

Hmm... you could use something with the with construct... um

class rewrapper()
    def __init__(self, pattern, target):
        something

    def __enter__(self):
        something

    def __exit__(self):
        something


 with rewrapper("regex1", string) as match:
    etc

 with rewrapper("regex2", string) as match: 
    and so forth
