Advanced tools
Readme
Tiny toolkit to format, mask, and validate US Social Security numbers.
npm i parse-ssn
mask(value: string[, placeholder = '*']): string
import { mask } from 'parse-ssn'
mask('123121234') // => *****1234
mask('123121234', '#') // => #####1234
format(value: string[, separator = '-', existingPlaceholder = '*']): string
import { format } from 'parse-ssn'
format('123121234') // => 123-12-1234
format('123121234', ' ') // => 123 12 1234
Compose methods for additional flexibility:
import { format, mask } from 'parse-ssn'
const masked = mask('123121234') // => *****1234
const formatted = format(masked) // => ***-**-1234
When dealing with formatting of masks that use an existing placeholder other
than *
, you need to pass additional information about the format.
import { format } from 'parse-ssn'
format('#####1234', '-', '#') // => ###-##-1234
validate(value: string): boolean
Validation is based on information gathered from the Social Security Administration's website. If an edge case is missing, please open an issue.
import { validate } from 'parse-ssn'
validate('123121234') // => true
clean(value: string, exception = ''): string
By default, clean
strips out all characters except numbers, and trims the
string to nine characters. You probably want to use this first before mask
or
format
.
import { clean } from 'parse-ssn'
clean('123-12-1234') // => 123121234
clean(' 123 12-1234') // => 123121234
clean('123-12-1234-12345') // => 123121234
To clean a string that may be masked, pass an exception.
import { clean } from 'parse-ssn'
clean('*****1234', '*') // => *****1234
