How do I write a path matcher that matches any part of the remaining path with a regex?

Question

I'd like to write a path matcher that matches any of the remaining parts of the path with a regex, so for example,

path("myregex".r) 

would match if i have remaining paths in the form:

/myregex
/foo/myregex
/foo/myregex/bar
/myregex/bar

I looked at the code for the regex matcher, it seems like it only looks at the first segment, I could setup multiple routes or write a custom matcher, but was wondering if there is already a better solution for it?

Thanks,

How about this?

  path(Segments){segments=>
    validate(segments.exists(_.matches("myregex")), "unmatched path"){          
      complete(s"matched: $segments")
    }
  }
