Cleave.js
Cleave.js has a simple purpose: to help you format input text content automatically.
Features
- Credit card number formatting
- Phone number formatting (i18n js lib separated for each country to reduce size)
- Date formatting
- Numeral formatting
- Custom delimiter, prefix and blocks pattern
- CommonJS / AMD mode
- ReactJS component
- AngularJS directive (1.x)
- ES Module
TL;DR the demo page
Why?
The idea is to provide an easy way to increase input field readability by formatting your typed data. By using this library, you won't need to write any mind-blowing regular expressions or mask patterns to format input text.
However, this isn't meant to replace any validation or mask library, you should still sanitize and validate your data in backend.
Installation
npm
npm install --save cleave.js
CDN
cleave.js is available on jsDelivr and on cdnjs.com
old school
Grab file from dist directory
Usage
Simply include
<script src="cleave.min.js"></script>
<script src="cleave-phone.{country}.js"></script>
cleave-phone.{country}.js
addon is only required when phone shortcut mode is enabled. See more in documentation: phone lib addon section
Then have a text field
<input class="input-phone" type="text"/>
Now in your JavaScript
var cleave = new Cleave('.input-phone', {
phone: true,
phoneRegionCode: '{country}'
});
.input-element
here is a unique DOM element. If you want to apply Cleave for multiple elements, you need to give different CSS selectors and apply to each of them, effectively, you might want to create individual instance by a loop, e.g. loop solution
More examples: the demo page
CommonJS
var Cleave = require('cleave.js');
require('cleave.js/dist/addons/cleave-phone.{country}');
var cleave = new Cleave(...)
AMD
require(['cleave.js/dist/cleave.min', 'cleave.js/dist/addons/cleave-phone.{country}'], function (Cleave) {
var cleave = new Cleave(...)
});
ES Module
import Cleave from 'cleave.js';
var cleave = new Cleave(...)
import Cleave from 'node_modules/cleave.js/dist/cleave-esm.min.js';
var cleave = new Cleave(...)
TypeScript
Types are contributed by the community and are available via npm install --save-dev @types/cleave.js
. Once installed, you can import Cleave like the following:
import Cleave = require('cleave.js');
Types for the React-component are also available and can be imported in the same way.
import Cleave = require('cleave.js/react');
ReactJS component usage
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import Cleave from 'cleave.js/react';
Then in JSX:
class MyComponent extends React.Component {
constructor(props, context) {
super(props, context);
this.onCreditCardChange = this.onCreditCardChange.bind(this);
this.onCreditCardFocus = this.onCreditCardFocus.bind(this);
}
onCreditCardChange(event) {
console.log(event.target.value);
console.log(event.target.rawValue);
}
onCreditCardFocus(event) {
}
render() {
return (
<Cleave placeholder="Enter your credit card number"
options={{creditCard: true}}
onFocus={this.onCreditCardFocus}
onChange={this.onCreditCardChange} />
);
}
}
As you can see, here you simply use <Cleave/>
as a normal <input/>
field
- Attach HTML
<input/>
attributes - Pass in the custom
options
prop - Add ReactJS
onChange
event listener

, Browserify
and more in documentation: ReactJS component usage
AngularJS directive usage
First include the directive module:
<script src="cleave.js/dist/cleave-angular.min.js"></script>
<script src="cleave.js/dist/addons/cleave-phone.{country}.js"></script>
And in your model:
angular.module('app', ['cleave.js'])
.controller('AppController', function($scope) {
$scope.onCreditCardTypeChanged = function(type) {
$scope.model.creditCardType = type;
};
$scope.model = {
rawValue: ''
};
$scope.options = {
creditCard: {
creditCard: true,
onCreditCardTypeChanged: $scope.onCreditCardTypeChanged
}
};
});
Then easily you can apply cleave
directive to input
field:
<div ng-controller="AppController">
<input ng-model="model.rawValue" ng-whatever="..." type="text" placeholder="Enter credit card number"
cleave="options.creditCard"/>
</div>
