Email Address Validation in Android on EditText [duplicate]
Java:
public static boolean isValidEmail(CharSequence target) {
return (!TextUtils.isEmpty(target) && Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS.matcher(target).matches());
}
Kotlin:
fun CharSequence?.isValidEmail() = !isNullOrEmpty() && Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS.matcher(this).matches()
Edit: It will work On Android 2.2+ onwards !!
Edit: Added missing ;
To perform Email Validation we have many ways,but simple & easiest way are two methods.
1- Using EditText(....).addTextChangedListener
which keeps triggering on every input in an EditText box
i.e email_id is invalid or valid
/**
* Email Validation ex:- [email protected]
*/
final EditText emailValidate = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.textMessage);
final TextView textView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.text);
String email = emailValidate.getText().toString().trim();
String emailPattern = "[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@[a-z]+\\.+[a-z]+";
emailValidate .addTextChangedListener(new TextWatcher() {
public void afterTextChanged(Editable s) {
if (email.matches(emailPattern) && s.length() > 0)
{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"valid email address",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
// or
textView.setText("valid email");
}
else
{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Invalid email address",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
//or
textView.setText("invalid email");
}
}
public void beforeTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int count, int after) {
// other stuffs
}
public void onTextChanged(CharSequence s, int start, int before, int count) {
// other stuffs
}
});
2- Simplest method using if-else
condition. Take the EditText box string using getText() and compare with pattern provided for email. If pattern doesn't match or macthes, onClick of button toast a message. It ll not trigger on every input of an character in EditText box . simple example shown below.
final EditText emailValidate = (EditText)findViewById(R.id.textMessage);
final TextView textView = (TextView)findViewById(R.id.text);
String email = emailValidate.getText().toString().trim();
String emailPattern = "[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@[a-z]+\\.+[a-z]+";
// onClick of button perform this simplest code.
if (email.matches(emailPattern))
{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"valid email address",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
else
{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"Invalid email address", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
I did this way:
Add this method to check whether email address is valid or not:
private boolean isValidEmailId(String email){
return Pattern.compile("^(([\\w-]+\\.)+[\\w-]+|([a-zA-Z]{1}|[\\w-]{2,}))@"
+ "((([0-1]?[0-9]{1,2}|25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9])\\.([0-1]?"
+ "[0-9]{1,2}|25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9])\\."
+ "([0-1]?[0-9]{1,2}|25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9])\\.([0-1]?"
+ "[0-9]{1,2}|25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9])){1}|"
+ "([a-zA-Z]+[\\w-]+\\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,4})$").matcher(email).matches();
}
Now check with String of EditText:
if(isValidEmailId(edtEmailId.getText().toString().trim())){
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Valid Email Address.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}else{
Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "InValid Email Address.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}
Done
Use this method for validating your email format. Pass email as string , it returns true if format is correct otherwise false.
/**
* validate your email address format. [email protected]
*/
public boolean emailValidator(String email)
{
Pattern pattern;
Matcher matcher;
final String EMAIL_PATTERN = "^[_A-Za-z0-9-]+(\\.[_A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@[A-Za-z0-9]+(\\.[A-Za-z0-9]+)*(\\.[A-Za-z]{2,})$";
pattern = Pattern.compile(EMAIL_PATTERN);
matcher = pattern.matcher(email);
return matcher.matches();
}
