What is imask?

The 'imask' npm package is a versatile input masking library that allows developers to create input masks for various types of data, such as dates, numbers, and custom patterns. It is highly customizable and supports dynamic masks, pattern masks, and more.

What are imask's main functionalities?

Date Mask

This feature allows you to create a date input mask. The code sample demonstrates how to apply a date mask to an input element with the pattern 'YYYY-MM-DD'.

const element = document.getElementById('date-input');
const maskOptions = { mask: Date, pattern: 'Y-`m-`d' };
const mask = IMask(element, maskOptions);

Number Mask

This feature allows you to create a number input mask. The code sample shows how to apply a number mask to an input element with a range from 0 to 10,000 and a thousands separator.

const element = document.getElementById('number-input');
const maskOptions = { mask: Number, min: 0, max: 10000, thousandsSeparator: ',' };
const mask = IMask(element, maskOptions);

Pattern Mask

This feature allows you to create a custom pattern mask. The code sample demonstrates how to apply a pattern mask to an input element for a credit card number format.

const element = document.getElementById('pattern-input');
const maskOptions = { mask: '0000-0000-0000-0000' };
const mask = IMask(element, maskOptions);

Dynamic Mask

This feature allows you to create dynamic masks that can switch between different patterns based on the input. The code sample shows how to apply a dynamic mask that switches between a phone number and a short code format.

const element = document.getElementById('dynamic-input');
const maskOptions = { mask: [{ mask: '+{7}[phone]' }, { mask: '0000-0000' }] };
const mask = IMask(element, maskOptions);
