You need to define the regex by adding / at the begging and the end.
'code' => ['required', 'string', 'distinct', 'regex:/^#([0-9A-F]{3}|[0-9A-F]{6}|[0-9A-F]{8})#$/'],

preg_match(): No ending delimiter '#'
As the title said, I have this rule
'stock.colorEntries.*.color.hexCode' => ['required', 'string', 'distinct',
'regex:#^([0-9A-F]{3}|[0-9A-F]{6}|[0-9A-F]{8})$#']
I get this error :
ErrorException: preg_match(): No ending delimiter '#' found in file
My validations rules are already in array format, no pipes at all, even this error still occurs
The weird thing is when I assign the same rule to a non wrapped attribute in my request form, this error doesn't occurs. Maybe it's a bug when using regex for nested attributes

@MohamedTammam Not working (the # is also defined as a delimiter)

@GTS-MEG I updated the answer, please try.

I do believe this is a bug I Ihave this piece of code
public function rules(): array
{
return [
/* 'stock.colorEntries.*.color.hexCode' => ['required', 'string', 'distinct',
'regex:'.GlobalRegex::COLOR_HEX_CODE_PATTERN],*/
'a' => ['required', 'string', 'distinct',
'regex:'.GlobalRegex::COLOR_HEX_CODE_PATTERN],
];
}
This code seems to work, but when I uncomment 'stock.colorEntries.*.color.hexCode attribute, I get the error again

Anything up ?

@GTS-MEG Can you make a simple example of how to recreate it? Or make a repo on github where we can see it? As I understand you, it only breaks in very specific circumstances?
Level 1
@Sinnbeck It breaks when I apply the regular expression rule on nested attributes as I posted the sample code
Level 1
@sinnbeck Replication : Having the following payload as a json format :
{
"a":"123456",
"b" : {
"c" : [{
"d": {
"test": "123456"
}
}]
}
}
Having this FormRequest to validate the payload :
public function rules(): array
{
return [
'b.c.*.d.test' => ['required', 'string', 'distinct',
'regex:'.GlobalRegex::COLOR_HEX_CODE_PATTERN],
'a' => ['required', 'string', 'distinct',
'regex:'.GlobalRegex::COLOR_HEX_CODE_PATTERN],
];
}
const COLOR_HEX_CODE_PATTERN = '#^([0-9A-F]{3}|[0-9A-F]{6}|[0-9A-F]{8})$#';
This error occurs when validating the test attribute
