To match all characters between curly braces provided that a specific string is present, you can use the following regular expression:
/\{\s*(specific_string)(.*?)\s*\}/s
In this expression, replace specific_string with the actual string that you want to match. The .*? matches any character (excluding newlines) zero or more times, but as few times as possible, until it reaches the closing curly brace.
Here's a breakdown of the expression:
\{matches the opening curly brace\s*matches zero or more whitespace characters(specific_string)matches the specific string you want to find(.*?)matches any character, but as few times as possible, until it reaches the closing curly brace\s*matches zero or more whitespace characters\}matches the closing curly brace/senables the "dotall" mode, which allows the.character to match newlines as well as other characters
