I am making a validation for my invoiceId which basically allows all letters and numbers and the dash character (-), and it doesn't allow the word draft in any part of the string, for example:
Valid cases:
- 123456
- InvoiceId-1234
- -1234-Invoice-Id
Invalid cases:
- draft-234
- invoicedraft123
- 12345draft
- -draft
This is the regex I am using to validate alphanumeric characters and special characters:
[a-zA-Z0-9-]+
I have tried the negative look ahead for here are my attempts:
/^\b(?:(?!(D|d)(R|r)(A|a)(F|f)(T|t))[a-zA-Z0-9-]+$/;
This one just stops the word draft at the beginning
and /^((?!draft).)*([a-zA-Z0-9-])$;
This one allows special characters.
Is it posible to have create a regex with my requirements?
