Regex - matching brazilian phone numbers
I'm trying to use Regex to validate brazilian phone numbers.
For some reason, I cannot use b to indicate the beginning and the end for the match. In this case, my Regex selects some invalid phone numbers as valid.
RegEX:
(?([0-9]{2,3}|0{1}((x|[0-9]){2,3}[0-9]{2})))?s*[0-9]{4,5}[- ]*[0-9]{4}
Valid numbers:
(00)0000-0000; true
(00)000000000; true
(00) 00000 0000; true
00 00000 0000; true
(000)00000 0000; true
Invalid numbers:
23232443243243423432; true
(0000)000000000; true
a00 00000-0000 ; true
Thanks!

If you match the whole string by enclosing the whole regex with^
and$
, will it be OK?

Parentheses, spaces and dashes don't actually mean anything as far as telephone devices are concerned, you could very well strip those from the string before validating.

@Havenard, I'm using this Regex as Watson Assistant pattern. That's the problem.

You should place word boundaries at the "right" places. They must placed at the first obligatory word char matching pattern and after the last obligatory word char.
(?b([0-9]{2,3}|0((x|[0-9]){2,3}[0-9]{2})))?s*[0-9]{4,5}[- ]*[0-9]{4}b
^^ ^^
See the regex demo
If you put b
before (?
, when there is a (
before a digit, the word boundary will invalidate the match if there is no word char right before the (
