How This Works

Use SQLite REGEXP to validate URL format in a bookmarks or links table after enabling custom REGEXP function. The regex pattern is used with SQLite's REGEXP operator to filter rows at the database level.

Using regex directly in SQL is efficient for use cases like data validation — it avoids loading data into application memory just to filter it with a regex.
