skip_until

skip_until(pattern)
Instance Public methods

Advances the scan pointer until pattern is matched and consumed. Returns the number of bytes advanced, or nil if no match was found.

Look ahead to match pattern, and advance the scan pointer to the end of the match. Return the number of characters advanced, or nil if the match was unsuccessful.

It's similar to scan_until, but without returning the intervening string.
