Mail validation in laravel

I am trying to use laravel form validation.

My validation code is:

$this->validate(request(), [
'name' => 'required|alpha_num|max:255',
'email' => 'required|email|max:255|unique:users',
'register_no' => 'required|regex:/(1)[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{3}-[0-9]{3}/',
'password' => 'required|min:6'
]);


name takes everything whereas I want only letters & hyphen(-).
email takes gt@hj.fhdfygt@hj.fhdfy whereas I want like something@anything.com.
register_no says pattern doesn't match I wrote to return like 111-111-001.

name

email

gt@hj.fhdfygt@hj.fhdfy

something@anything.com

register_no

111-111-001

instead of alpha_num you can use regex (regular expression rule) for your custom formate like:

'name' => 'required|regex:/^[pLs-]+$/u',


the above is for alphabet without spaces you can create your own

u can use alpha_dash instead of alpha_num for name.
