Monit configuration escaping match pattern string

[Former user]

am using php and bash to generate monit configuration file /etc/monit.conf I have a problem in escaping double quote and single in ignore match pattern rule

I am using php preg_quote() function to escape the user input text I have try to quote the string with double quote and escaped the double quote inside with

\ and \\ => Error: regex parsing error:Trailing backslash
and \\\ => Error: syntax error '\*\?\[\^\]\$\'

## Monitoring log files 
Check file file.log with path /file/path
ignore match  "\\\+\"\*\?\[\^\]\$\(\)\{\}\=\!\<\>\|\:\-"
if match "ERROR" then alert

Same thing with simple quote

## Monitoring log files 
Check file file.log with path /file/path
ignore match  '\\\+\'\*\?\[\^\]\$\(\)\{\}\=\!\<\>\|\:\-'
if match "ERROR" then alert

I have search in google for possible solution with no chance

I hope someone have resolved this before

Please note that Monit is using POSIX regex not pcre (Perl Compatible Regular Expressions) so you need to adjust for that. Hint use character classes
