What is the regex used for the validation of custom field URL? Give the examples on the same

What is the regex used for the validation of custom field URL in JIRA.

I need to know the valid pattrens on the same.

If you are needing a Regex to validate a url against that works like Jira validation, before pushing an issue through the API then try this:

^([a-zA-Z]+:\/\/)[a-z0-9]+([\-\.]{1}[a-z0-9]+)*\.[a-z]{2,5}(:)?([0-9]{1,5})?(\/.*)?$

This seems to behave like JIRA does.

You might need to massage the string to deal with the slashes in whatever language you are using.

I am not great at Regex, so if anyone wants to optimise or improve this, please have at it. :)

It's not a regular expression, it's a bit of code that uses java.net.url

The "valid patterns" it checks for are simply "any valid url, as defined by the standards"
