Im looking for a regular expression for a textbox thats accepts either 10 digits, or 8 digits, followed by a dash, followed by 2 digits. Examples:
1212345678
or
12345678-91

If you just want to check if the input is valid without matching any content, this one should be enough:
^\d{8}-?\d\d$
Beginning with 8 digits, followed (or not) by an optional dash, and another 2 digits up to the end.

This Should Work.
((?:^[0-9]{10})|(?:^[0-9]{8}(?:\-\d{2})*))$
Input:
1212345678
12345678-91
12345678901112-10
1234567890-12
Output:
1212345678
12345678-91
See: https://regex101.com/r/AzbVXt/2

^\d{8}(\d{2})?(-\d{2})?$
^ and $ : match from the begging to the end
\d{8} : 8 digits
(\d{2})? : optional two other digits
(-\d{2})? : optional dash, with two other digits
This will match
1212345678
121234567800
Not 1212345678001
1212345678-
1212345678-00
Not 1212345678-001

I need help to create a regex to validate one string, the string must be 12 characters, they can all be numbers or they can be 11 numbers and a letter, the letter can be anywhere between those numbers.
Some examples:
20710117540C
00A109822346
005109822346
K05109822346
// error cases
KY0510982234
KY05109822345
5505109822345
Thanks!
You can use this regex that will meet your requirements,
^(?:\d{12}|(?=\d*[a-zA-Z]\d*$)[\da-zA-Z]{12})$
Explanation:
^ - Start of string
(?: - Start of non-grouping pattern
\d{12} - Matches exactly 12 digits
| - alternation for another case where 11 characters can be any digits and one letter
(?=\d*[a-zA-Z]\d*$) - Look ahead to ensure the the incoming data consists of some digits and exactly one occurrence of alphabet
[\da-zA-Z]{12} - Consume 12 characters consisting of numbers and alphabet
)$ - End of non capturing group and end of input
Demo1
Another simple regex you can use is this,
^(?=\d*[a-zA-Z]?\d*$)[\da-zA-Z]{12}$
Explanation:
^ - Start of string
(?=\d*[a-zA-Z]?\d*$) - Look ahead ensuring the input contains some digits and either one alphabet or no alphabets.
[\da-zA-Z]{12} - Match and consume exactly 12 characters
$ - End of input.

I want to match a string where there are 5 characters where first four characters are A-Z and 5th is a digit. Also the first and the fourth character should be same.
I have a regex: [A-Z]{4}\d
However this wont check if 1st and 4th character are same. Please help
Regex: ^([A-Z])[A-Z]{2}\1\d$
1. ^ start of string.
2. ([A-Z]) capture first character.
3. [A-Z]{2} match next two character which can be in A-Z
4. \1 using captured group which contains first character of string.
5. \d a digit which can be 0-9
6. $ for end of string.

I need a regex to validate phone numbers:
Conditions:
It may have + sign at the beginning (optional)
Then followed by only digits
Minimum 10 digits
Maximum 15 digits
Thanks
You can try this one:
^\+?\d{10,15}$
Explanation:
^ marks start of the string
\+? - where \ escapes + sign and ? makes it optional
\d digit between 0-9
{10,15} means minimum 10 digit and 15 means maximum 15
$ marks end of the string
P.S: Solomon Island has 5 digit phone numbers. With country code it
can be 8 digits

I have in Notepad++ plenty of datetime texts like:
'20160310 17:59:00'
And I want to add '-' character to separate numbers in the date like
'2016-03-10 17:59:00'
How I would be a RegEx expression to do that?
The following regex expression:
('\d{4})(\d{2})(\d{2} \d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}')
Combined with the following replace expression:
$1-$2-$3
will achieve what you want.
Explanation:
('\d{4}) capture group 1: an apostrophe followed by 4 digits
(\d{2}) capture group 2: 2 digits
(\d{2} \d{2}:\d{2}:\d{2}') capture group 3: 2 digits, a space, 2 digits, a colon, 2 digits, a colon and 2 digits, followed by an apostrophe
$1-$2-$3 - capture group 1, followed by a -, followed by capture group 2, followed by a -, followed by capture group 3

I am trying to looking for regex which allows any comma separated values. Like this.
23,23,23
233-2-3,23,23
23/23/2333,22-22-2222,23
I have tried couple of things but nothing fits 100%.
[^,;]+
/(?!,)(?:(?:,|^)([-+]?(?:\d*\.)?\d+))*$/
(\d+, ?)+(\d+)?
My use case is , if my string pass through above regex, I will parse all the values and store it into an array. If string doesn't have any single , than leave that string.
thanks
As stated in the comments, we have come to the following solution:
(?m)^(?:\d+[\/,-]){2,}\d+$
Explanation:
(?m) : make ^ and $ match start and end of line respectively.
^ : Start of line
(?: : Ignore group
\d+ : Match a digit 1 or more times
[\/,-] : Followed by a / or , or -
) : Closing parenthesis for the ignore group
{2,} : Match two times or more
\d+ : Match a digit 1 or more times
$ : End of line
