Django validators RegexValidator does not show custom message when field is incorrect

Question

I need to add RegexValidator to URLField. It works, but I want to customize it's message. I added parameter message with my custom text, but it still shows

Enter a valid URL." instead of my text

Django version: 2.1.5

class ExampleModel(models.Model):
    url_address = models.URLField(
        validators=[RegexValidator('https://www.google.com/.*', message='This is not a Google URL')])

add this code='invalid_url' as your last parameter of RegexValidator. — Ahtisham

You need to add code as a third parameter to your RegexValidator

like this:

RegexValidator('https://www.google.com/.*', message='This is not a Google URL', code='invalid_url')
