Regex in Terminal to run python

Question

I have a python file that creates commands to run. My example command is

mycmd tags add --name email --regex [\\w-\\.]+@([\\w-]+\\.)+[\\w-]{2,4}

In python file, I'm getting name and regex args using this code.

name = self.args.name
regex = self.args.regex

I get this error. zsh: no matches found: [\w-\.]+@([\w-]+\.)+[\w-]2 How would I get rid of this error and pass regex string?

just enclosed your regex in " " such as
mycmd tags add --name email --regex "[\\w-\\.]+@([\\w-]+\\.)+[\\w-]{2,4}"
It works for me on zsh
