ng-pattern允许使用字母和某些特殊字符

Question

In form - name field I want to do a validation against

• Should allow only Alpha characters
• Allow space
• Allow certain special characters - _ \\ / - . ' _ \\ / - . '

I tried,

 ng-pattern="/^[a-z]+[_+\+/+-+.+’][a-z]*$/"

Looks like I have missed out something as its not working!

Answer 1

Let's see:

• Should allow only Alpha characters => [a-zA-Z]
• Allow space => [ ] or \\s
• Allow certain special characters - _ \\ / - . ' ' _ \\ / - . ' ' => [_\\\\\\/.''-]

So, combining all that, the pattern will look like:

ng-pattern="/^[a-zA-Z _\\\/.’'-]+$/"

This matches 1 or more ( + ) chars from the allowed set.

To disallow leading/trailing whitespace, use

ng-pattern="/^[a-zA-Z_\\\/.’'-]+(?: +[A-Za-z_\\\/.’'-]+)*$/" ng-trim="false"

See the regex demo

The ng-trim="false" will prevent from trimming the input sent to the regex engine. The new regex will match:

• ^ - start of string
• [a-zA-Z_\\\\\\/.''-]+ - 1 or more letters or allowed symbols other than space
• (?: +[A-Za-z_\\\\\\/.''-]+)* - zero or more sequences of:
  • + - (or, \\s+ ) - 1 or more spaces (whitespaces)
  • [A-Za-z_\\\\\\/.''-]+ - see above
• $ - end of string.

Answer 2

/^([az _\\/.'-])+$/i would do. If you want any space character instead of just space, use /(^[a-z_\\/.'-]|\\s)+$/i .
