Hi again Muhammad,
d2:validatePattern and d2:length could conveniently be backported - they are now supported in the latest 2.22 build.

Calle: Added a few examples to the user manual, which can be found here: http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/user/html/ch31s05.html <http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/user/html/ch31s05.html>

The program rules generally access data within one enrollment for tracker programs. Data values from data elements and tracked entity attributes, along with constants and a set of variables defined here: http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/user/html/ch30s03.html <http://dhis2.github.io/dhis2-docs/master/en/user/html/ch30s03.html>
For event capture, the program rules access data values from the current event, and events within the same program and organization unit. 

Not to say we cant expand this in future releases, please comment and or create blueprints for what would be useful in your context.

Best regards,
Markus

The below example checks wether the address field is containing letters and spaces, followed by a space and then a number. The regex is [\w ]+ \d+ - notice that the backslashes needs to be escaped:
