Extract html and wordpress shortcodes into array of objects

I am working a headless Wordpress site with Nuxt as my front end.

The site has thousands of articles which have shortcodes. I am getting all the page data via graphql and I render content using v-html and it is all working great, but the shortcodes obviously only render as plain text.

They are mostly very simple shortcodes so I am going to create Vue components to replace them using

<component :is="someshortcode">

What I need to do is split my html up into an array of objects I can use to render the parts of the page as html or a component depending what it is.

I imagine the best way to do this is with regex which is where I am stumped.

Let's say I have the following html with some shortcodes

<h1>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<h2>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>

[someshortcode attr1="value1" attr2="value2"]

<h2>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<h2>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>

[someshortcode attr1="value1" attr2="value2"]

<h2>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<h2>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>

What I want to do is return an array of objects as follows

[
    {
        type: 'html',
        content: `<h1>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<h2>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>`
    },
    {
        type: 'shortcode',
        content: `[someshortcode attr1="value1" attr2="value2"]`
    },
    {
        type: 'html',
        content: `<h1>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<h2>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>`
    },
    {
        type: 'shortcode',
        content: `[someshortcode attr1="value1" attr2="value2"]`
    },
    {
        type: 'html',
        content: `<h1>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h1>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<h2>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet</h2>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>
<p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Phasellus facilisis elit ante. Vivamus semper dui eget justo viverra facilisis. Etiam ut leo fermentum, sagittis mauris nec, placerat lorem.</p>`
    },
]

example of content received from the Rest API

This is the basis of what I need, I will then be able to further break the shortcodes down by getting the properties etc.

What would be the best way of going about this? Is regex the best way?
