Golang : Regular Expression for alphanumeric and underscore
Problem :
Need a regular expression that only allows upper, lowercase characters, underscores and numbers for Go.
Solution :
Use this regular expression
"^[a-zA-Z0-9_]*$"
Explanations:
^ : start of string
[ : beginning of character group
a-z : any lowercase letter
A-Z : any uppercase letter
0-9 : any digit
_ : underscore
] : end of character group
* : zero or more of the given characters
$ : end of string
Go source code :
package main
import "fmt"
import "regexp"
func main() {
a := "testing_123"
re := regexp.MustCompile("^[a-zA-Z0-9_]*$")
fmt.Println(re.MatchString("123"))
fmt.Println(re.MatchString("abc"))
fmt.Println(re.MatchString(a))
fmt.Println(re.MatchString("世界"))
}
Output :
true
true
true
false
