5 Validation with RegEx for Bulgarian phone numbers

I want to check my phone field in my form in laravel 5 with this RegEx validation rule:

(\+359|0)\s?8(\d{2}\s\d{3}\d{3}|[789]\d{7})

I tried this:

'phone' => 'required|regex:(\+359|0)\s?8(\d{2}\s\d{3}\d{3}|[789]\d{7})'

But my form doesn't catch this validation. I think that something is missing in my RegEx.

You can use Laravel-Phone package for Validation, Formatting and more functionality.

In your case you can specify you country like this :

'phone' => 'required|phone:BG'

BG = Bulgaria

Just add

<?php 
 return ['phone'      => 'required|regex:/^\+?[^a-zA-Z]{5,}$/'];
?>

I think this is fairly enough. If there is no example what is the format, use can add phone number like:

+359878XXX, +359 878 XXX, +359 87 8X XX, +(359) 878 XXX, 0878-XX-XX-XX.

You need delimiters (in my example, /) around your regex:

'phone' => 'required|regex:/^(\+359|0)\s?8(\d{2}\s\d{3}\d{3}|[789]\d{7})$/
