Simple Script Validators - exact number of digits

Anna Protopapa

Hello,

I want to have a validation for an optional field that has exactly 8 digits.

My code is:

 // Import Regex

import java.util.regex.*;

// Construct The Pattern to Match on

Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile("([0-9]){8}");

// Check if the PhoneNumber Field is a match

cfValues['PhoneNumber'] == null || pattern.matcher(issue.getCustomFieldValue(customFieldManager.getCustomFieldObjectByName("PhoneNumber")).toString())  

 

The problem is that allows can insert more than 8 digits.

Try this

Pattern.compile("^([0-9]{8})$")
