> Escape RegExp special characters
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Install
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
$ npm install escape-string-regexp
 | 
						|
```
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
## Usage
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
```js
 | 
						|
const escapeStringRegexp = require('escape-string-regexp');
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
const escapedString = escapeStringRegexp('How much $ for a 🦄?');
 | 
						|
//=> 'How much \\$ for a 🦄\\?'
 | 
						|
 | 
						|
new RegExp(escapedString);

You can also use this to escape a string that is inserted into the middle of a regex, for example, into a character class.
