Restrict spaces in IP address

[Ankita9793]

Hi All

Can someone please help with below script, how can I validate whenever user enters spaces(beginning, end, inbetween) in the string. Should not allow user to enter spaces.

function onChange(control, oldValue, newValue, isLoading) {

    if (isLoading || newValue == '') {

        return;

    }

    var ipAddresses = g_form.getValue('enter_ip_addresses');

    var ipList = (ipAddresses || '').replaceAll(/\s/g, '').split(',');

    var ipRegex = /^(([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])\.){3}([0-9]|[1-9][0-9]|1[0-9]{2}|2[0-4][0-9]|25[0-5])$/;

    if (ipList.length > 30) {

        g_form.clearValue('enter_ip_addresses');

        g_form.showFieldMsg('enter_ip_addresses', 'Maximum 30 IP addresses are allowed', 'info');

        return;

    }

    ipList.some(function (item) {

        if (!ipRegex.test(item)) {

            g_form.clearValue('enter_ip_addresses');

            g_form.showFieldMsg('enter_ip_addresses', 'Please enter valid IP addresses', 'info');

            return true;

        }

    });

}

You can try OOB Validation regex in variable. If this field is not available in your instance then you can pull it to the form using form layout configuration.

Hi @Ankita9793 ,

Avoid doing customization when the functionality already exist.

Go with what @Pravindra1 has recommended above... its simple and no code solution...

Hi Sohail,

The OOB solution does not fulfill my requirement.

Instead of creating a client script do a validation , you can create a regex rule and use it for validation as did above for IP address validation.

try this regex to avoid spaces > pattern = /^[0-9a-zA-Z]*$/;

Refer how IP Address regex is defined and use that as a base to create your own regex..

i hope this helps @Ankita9793
