Idiomatic regex group capturing in Groovy
// Using Matcher object returned by =~ operator
matcher = "Hello world v1.01" =~ /.* v(\S*)/
if (matcher.matches()) version = matcher[0][1]
assert version == "1.01"
// We can make this a little tidier using the 'with' method
version = ("Hello world v1.01" =~ /.* v(\S*)/).with { matches() ? it[0][1] : null }
assert version == "1.01"
