| I have three strings | |
| /kinto_read-only_1 | |
| /kinto_read-only_1/db1 | |
| /kinto_read-only_1/db1_1 | |
| * I want matches only on the first string | |
| * the digit after a _ could be any number (ie only_1, only_2, only_3) | |
| * the number after db1 could be any number (ie db1, db2) | |
| Need a pattern to match this using Python's PRE functions |
