I'm pretty sure the regex is created automatically. I only needed 
to do this:

    (org-link-set-parameters "ebib" :follow #'org-ebib-open :store 
    #'org-ebib-store-link)

And then define the functions `org-ebib-open` and 
`org-ebib-store-link`. (Cf. 
<https://github.com/joostkremers/ebib/blob/master/org-ebib.el>).

And yes, I apologize for the irony. ;-)
