Data that needs to be validated.

Language of messages.

match Boolean

If true (or not set), this validator will pass if the given string matches the given pattern regular expression.

However, when this option is set to false, the opposite will occur: validation will pass only if the given string does not match the pattern regular expression.

Default: true.

This is the message that will be shown if this validator fails.

Default: "This value is not valid."

You can use the following parameters in this message:

Parameter Description
%%value%% The current (invalid) value

normalize Boolean

Normalizer string before validate (trim, etc.).

Default: false

pattern String

This required option is the regular expression pattern that the input will be matched against.

By default, this validator will fail if the input string does not match this regular expression.

However, if match is set to false, then validation will fail if the input string does match this pattern.
