                const pattern = /20[2-9][/\d]/g;

                if (val) {
                  if (pattern.test(val.toString())) {
                    return true;
                  } else {
                    return "invalid year of issue";
                  }
                } else {
                  return true;
                }

              },
            },
          ],
        },
      ],
    },
  ],
};

Any help please

Solution

  • I tried to recreate your issue, but it appears to validate as expected for me.

    The following code works for me:

    {
  type: 'number',
  name: 'issue_year',
  label: 'year of issue',
  required: true,
  validate: (val) => {
    if (!val) return true;
    const pattern = /20[2-9][/\d]/g;
    return pattern.test(val.toString()) || 'invalid year of issue';
  },
}
