class RegexHandler(Handler):
    """
    Handler class to handle Telegram updates based on a regex. It uses a
    regular expression to check text messages. Read the documentation of the
    ``re`` module for more information. The ``re.match`` function is used to
    determine if an update should be handled by this handler.

    Args:
        pattern (str or Pattern): The regex pattern.
        callback (function): A function that takes ``bot, update`` as
            positional arguments. It will be called when the ``checkUpdate``
            has determined that an update should be processed by this handler.
        pass_groups (optional[bool]): If the callback should be passed the
            result of ``re.match(pattern, text).groups()`` as a keyword
            argument called ``groups``. Default is ``False``
        pass_groupdict (optional[bool]): If the callback should be passed the
            result of ``re.match(pattern, text).groupdict()`` as a keyword
            argument called ``groupdict``. Default is ``False``
        pass_update_queue (optional[bool]): If the handler should be passed the
            update queue as a keyword argument called ``update_queue``. It can
            be used to insert updates. Default is ``False``
