I need to use regex to extract strings delimited by '/'. I need to extract till the second slash:

for example form the following string:

The following string:

This should do it:

/^[^\/]*\/\/[^\/]*\/[^\/]*\//

Try following code.

'http://domain.com/some_path/bla-bla/bla-bla'.match(/(https?|ftp):\/\/([^/]+\/){1,2}/)[0]
=> "http://domain.com/some_path/"
