10## Example
11
12Get the first matching pair of braces:
13
14```js
15var balanced = require('balanced-match');
16
17console.log(balanced('{', '}', 'pre{in{nested}}post'));
18console.log(balanced('{', '}', 'pre{first}between{second}post'));
19console.log(balanced(/\s+\{\s+/, /\s+\}\s+/, 'pre { in{nest} } post'));
20```
21
22The matches are:
23
24```bash
25$ node example.js
26{ start: 3, end: 14, pre: 'pre', body: 'in{nested}', post: 'post' }
27{ start: 3,
28 end: 9,
29 pre: 'pre',
30 body: 'first',
31 post: 'between{second}post' }
32{ start: 3, end: 17, pre: 'pre', body: 'in{nest}', post: 'post' }
33```
34
35## API
36
37### var m = balanced(a, b, str)
38
39For the first non-nested matching pair of `a` and `b` in `str`, return an
40object with those keys:
41
42* **start** the index of the first match of `a`
43* **end** the index of the matching `b`
44* **pre** the preamble, `a` and `b` not included
45* **body** the match, `a` and `b` not included
46* **post** the postscript, `a` and `b` not included
47
48If there's no match, `undefined` will be returned.
49
50If the `str` contains more `a` than `b` / there are unmatched pairs, the first match that was closed will be used. For example, `{{a}` will match `['{', 'a', '']` and `{a}}` will match `['', 'a', '}']`.
51
52### var r = balanced.range(a, b, str)
53
54For the first non-nested matching pair of `a` and `b` in `str`, return an
55array with indexes: `[ <a index>, <b index> ]`.
56
57If there's no match, `undefined` will be returned.
58
59If the `str` contains more `a` than `b` / there are unmatched pairs, the first match that was closed will be used. For example, `{{a}` will match `[ 1, 3 ]` and `{a}}` will match `[0, 2]`.
