I have a regex for validating image urls, however some of the images are using @
for example:
https://test.com/image-name@2x.jpeg.
How can I extend this regex to accept also the @
character inside of the image link?
Current regex look like this
(http(s?):)([/|.|w|s|-])*.(?:jpg|jpeg|gif|png)

If it can only be part of the image name, you can add a forward slash followed by matching the allowed chars including the @ before the last dot before the extension.
You can use a character class for the single chars instead of a grouping structure to match one of the listed characters.
If you don’t need the capturing groups, you can omit them to get a match only.
