如何在Go中检查字符串是否仅包含字母字符？

I am trying to check the username whether is only containing alphabetic characters. What is the idiomatic way to check it in Go?

you may use unicode.IsLetter like this working sample code:

package main

import "fmt"
import "unicode"

func IsLetter(s string) bool {
    for _, r := range s {
        if !unicode.IsLetter(r) {
            return false
        }
    }
    return true
}
func main() {
    fmt.Println(IsLetter("Alex")) // true
    fmt.Println(IsLetter("123"))  // false
}

or if you have limited range e.g. 'a'..'z' and 'A'..'Z', you may use this working sample code:

package main

import "fmt"

func IsLetter(s string) bool {
    for _, r := range s {
        if (r < 'a' || r > 'z') && (r < 'A' || r > 'Z') {
            return false
        }
    }
    return true
}
func main() {
    fmt.Println(IsLetter("Alex"))  // true
    fmt.Println(IsLetter("123 a")) // false

}

or if you have limited range e.g. 'a'..'z' and 'A'..'Z', you may use this working sample code:

package main

import "fmt"
import "regexp"

var IsLetter = regexp.MustCompile(`^[a-zA-Z]+$`).MatchString

func main() {
    fmt.Println(IsLetter("Alex")) // true
    fmt.Println(IsLetter("u123")) // false
}

Here's the way I'd do it:

import "strings"

const alpha = "abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz"

func alphaOnly(s string) bool {
   for _, char := range s {  
      if !strings.Contains(alpha, strings.ToLower(string(char))) {
         return false
      }
   }
   return true
}

Assuming you're only looking for ascii letters, you would normally see this implemented as a regular expression using the alpha character class [[:alpha:]] or the equivalent [A-Za-z]

isAlpha := regexp.MustCompile(`^[A-Za-z]+$`).MatchString

for _, username := range []string{"userone", "user2", "user-three"} {
    if !isAlpha(username) {
        fmt.Printf("%q is not valid
", username)
    }
}

You can also do this concisely without importing any packages

func isLetter(c rune) bool {
    return ('a' <= c && c <= 'z') || ('A' <= c && c <= 'Z')
}

func isWord(s string) bool {
    for _, c := range s {
        if !isLetter(c) {
            return false
        }
    }
    return true
}
