Android Email Validation Simplest way

   String validemail= "[a-zA-Z0-9\\+\\.\\_\\%\\-\\+]{1,256}" +

                        "\\@" +

                        "[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\\-]{0,64}" +

                        "(" +

                        "\\." +

                        "[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\\-]{0,25}" +

                        ")+";

               String emal=email.getText().toString();

                Matcher matcherObj = Pattern.compile(validemail).matcher(emal);



                        if (matcherObj.matches()) {

                               Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(), "enter 

all details", Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                        }

                        else 
{
                            Toast.makeText(getApplicationContext(),"please enter 

valid email",Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

                        }

Assign a String variable to store the value of this EditText:

emailInput = mail.getText().toString().trim();

Use setError in your EditText:

if(!isValidEmail(emailInput)){
   mail.setError("Invalid"); /*"Invalid Text" or something like getString(R.string.Invalid)*/
   mail.requestFocus();
}

Create a method to check the email:

private boolean isValidEmail(String emailInput) {
    String EMAIL_PATTERN = "^[_A-Za-z0-9-\\+]+(\\.[_A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@"
            + "[A-Za-z0-9-]+(\\.[A-Za-z0-9]+)*(\\.[A-Za-z]{2,})$";

    Pattern pattern = Pattern.compile(EMAIL_PATTERN);
    Matcher matcher = pattern.matcher(emailInput);
    return matcher.matches();
}

here is a whole code for login validations......

public class LoginActivity extends AppCompatActivity {
private static final String TAG = "LoginActivity";
private static final int REQUEST_SIGNUP = 0;

@Bind(R.id.input_email) EditText _emailText;
@Bind(R.id.input_password) EditText _passwordText;
@Bind(R.id.btn_login) Button _loginButton;
@Bind(R.id.link_signup) TextView _signupLink;

@Override
public void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_login);
    ButterKnife.bind(this);

    _loginButton.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            login();
        }
    });

    _signupLink.setOnClickListener(new View.OnClickListener() {

        @Override
        public void onClick(View v) {
            // Start the Signup activity
            Intent intent = new Intent(getApplicationContext(), SignupActivity.class);
            startActivityForResult(intent, REQUEST_SIGNUP);
            finish();
            overridePendingTransition(R.anim.push_left_in, R.anim.push_left_out);
        }
    });
}

public void login() {
    Log.d(TAG, "Login");

    if (!validate()) {
        onLoginFailed();
        return;
    }

    _loginButton.setEnabled(false);

    final ProgressDialog progressDialog = new ProgressDialog(LoginActivity.this,
            R.style.AppTheme_Dark_Dialog);
    progressDialog.setIndeterminate(true);
    progressDialog.setMessage("Authenticating...");
    progressDialog.show();

    String email = _emailText.getText().toString();
    String password = _passwordText.getText().toString();

    // TODO: Implement your own authentication logic here.

    new android.os.Handler().postDelayed(
            new Runnable() {
                public void run() {
                    // On complete call either onLoginSuccess or onLoginFailed
                    onLoginSuccess();
                    // onLoginFailed();
                    progressDialog.dismiss();
                }
            }, 3000);
}


@Override
protected void onActivityResult(int requestCode, int resultCode, Intent data) {
    if (requestCode == REQUEST_SIGNUP) {
        if (resultCode == RESULT_OK) {

            // TODO: Implement successful signup logic here
            // By default we just finish the Activity and log them in automatically
            this.finish();
        }
    }
}

@Override
public void onBackPressed() {
    // Disable going back to the MainActivity
    moveTaskToBack(true);
}

public void onLoginSuccess() {
    _loginButton.setEnabled(true);
    finish();
}

public void onLoginFailed() {
    Toast.makeText(getBaseContext(), "Login failed", Toast.LENGTH_LONG).show();

    _loginButton.setEnabled(true);
}

public boolean validate() {
    boolean valid = true;

    String email = _emailText.getText().toString();
    String password = _passwordText.getText().toString();

    if (email.isEmpty() || !android.util.Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS.matcher(email).matches()) {
        _emailText.setError("enter a valid email address");
        valid = false;
    } else {
        _emailText.setError(null);
    }

    if (password.isEmpty() || password.length() < 4 || password.length() > 10) {
        _passwordText.setError("between 4 and 10 alphanumeric characters");
        valid = false;
    } else {
        _passwordText.setError(null);
    }

    return valid;
}

private void isValidEmail(String email_id) {

        if (email_id == null){
            checkTextView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            checkTextView.setText(LocaleController.getString("EnterValidEmail", R.string.EnterValidEmail));
            return;
        }
        if (android.util.Patterns.EMAIL_ADDRESS.matcher(email_id).matches()) {
            checkTextView.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        } else {
            checkTextView.setVisibility(View.VISIBLE);
            checkTextView.setText(LocaleController.getString("EnterValidEmail", R.string.EnterValidEmail));
        }

Take a textView ex.checkTextView and validate when the email is valid then the textview is gone otherwise it show the message

Answer 6

Try below code:

Just call below method like,

if(emailValidator(mail.getText().toString())){
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "valid email address",
                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

}else{
Toast.makeText(getActivity(), "invalid email address",
                    Toast.LENGTH_SHORT).show();

}

    public static boolean emailValidator(final String mailAddress) {

            Pattern pattern;
            Matcher matcher;

            final String EMAIL_PATTERN = "^[_A-Za-z0-9-\\+]+(\\.[_A-Za-z0-9-]+)*@" + "[A-Za-z0-9-]+(\\.[A-Za-z0-9]+)*(\\.[A-Za-z]{2,})$";

            pattern = Pattern.compile(EMAIL_PATTERN);
            matcher = pattern.matcher(mailAddress);
            return matcher.matches();

        }
