react-input-pin-code
Advanced tools
An accessible and simple pin input component built with styled-components for ReactJS.

Here to see documentation and examples.
Source code at https://github.com/luffy84217/react-input-pin-code.
To get started, install and save in your package.json dependencies, run:
npm install react-input-pin-code styled-components
or
yarn add react-input-pin-code styled-components
Please note that styled-components is peer dependency.
You can use the following two ways to import module.
import { PinInput } from 'react-input-pin-code'; // ES Module
or;
var PinInput = require('react-input-pin-code').PinInput; // CommonJS Module
import React from 'react';
import { PinInput } from 'react-input-pin-code';
export default () => {
const [values, setValues] = React.useState(['', '', '']);
return (
<PinInput
values={values}
onChange={(value, index, values) => setValues(values)}
/>
);
};
Filling one character at a time for each input. When a character is entered, the focus transfers to the next input automatically in the sequence until all inputs are filled in. Here is the explanation of behavior below:
Backspace when it is empty in the input will move focus to the previous input (if any) and clear the value of.PinInput expects an array of strings for the values prop. The number of input fields rendered is equal to the length of the array.
You can pass id or name or containerClassName or inputClassName prop.ClassName and name will be shared amongst the inputs, which means they will each have their name set to this value, it is comfortable for the use of pseudo element in global.css file. id will append an index to any string you provide and pass to the corresponding input. For example, if you pass foo as id and bar as name and there are four inputs, the resulting ids are foo-0, foo-1, foo-2, and foo-3 and each input has the name bar.
You can control the size of the inputs with the size prop. It comes in four sizes.
| Variety | Size | Font Size |
|---|---|---|
| xs | 1.5rem (24px) | 0.75rem (12px) |
| sm | 2rem (32px) | 0.875rem (14px) |
| md | 2.5rem (40px) | 1rem (16px) |
| lg | 3rem (48px) | 1.125rem (18px) |
By default, the PinInput is passed number as type prop so it accepts only numeric values to show up. To add support for alphanumeric values, pass the type prop and set its value to either text or number.
PinInput provides validate prop to specify native attribute pattern, which is a regular expression which the input's value must match in order for the value to pass constraint validation.
Format prop specify a pure function to transform raw input. For example, to set the values to upper case:
(char: string) => char.toUpperCase()
You can pass validate prop to validate input values, if value of the input doesn't match test, it will show error border instantly enter, while it will only show valid border after all inputs are filled in and pass validation.
You can disable this behavior by setting showState prop to false.
You can set mask prop to true to prevent from showing input values. It is equivalent to setting input native attribute type to password.
By default, PinInput moves focus automatically to the next input once a field is filled. It also transfers focus to a previous input when Backspace is pressed with focus on an empty input.
To disable this behavior, set autoTab prop to false
PinInput offers a way let it focus from the start. Simply set autoFocus prop to true to focus the first input upon initial mounting of the component.
PinInput provides onComplete event handler to access input values, unlike onChange, onComplete only triggers when all inputs are filled in.
NOTICE if you offer a list of allowed characters to
validateprop,onCompletewill trigger ony when all input values pass validation.
By default, PinInput placeholder is (○), you can change that if you want.
Try copying & pasting 1234 into any of the inputs.
By default, you can only change one input at a time, but if one of the input field receives a longer string by pasting into it, PinInput attempts to validate the string and fill the other inputs.
There is also an uncontrolled version, StatefulPinInput, which manages its own state. The default input length for this component is four, but you can change that by passing number to length prop. Aslo you can pass initialValue as an initial value for StatefulPinInput.
import React from 'react';
import { StatefulPinInput } from 'react-input-pin-code';
export default () => {
return <StatefulPinInput length={4} initialValue="1234" />;
};
