regex / ng-pattern to accept certain characters

I'm using Angular's form validation with ng-pattern to validate a username with Special Charter

ng-pattern="/^[a-z]+@+[a-z]*$/"

My problem is that is limited to only one type of Special Charter to be placed at required place.

I would like this to support any of the special characters we use in alphabets

/^[a-zA-Z0-9/&quot&quot\\\]\[:;|=,+*?<>]+$/

allows: characters, digits and " / \ [ ] : ; | = , + * ? <>

It's not clear of what you define a Special Character, therefore assuming by your example that @ is a Special Character.

For example, if you want to support the characters @, ! and #, you will modify the regular expression like this:

ng-pattern="/^[a-z]+[@+!+#][a-z]*$/"
