Parsing and Extracting Parts from a Non-JSON String

Hello! I keep running into situations where I need to parse a non-JSON string and pull parts out of it. For (contrived) example, I have an

Authorization

Authorization

header that might contain

Bearer xxx

Bearer xxx

. I already have a Schema for the

xxx

xxx

part that I'd like to use, and I could use

Schema.literal('Bearer ')

Schema.literal('Bearer ')

for the rest. Is there an example of how to do this? I've tried using regex but found it quite verbose/messy as the captured groups aren't readily available.
