Alnum

• Alnum()
• Alnum(string ...$additionalChars)

Validates whether the input is alphanumeric or not.

Alphanumeric is a combination of alphabetic (a-z and A-Z) and numeric (0-9) characters.

v::alnum()->assert('foo 123');
// → "foo 123" must contain only letters (a-z) and digits (0-9)

v::alnum(' ')->assert('foo 123');
// Validation passes successfully

v::alnum()->assert('100%');
// → "100%" must contain only letters (a-z) and digits (0-9)

v::alnum('%')->assert('100%');
// Validation passes successfully

v::alnum('%', ',')->assert('10,5%');
// Validation passes successfully

You can restrict case using the Lowercase and Uppercase validators.

v::alnum()->uppercase()->assert('example');
// → "example" must contain only uppercase letters

Message template for this validator includes {{additionalChars}} as the string of extra chars passed as the parameter.
