Email Validation

Email address validation

Add the following method to check whether an email address is valid or not:

private boolean isValidEmailId(String email){
  return Pattern.compile("^(([\\w-]+\\.)+[\\w-]+|([a-zA-Z]{1}|[\\w-]{2,}))@"
              + "((([0-1]?[0-9]{1,2}|25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9])\\.([0-1]?"
              + "[0-9]{1,2}|25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9])\\."
              + "([0-1]?[0-9]{1,2}|25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9])\\.([0-1]?"
              + "[0-9]{1,2}|25[0-5]|2[0-4][0-9])){1}|"
              + "([a-zA-Z]+[\\w-]+\\.)+[a-zA-Z]{2,4})$").matcher(email).matches();
}

The above method can easily be verified by converting the text of an EditText widget into a String:

if(isValidEmailId(edtEmailId.getText().toString().trim())){
  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "Valid Email Address.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}else{       
  Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "InValid Email Address.", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();
}

Email Address validation with using Patterns

  if (Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS.matcher(email).matches()){
       Log.i("EmailCheck","It is valid");
  }
