My solution - https://github.com/iansinnott/react-string-replace/pull/75

@iansinnott, please check it.

Have the same issue with next Regex: /({phone})|({name})/gi
Then var result = str.split(re); - provides next result: ['Please enter the code we sent to you at
 ', '{phone}', undefined, '', undefined, '{name}', '. ']

The solution for this can be next fix: var result = str.split(re).filter(Boolean);
@iansinnott Can you fix this one?

what's the str value?

I think your regex is not doing what you expect. try using only one matching group with | to separate alternative matches.

@iansinnott Thanks for remark. You are right, there was an issue with our regex
however, IMO, in order to prevent error throws, better to add the solution above(or in existed PR), or to add try catch to the code(maybe return error with 'wrong regex provided' or something similar)
