Skript: Feature Request: Is alphanumeric

[farwl]

I think there should be a condition to check if a string is alphanumeric. (Containing only letters and numbers)

chat:
    message is alphanumeric:
        send "Message is alphanumeric"

You can use regex for now, I guess...

[farwl]

Yeah I do, but it would be better to have a condition for it.

I'm on Minehut :P

Well, then use regex. I don't know why I even commented in here.

TuSKe has some RegEx expressions you can use.
If this is going to be implemented, please also add RegEx support to Skript :)

This is what I have in MirrorUtils:

#
# STRING IS OF CHARACTER TYPE
# Checks if a string only has one type of characters.
#
# Usage:
# + "abc123" is alphabetic
# Result: [condition] does not pass
#
condition %string% is (1¦(unicode|alpha)|2¦alphanumeric|3¦alphabetic|4¦all lowercase|5¦all uppercase):
    check:
        if parse mark = 1:
            set {_boolean} to StringUtils.isAlpha(expr-1)
        else if parse mark = 2:
            set {_boolean} to StringUtils.isAlphanumeric(expr-1)
        else if parse mark = 3:
            set {_boolean} to StringUtils.isAlphabetic(expr-1)
        else if parse mark = 4:
            set {_boolean} to StringUtils.isAllLowerCase(expr-1)
        else:
            set {_boolean} to StringUtils.isAllUpperCase(expr-1)
        continue if {_boolean} = true

Regex is something that I wouldn't want in Skript for a variety of reasons, it's better for it to be in an addon rather than Skript itself.

We could implement this condition though.

[Blueyescat]

@FranKusmiruk some example reasons?
