How to test valid UUID/GUID?
How to check if variable contains valid UUID/GUID identifier ?
I'm currently interested only in validating types 1 and 4, but it's not limit for your answer.
Currently, UUID's are as specified in RFC4122.
Therefore to validate a UUID...
/^[0-9a-f]{8}-[0-9a-f]{4}-[1-5][0-9a-f]{3}-[89ab][0-9a-f]{3}-[0-9a-f]{12}$/i
...ensures you have a canonically formatted UUID that is Version 1 through 5 and is the appropriate Variant as per RFC4122.
NOTE: Braces "{" and "}" are not canonical. They are an artifact of some systems and usages.
Easy to modify the above regex to meet the requirements of the original question.
HINT: regex group/captures
regex to the rescue
/^[0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}$/.test('01234567-9ABC-DEF0-1234-56789ABCDEF0');
or with brackets
/^{?[0-9a-fA-F]{8}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{4}-[0-9a-fA-F]{12}}?$/
If you are using Node.js for development, it is recommended to use a package called Validator. It includes all the regexes required to validate different versions of UUID's plus you get various other functions for validation.
Here is the npm link: Validator
var a = 'd3aa88e2-c754-41e0-8ba6-4198a34aa0a2'
v.isUUID(a)
true
v.isUUID('abc')
false
v.isNull(a)
false
