Email Validation (React Native). Returning the result as 'invalid' for all the entries

Question

I am trying to validate a users email, by checking it against an expression. But the result i am getting is invalid for all the entries.

UPDATED CODE

Answer 1

Having a function that validates the email (probably in some separate module as you are going to reuse it),

export function validateIsEmail(email) {
  return /^\w+([\.-]?\w+)*@\w+([\.-]?\w+)*(\.\w{2,3})+$/.test(email);
}

You can validate email input,

Live validation:

         {
            setEmail(emailText);
            setInlineValidations({
              ...inlineValidations,
              emailNotValid: !validateIsEmail(emailText),
            });
          }}
        />

In this example setEmail and setInlineValidations are state setters defined by the useState hook, example const [email, setEmail] = useState('');, you can of course adapt this to your way of handling state.
