[BUG]: genui's email check rejects every real address #2854
Description
- I have searched the existing issues to make sure this bug has not already been reported.
Describe the Bug
genui's email check rejects every real email address. EmailFunction.executeSync (basic_functions.dart:312) builds its pattern as:
final emailRegex = RegExp(r'^[^@]+@[^@]+\.[^@]+\$');It is a raw string, so \$ is a backslash followed by a dollar sign rather than the end-of-string anchor. The pattern asks for an address that literally ends in \$.
| value | today | with the anchor |
|---|---|---|
[email protected] |
false |
true |
[email protected] |
false |
true |
[email protected]\$ |
true |
true |
nope |
false |
false |
So the only values that pass are the ones nobody would type.
This is invisible right now because of #2853: checks never fail either way. Once that is fixed this one starts rejecting valid input, which is why it seemed worth filing separately.
Steps to Reproduce
final context = DataContext(
model..update(DataPath('/e'), '[email protected]'),
DataPath.root,
functions: BasicCatalogItems.asCatalog().functions,
);
// false
print(await context.evaluateConditionStream({
'call': 'email',
'args': {'value': {'path': '/e'}},
}).first);Expected Behavior
email('[email protected]') is true.
Additional Context
The fix is dropping the backslash, RegExp(r'^[^@]+@[^@]+\.[^@]+$'), which is what the table above measures. Happy to send it along with the #2853 work if you want them together.
