Masks
These can be passed as a
mask
to Text Mask.
createNumberMask
createNumberMask
returns a numberMask
function that will format user input as currency.
createNumberMask
accepts an object with the following keys:
prefix
(string): what to display before the amount. Defaults to '$'
.suffix
(string): what to display after the amount. Defaults to empty string.includeThousandsSeparator
(boolean): whether or not to separate thousands. Defaults to to true
.thousandsSeparatorSymbol
(string): character with which to separate thousands. Default to ','
.allowDecimal
(boolean): whether or not to allow the user to enter a fraction with the amount. Default to false
.decimalSymbol
(string): character that will act as a decimal point. Defaults to '.'
decimalLimit
(number): how many digits to allow after the decimal. Defaults to 2
requireDecimal
(boolean): whether or not to always include a decimal point and placeholder for decimal digits
after the integer. Defaults to false
.
Usage
import createNumberMask from 'text-mask-addons/dist/createNumberMask.js'
const numberMask = createNumberMask({
prefix: '',
suffix: ' $'
})
emailMask
emailMask
formats user input as an email address.
Usage
import emailMask from 'text-mask-addons/dist/emailMask.js'
Technical side note: even though emailMask
is passed as a mask
, it is actually made of both a mask
and a pipe
bundled
together for convenience. The Text Mask component knows how to unwrap and separate the pipe
and mask
functions to use them.
Pipes
These functions here can be passed as a
pipe
to Text Mask.
autoCorrectedMmddyyyyPipe
The autoCorrectedMmddyyyyPipe
helps the user in entering a date in the MM/DD/YYYY
format.
For example, if the user enters a value
larger than 1
in the 1st slot of month, it appends 0
to it. That is 4
=> 04
. It does a similar thing for the
day slots.
And for the year, when the user enters 0
in the 1st slot of the year, it transforms that to 200
.
It also blocks the user from entering invalid days or months such as 33/44
.
For autoCorrectedMmddyyyyPipe
to work properly, the Text Mask component needs to be
configured with
keepCharPositions
set to true
.
Usage
import autoCorrectedMmddyyyyPipe from 'text-mask-addons/dist/autoCorrectedMmddyyyyPipe.js'
