I need to do dynamic validation on a number while user giving input. Number format should be-- before decimal it should restrict 12 digit and after decimal 2 digit.
I have written one validation function using Onkeyup and by giving maxlength. But I am facing issue like, if I remove one digit after decimal then its allowing more than 13 digit before decimal.
below function I have written for validation
function validation(e){
var t = e.value;
if( t.indexOf(".") <= 0 ) {
e.value = t.substr(0,12);
}
if( ( t.slice( 0, e.selectionStart ).length >= ( t.indexOf(".") + 3 ) ) {
e.value = ( t.indexOf(".") >= 0 ) ?
( t.substr( 0, t.indexOf(".") ) + t.substr( t.indexOf("."), 3 ) ) :
t
}
Appreciate any help!!
Thanks.
Regex
You can use a regular expression (regex).
For instance:
^(([1-9]{1}[0-9]{0,11}|[0-9]{1}))(\.\d{1,2})?$
Ok let's check out:
Numbers before the decimal point: ([1-9]{1}[0-9]{0,11}|[0-9]{1})
So either [1-9]{1}[0-9]{0,11} or [0-9]{1}, where the first expression prevents leading zeros and second expression makes the input o f 0 possible.
These expressions are followed by an optional decimal point (\.\d{1,2})?. The ? means that the expression can be there 0 or 1 times (so the input can be a decimal number or not). After the decimal point there have to be one 1 or 2 numbers (decimals).
You can try the expressions here: Online regex tester and debugger.
This should work:
123456789123
123.40
0
0.0
953
953.1
953.0
953.01
953.12
This should not work:
1234567891239 // 13 numbers
000.12 // leading zeros
123.001 // Too many decimals
Implementation
Possibility 1 is to insert the regex directly into the <input> using the pattern attribute. Possibility 2 is to do the validation via javascript. Note that you have to escape the backslashes \\.
let pattern = '^(([1-9]{1}[0-9]{0,11}|[0-9]{1}))(\\.\\d{1,2})?$';
let regex = new Regex(pattern);
function validation(e){
if(regex.test(e.value)){
// Value fits the pattern
}else{
// Value do not fit the pattern
}
}
Help me with regular expressions. I need to check the text on the hour and minute. That is the first case, the text can be from 0 to 12. In the second case, the text can be from 1 to 60.
this is my code:
var hourRegEx = /^([0-9]{2})$/; //You can fix this line of code?
$(document).ready(
function(){
$('form.form').submit(function(){
if( $('input.hour').val().match(hourRegEx) ){
return true;
}
return false;
});
});
In my case, the code says that, for example 52, too, the correct answer
I would do this with parseInt and numeric checking:
var hour = parseInt($('input.hour').val(), 10);
if((hour >= 0) && (hour <= 11)){
return true;
}
If what you are inherently doing is comparing numbers you really shouldn't use a regex
I would do this:
var numericRegEx = /^[0-9]+$/;
$(document).ready(
function(){
$('form.form').submit(function(){
var hourVal = $('input.hour').val();
if( hourVal.match(numericRegEx) && parseInt(hourVal) <= 11){
return true;
}
return false;
});
});
This may be overly complicated; if I was doing this I would just use parseInt, but the original code would return false for values such as "11blah" so some regex functionality is still used to check the entire string is an integer.
Why not convert it to integer and use <? Regex is not a substitution for integer arithmetics.
Use: /^([0-9]|10|11|12)$/. It's short enough, and very clear :)
Edit: or, if #Jamiec is right and you're mistaken about the numbers, /^([0-9]|10|11)$/
For minutes, use: /^([0-9]|[1-5][0-9])$/.
Edit 2: ah wait, 1 to 60. Use this:
/^([1-9]|[1-5][0-9]|60)$/
and for hours 1-12, if you need it:
/^([1-9]|10|11|12)$/ or /^([1-9]|1[0-2])$/
The RegEx for testing a number between 0 and 12 would be along the lines of ^([0-9]|1[012])$ and for the minutes: ^[1-9]|[2-5][0-9]$.
I wouldn't recommend it though. Personally, I'd use parseInt to get the value as a number. You can check it's a valid number because parseInt will return NaN if it isn't. Then you can do your range check.
var hourVal = parseInt($('input.hour').val(),10),
minVal = parseInt($('input.minute').val(),10);
if(hourVal && hourVal >=0 and hourVal <= 12){
// hour valid
}
if(minVal && minVal >=1 and minVal <= 60){
// min valid
}
This should handle also cases where the user inputs 00-09:
/^(0?[0-9]|1[0-2])$/
This:
[1-9]|1[0-2] will match the hour ( 1 .. 12 )
[1-9]|[1-5][0-9]|60 will match the minutes ( 1 .. 60 )
if you want to match 0 .. 11 and 0 .. 59 do this
[0-9]|1[0-1] will match the hour ( 0 .. 11 )
[0-9]|[1-5][0-9] will match the minutes ( 0 .. 59 )
if you want to match 00 .. 11 and 00 .. 59 do this
0[0-9]|10|11 will match the hour ( 00 .. 11 )
[0-5][0-9] will match the minutes ( 00 .. 59 )
Using regex is not viable for this case. You should compare integer instead, because '1', '01', '001' are valid too.
i recommand this kind of snippet
val = parseInt($('input.hour').val());
if (val >= 0 && val <= 12)
// is valid ...
I have several ip addresses like:
115.42.150.37
115.42.150.38
115.42.150.50
What type of regular expression should I write if I want to search for the all the 3 ip addresses? Eg, if I do 115.42.150.* (I will be able to search for all 3 ip addresses)
What I can do now is something like: /[0-9]{1-3}\.[0-9]{1-3}\.[0-9]{1-3}\.[0-9]{1-3}/ but it can't seems to work well.
Thanks.
May be late but, someone could try:
Example of VALID IP address
115.42.150.37
192.168.0.1
110.234.52.124
Example of INVALID IP address
210.110 – must have 4 octets
255 – must have 4 octets
y.y.y.y – only digits are allowed
255.0.0.y – only digits are allowed
666.10.10.20 – octet number must be between [0-255]
4444.11.11.11 – octet number must be between [0-255]
33.3333.33.3 – octet number must be between [0-255]
JavaScript code to validate an IP address
function ValidateIPaddress(ipaddress) {
if (/^(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)$/.test(ipaddress)) {
return (true)
}
alert("You have entered an invalid IP address!")
return (false)
}
Try this one, it's a shorter version:
^(?!0)(?!.*\.$)((1?\d?\d|25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d)(\.|$)){4}$
Explained:
^ start of string
(?!0) Assume IP cannot start with 0
(?!.*\.$) Make sure string does not end with a dot
(
(
1?\d?\d| A single digit, two digits, or 100-199
25[0-5]| The numbers 250-255
2[0-4]\d The numbers 200-249
)
\.|$ the number must be followed by either a dot or end-of-string - to match the last number
){4} Expect exactly four of these
$ end of string
Unit test for a browser's console:
var rx=/^(?!0)(?!.*\.$)((1?\d?\d|25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d)(\.|$)){4}$/;
var valid=['1.2.3.4','11.11.11.11','123.123.123.123','255.250.249.0','1.12.123.255','127.0.0.1','1.0.0.0'];
var invalid=['0.1.1.1','01.1.1.1','012.1.1.1','1.2.3.4.','1.2.3\n4','1.2.3.4\n','259.0.0.1','123.','1.2.3.4.5','.1.2.3.4','1,2,3,4','1.2.333.4','1.299.3.4'];
valid.forEach(function(s){if (!rx.test(s))console.log('bad valid: '+s);});
invalid.forEach(function(s){if (rx.test(s)) console.log('bad invalid: '+s);});
If you are using nodejs try:
require('net').isIP('10.0.0.1')
doc net.isIP()
The regex you've got already has several problems:
Firstly, it contains dots. In regex, a dot means "match any character", where you need to match just an actual dot. For this, you need to escape it, so put a back-slash in front of the dots.
Secondly, but you're matching any three digits in each section. This means you'll match any number between 0 and 999, which obviously contains a lot of invalid IP address numbers.
This can be solved by making the number matching more complex; there are other answers on this site which explain how to do that, but frankly it's not worth the effort -- in my opinion, you'd be much better off splitting the string by the dots, and then just validating the four blocks as numeric integer ranges -- ie:
if(block >= 0 && block <= 255) {....}
Hope that helps.
Don't write your own regex or copy paste! You probably won't cover all edge cases (IPv6, but also octal IPs, etc). Use the is-ip package from npm:
var isIp = require('is-ip');
isIp('192.168.0.1');
isIp('1:2:3:4:5:6:7:8');
Will return a Boolean.
Try this one.. Source from here.
"\b(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\b"
Below Solution doesn't accept Padding Zeros
Here is the cleanest way to validate an IP Address, Let's break it down:
Fact: a valid IP Address is has 4 octets, each octets can be a number between 0 - 255
Breakdown of Regex that matches any value between 0 - 255
25[0-5] matches 250 - 255
2[0-4][0-9] matches 200 - 249
1[0-9][0-9] matches 100 - 199
[1-9][0-9]? matches 1 - 99
0 matches 0
const octet = '(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9]?|0)';
Notes: When using new RegExp you should use \\. instead of \. since string will get escaped twice.
function isValidIP(str) {
const octet = '(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9]?|0)';
const regex = new RegExp(`^${octet}\\.${octet}\\.${octet}\\.${octet}$`);
return regex.test(str);
}
If you want something more readable than regex for ipv4 in modern browsers you can go with
function checkIsIPV4(entry) {
var blocks = entry.split(".");
if(blocks.length === 4) {
return blocks.every(function(block) {
return parseInt(block,10) >=0 && parseInt(block,10) <= 255;
});
}
return false;
}
A short RegEx: ^(?:(?:^|\.)(?:2(?:5[0-5]|[0-4]\d)|1?\d?\d)){4}$
Example
const isValidIp = value => (/^(?:(?:^|\.)(?:2(?:5[0-5]|[0-4]\d)|1?\d?\d)){4}$/.test(value) ? true : false);
// valid
console.log("isValidIp('0.0.0.0') ? ", isValidIp('0.0.0.0'));
console.log("isValidIp('115.42.150.37') ? ", isValidIp('115.42.150.37'));
console.log("isValidIp('192.168.0.1') ? ", isValidIp('192.168.0.1'));
console.log("isValidIp('110.234.52.124' ? ", isValidIp('110.234.52.124'));
console.log("isValidIp('115.42.150.37') ? ", isValidIp('115.42.150.37'));
console.log("isValidIp('115.42.150.38') ? ", isValidIp('115.42.150.38'));
console.log("isValidIp('115.42.150.50') ? ", isValidIp('115.42.150.50'));
// Invalid
console.log("isValidIp('210.110') ? ", isValidIp('210.110'));
console.log("isValidIp('255') ? ", isValidIp('255'));
console.log("isValidIp('y.y.y.y' ? ", isValidIp('y.y.y.y'));
console.log(" isValidIp('255.0.0.y') ? ", isValidIp('255.0.0.y'));
console.log("isValidIp('666.10.10.20') ? ", isValidIp('666.10.10.20'));
console.log("isValidIp('4444.11.11.11') ? ", isValidIp('4444.11.11.11'));
console.log("isValidIp('33.3333.33.3') ? ", isValidIp('33.3333.33.3'));
/^(?!.*\.$)((?!0\d)(1?\d?\d|25[0-5]|2[0-4]\d)(\.|$)){4}$/
Full credit to oriadam. I would have commented below his/her answer to suggest the double zero change I made, but I do not have enough reputation here yet...
change:
-(?!0) Because IPv4 addresses starting with zeros ('0.248.42.223') are valid (but not usable)
+(?!0\d) Because IPv4 addresses with leading zeros ('63.14.209.00' and '011.012.013.014') can sometimes be interpreted as octal
Simple Method
const invalidIp = ipAddress
.split(".")
.map(ip => Number(ip) >= 0 && Number(ip) <= 255)
.includes(false);
if(invalidIp){
// IP address is invalid
// throw error here
}
Regular expression for the IP address format:
/^(\d\d?)|(1\d\d)|(0\d\d)|(2[0-4]\d)|(2[0-5])\.(\d\d?)|(1\d\d)|(0\d\d)|(2[0-4]\d)|(2[0-5])\.(\d\d?)|(1\d\d)|(0\d\d)|(2[0-4]\d)|(2[0-5])$/;
If you wrtie the proper code you need only this very simple regular expression: /\d{1,3}/
function isIP(ip) {
let arrIp = ip.split(".");
if (arrIp.length !== 4) return "Invalid IP";
let re = /\d{1,3}/;
for (let oct of arrIp) {
if (oct.match(re) === null) return "Invalid IP"
if (Number(oct) < 0 || Number(oct) > 255)
return "Invalid IP";
}
return "Valid IP";
}
But actually you get even simpler code by not using any regular expression at all:
function isIp(ip) {
var arrIp = ip.split(".");
if (arrIp.length !== 4) return "Invalid IP";
for (let oct of arrIp) {
if ( isNaN(oct) || Number(oct) < 0 || Number(oct) > 255)
return "Invalid IP";
}
return "Valid IP";
}
Throwing in a late contribution:
^(?!\.)((^|\.)([1-9]?\d|1\d\d|2(5[0-5]|[0-4]\d))){4}$
Of the answers I checked, they're either longer or incomplete in their verification. Longer, in my experience, means harder to overlook and therefore more prone to be erroneous. And I like to avoid repeating similar patters, for the same reason.
The main part is, of course, the test for a number - 0 to 255, but also making sure it doesn't allow initial zeroes (except for when it's a single one):
[1-9]?\d|1\d\d|2(5[0-5]|[0-4]\d)
Three alternations - one for sub 100: [1-9]?\d, one for 100-199: 1\d\d and finally 200-255: 2(5[0-5]|[0-4]\d).
This is preceded by a test for start of line or a dot ., and this whole expression is tested for 4 times by the appended {4}.
This complete test for four byte representations is started by testing for start of line followed by a negative look ahead to avoid addresses starting with a .: ^(?!\.), and ended with a test for end of line ($).
See some samples here at regex101.
This is what I did and it's fast and works perfectly:
function isIPv4Address(inputString) {
let regex = new RegExp(/^(([0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3})$/);
if(regex.test(inputString)){
let arInput = inputString.split(".")
for(let i of arInput){
if(i.length > 1 && i.charAt(0) === '0')
return false;
else{
if(parseInt(i) < 0 || parseInt(i) >=256)
return false;
}
}
}
else
return false;
return true;
}
Explanation: First, with the regex check that the IP format is correct. Although, the regex won't check any value ranges.
I mean, if you can use Javascript to manage regex, why not use it?. So, instead of using a crazy regex, use Regex only for checking that the format is fine and then check that each value in the octet is in the correct value range (0 to 255). Hope this helps anybody else. Peace.
And instead of
{1-3}
you should put
{1,3}
\b(?:[0-9]{1,3}\.){3}[0-9]{1,3}\b
matches 0.0.0.0 through 999.999.999.999
use if you know the seachdata does not contain invalid IP addresses
\b(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\b
use to match IP numbers with accurracy - each of the 4 numbers is stored into it's own capturing group, so you can access them later
it is maybe better:
function checkIP(ip) {
var x = ip.split("."), x1, x2, x3, x4;
if (x.length == 4) {
x1 = parseInt(x[0], 10);
x2 = parseInt(x[1], 10);
x3 = parseInt(x[2], 10);
x4 = parseInt(x[3], 10);
if (isNaN(x1) || isNaN(x2) || isNaN(x3) || isNaN(x4)) {
return false;
}
if ((x1 >= 0 && x1 <= 255) && (x2 >= 0 && x2 <= 255) && (x3 >= 0 && x3 <= 255) && (x4 >= 0 && x4 <= 255)) {
return true;
}
}
return false;
}
The answers over allow leading zeros in Ip address, and that it is not correct.
For example ("123.045.067.089"should return false).
The correct way to do it like that.
function isValidIP(ipaddress) {
if (/^(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[1]?[1-9][1-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[1]?[1-9][1-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[1]?[1-9][1-9]?)\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[1]?[1-9][1-9]?)$/.test(ipaddress)) {
return (true)
}
return (false) }
This function will not allow zero to lead IP addresses.
Always looking for variations, seemed to be a repetitive task so how about using forEach!
function checkIP(ip) {
//assume IP is valid to start, once false is found, always false
var test = true;
//uses forEach method to test each block of IPv4 address
ip.split('.').forEach(validateIP4);
if (!test)
alert("Invalid IP4 format\n"+ip)
else
alert("IP4 format correct\n"+ip);
function validateIP4(num, index, arr) {
//returns NaN if not an Int
item = parseInt(num, 10);
//test validates Int, 0-255 range and 4 bytes of address
// && test; at end required because this function called for each block
test = !isNaN(item) && !isNaN(num) && item >=0 && item < 256 && arr.length==4 && test;
}
}
In addition to a solution without regex:
const checkValidIpv4 = (entry) => {
const mainPipeline = [
block => !isNaN(parseInt(block, 10)),
block => parseInt(block,10) >= 0,
block => parseInt(block,10) <= 255,
block => String(block).length === 1
|| String(block).length > 1
&& String(block)[0] !== '0',
];
const blocks = entry.split(".");
if(blocks.length === 4
&& !blocks.every(block => parseInt(block, 10) === 0)) {
return blocks.every(block =>
mainPipeline.every(ckeck => ckeck(block) )
);
}
return false;
}
console.log(checkValidIpv4('0.0.0.0')); //false
console.log(checkValidIpv4('0.0.0.1')); //true
console.log(checkValidIpv4('0.01.001.0')); //false
console.log(checkValidIpv4('8.0.8.0')); //true
This should work:
function isValidIP(str) {
const arr = str.split(".").filter((el) => {
return !/^0.|\D/g.test(el);
});
return arr.filter((el) => el.length && el >= 0 && el <= 255).length === 4;
}
well I try this, I considered cases and how the entries had to be:
function isValidIP(str) {
let cong= /^(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|[0-9])\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|[0-9])\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|[0-9])\.(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|1[0-9][0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|[0-9])$/
return cong.test(str);}
A less stringent when testing the type not the validity. For example when sorting columns use this check to see which sort to use.
export const isIpAddress = (ipAddress) =>
/^((\d){1,3}\.){3}(\d){1,3}$/.test(ipAddress)
When checking for validity use this test. An even more stringent test checking that the IP 8-bit numbers are in the range 0-255:
export const isValidIpAddress = (ipAddress) =>
/^((25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)\.){3}(25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9]|[01]?[0-9][0-9]?)$/.test(ipAddress)
