isAlphaNumeric

Test whether a string contains only alphanumeric characters.

Usage

var isAlphaNumeric = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-alphanumeric' );

isAlphaNumeric( value )

Tests whether a string contains only alphanumeric characters.

var bool = isAlphaNumeric( 'abc0123456789' ); // returns true

Notes

  • For non-string values, the function returns false.
  • Alphanumeric is defined as the characters a-zA-Z and the numeric characters 0-9.

Examples

var isAlphaNumeric = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-alphanumeric' ); var out = isAlphaNumeric( 'abs0123456789' ); // returns true out = isAlphaNumeric( '0xffffff' ); // returns true out = isAlphaNumeric( '' ); // returns false out = isAlphaNumeric( 123 ); // returns false

CLI

Usage

Usage: is-alphanumeric [options] [<string>] Options: -h, --help Print this message. -V, --version Print the package version. --split sep Delimiter for stdin data. Default: '/\\r?\\n/'. 

Notes

  • If the split separator is a regular expression, ensure that the split option is either properly escaped or enclosed in quotes.

    # Not escaped... $ echo -n $'beep\n01abc23456789' | is-alphanumeric --split /\r?\n/ # Escaped... $ echo -n $'beep\n01abc23456789' | is-alphanumeric --split /\\r?\\n/
  • The implementation ignores trailing delimiters.

Examples

$ is-alphanumeric 01abc23456789 true

To use as a standard stream,

$ echo -n '0123456789' | is-alphanumeric true

By default, when used as a standard stream, the implementation assumes newline-delimited data. To specify an alternative delimiter, set the split option.

$ echo -n 'beep\t01abc23456789' | is-alphanumeric --split '\t' false true
