Masks
These can be passed as a

Usage
import createNumberMask from 'text-mask-addons/dist/createNumberMask'
// First, you need to create the `numberMask` with your desired configurations
const numberMask = createNumberMask({
prefix: '',
suffix: ' $' // This will put the dollar sign at the end, with a space.
})
// ...then pass `numberMask` to the Text Mask component as the mask
emailMask
emailMask
formats user input as an email address.
Usage
import emailMask from 'text-mask-addons/dist/emailMask'
// ...then pass `emailMask` to the Text Mask component as the mask
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.
createAutoCorrectedDatePipe
The createAutoCorrectedDatePipe
returns a autoCorrectedDatePipe
, which can help the user in entering a date.
The createAutoCorrectedDatePipe
accepts a string specifying date format and an object with the following keys:
-
minYear
(number): the minimum year allowed in the date fieldmask
. -
maxYear
(number): the maximum year allowed in the date fieldmask
.
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.
It also blocks the user from entering invalid days or months such as 33/44
.
For createAutoCorrectedDatePipe
to work properly, the Text Mask component needs to be
configured with
keepCharPositions
set to true
.
Usage
import createAutoCorrectedDatePipe from 'text-mask-addons/dist/createAutoCorrectedDatePipe'
const autoCorrectedDatePipe = createAutoCorrectedDatePipe('mm/dd/yyyy HH:MM')
// As you can see in the line above, you can pass a string argument to `createAutoCorrectedDatePipe`
// to give it the order of day, month, year, hour and minute in your `mask`.
// ...now you can pass `autoCorrectedDatePipe` to the Text Mask component as the `pipe`
