Regular Expression (Regex) validations in ASP.Net MVC Razor.
Example
Regular Expression (Regex) validations in ASP.Net MVC Razor.
Example
public class Product
{
[Display(Name = "Username")]
[Required(ErrorMessage = "Product Name is required.")]
[RegularExpression("^[a-zA-Z0-9]*$", ErrorMessage = "Only Alphabets and Numbers allowed.")]
public string ProductName{ get; set; }
public string ProductLocation{ get; set; }
}
Controller
The Controller consists of two Action methods.
Action method for handling GET operation
Inside this Action method, simply the View is returned.
Action method for handling POST operation
This action method handles the POST operation and when the form is submitted, the object of the PersonModel class is sent to this method.
public class HomeController : Controller
{
// GET: Home
public ActionResult Index()
{
return View();
}
[HttpPost]
public ActionResult Index(PersonModel person)
{
return View();
}
}
View
Inside the View, in the very first line the PersonModel class is declared as Model for the View.
The View consists of an HTML Form which has been created using the Html.BeginForm method with the following parameters.
ActionName – Name of the Action. In this case the name is Index.
ControllerName – Name of the Controller. In this case the name is Home.
FormMethod – It specifies the Form Method i.e. GET or POST. In this case it will be set to POST.
Inside the View, the following three HTML Helper functions are used:-
1. Html.LabelFor – Displaying the Model property name.
2. Html.TextBoxFor – Creating a TextBox for the Model property.
3. Html.ValidationMessageFor – Displaying the Validation message for the property.
There is also Submit button which when clicked, the Form gets submitted.
The jQuery and the jQuery Validation script bundles are rendered at the end of the Model using the Scripts.Render function.
