MaskedInputA React component for <input> masking, built on top of inputmask-core.

npm install react-maskedinput --save
The browser bundle exposes a global MaskedInput variable and expects to find a global React variable to work with.
Give MaskedInput a mask and an onChange callback:
import React from 'react'
import MaskedInput from 'react-maskedinput'
class CreditCardDetails extends React.Component {
  state = {
    card: '',
    expiry: '',
    ccv: ''
  }
  _onChange = (e) => {
    this.setState({[e.target.name]: e.target.value})
  }
  render() {
    return <div className="CreditCardDetails">
      <label>
        Card Number:{' '}
        <MaskedInput mask="1111 1111 1111 1111" name="card" size="20" onChange={this._onChange}/>
      </label>
      <label>
        Expiry Date:{' '}
        <MaskedInput mask="11/1111" name="expiry" placeholder="mm/yyyy" onChange={this._onChange}/>
      </label>
      <label>
        CCV:{' '}
        <MaskedInput mask="111" name="ccv" onChange={this._onChange}/>
      </label>
    </div>
  }
}
Create some wrapper components if you have a masking configuration which will be reused:
function CustomInput(props) {
  return <MaskedInput
    mask="1111-WW-11"
    placeholder="1234-WW-12"
    size="11"
    {...props}
    formatCharacters={{
      'W': {
        validate(char) { return /\w/.test(char ) },
        transform(char) { return char.toUpperCase() }
      }
    }}
  />
}
mask : stringThe masking pattern to be applied to the <input>.
See the inputmask-core docs for supported formatting characters.
onChange : (event: SyntheticEvent) => anyA callback which will be called any time the mask's value changes.
This will be passed a SyntheticEvent with the input accessible via event.target as usual.
Note: this component currently calls onChange directly, it does not generate an onChange event which will bubble up like a regular <input> component, so you must pass an onChange if you want to get a value back out.
formatCharacters: ObjectCustomised format character definitions for use in the pattern.
See the inputmask-core docs for details of the structure of this object.
placeholderChar: stringCustomised placeholder character used to fill in editable parts of the pattern.
See the inputmask-core docs for details.
value : stringA default value for the mask.
placeholder : stringA default placeholder will be generated from the mask's pattern, but you can pass a placeholder prop to provide your own.
size : number | stringBy default, the rendered <input>'s size will be the length of the pattern, but you can pass a size prop to override this.
Any other props passed in will be passed as props to the rendered <input>, except for the following, which are managed by the component:
maxLength - will always be equal to the pattern's .lengthonKeyDown, onKeyPress & onPaste - will each trigger a call to onChange when necessaryFAQs
