regex digits formatting

I want to use regex specifically! to check if a mobile number contains 9 or more digits. I am a little unsure as to how to format this exactly.

I want to check inside an if statement like the below

if(mob >= (.{9})

This is clearly not correct, any help would be great

You need to check of numbers not for all the characters. And also use test() to check if string matches regex or not.

const testMob = str => /^\+?[0-9]{9,}$/.test(str);

console.log(testMob('+123456789')) //true
console.log(testMob('+1234567890')) //true
console.log(testMob('+133333'))  //false

Use test with the regex pattern ^\+?[0-9]{9,}$:

var number = "+123456789";
if (/^\+?[0-9]{9,}$/.test(number)) {
    console.log("MATCH");
}
