#jquery.inputmask

jquery.inputmask is a jquery plugin which create an input mask.

The plugin is based on the idea of the maskedinput plugin of Josh Bush (http://digitalbush.com/projects/masked-input-plugin), but has finer control over the 'mask-definitions' and is fully compatible with the ui-datepicker

A definition can have a cardinality and have multiple prevalidators.

Example of some new definitions:

     'm': { //month
        validator: function(chrs, buffer) {
            var dayValue = buffer.join('').substr(0, 3);
            return $.inputmask.defaults.aliases['dd/mm/yyyy'].regex.month.test(dayValue + chrs);
        },
        cardinality: 2,
        prevalidator: [{ validator: "[01]", cardinality: 1}]
    },
    'y': { //year
        validator: function(chrs, buffer) {
            if ($.inputmask.defaults.aliases['dd/mm/yyyy'].regex.year.test(chrs)) {
                var dayMonthValue = buffer.join('').substr(0, 6);
                if (dayMonthValue != "29/02/")
                    return true;
                else {
                    var year = parseInt(chrs);  //detect leap year
                    if (year % 4 == 0)
                        if (year % 100 == 0)
                        if (year % 400 == 0)
                        return true;
                    else return false;
                    else return true;
                    else return false;
                }
            } else return false;
        },
        cardinality: 4,
        prevalidator: [
            { validator: "[12]", cardinality: 1 },
            { validator: "(19|20)", cardinality: 2 },
            { validator: "(19|20)\\d", cardinality: 3 }
            ]
    }
},
insertMode: false

These allow for a finer date validation then 99/99/9999 which also allows 33/33/3333 for example. In the jquery.inputmask.extensions.js you find a full date input validation which takes days, months & leap years into account.

Also extra features like mask-repetitions (greedy and non-gready) and many other additions are included. In the examples you will find more about them.

Usage:

Include the js-files:

<script src="jquery.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="jquery.inputmask.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script src="jquery.inputmask.extensions.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

Define your masks:

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y");  //direct mask
   $("#phone").inputmask("mask", {"mask": "(999) 999-9999"}); //specifying fn & options
   $("#tin").inputmask({"mask": "99-9999999"}); //specifying options only
});

Extra options:

change the placeholder

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y",{ "placeholder": "*" });
});

or a multi-char placeholder

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y",{ "placeholder": "dd/mm/yyyy" });
});

execute a function when the mask is completed, incomplete or cleared

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y",{ "oncomplete": function(){ alert('inputmask complete'); } });
   $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y",{ "onincomplete": function(){ alert('inputmask incomplete'); } });
   $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y",{ "oncleared": function(){ alert('inputmask cleared'); } });
});

clearIncomplete - clear the incomplete input on blur

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y",{ "clearIncomplete": true } });
});

mask repeat function

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#number").inputmask({ "mask": "9", "repeat": 10 });  // ~ mask "9999999999"
});

mask non-greedy repeat function

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#number").inputmask({ "mask": "9", "repeat": 10, "greedy": false });  // ~ mask "9" or mask "99" or ... mask "9999999999"
});

get the unmaskedvalue

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#number").inputmask('unmaskedvalue');
});

set a value and apply mask

this can be done with the traditionnal jquery.val function (all browsers) or javascript value property for browsers which implement lookupGetter or getOwnPropertyDescriptor

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#number").val(12345);

   var number = document.getElementById("number");
   number.value = 12345;
});

with the autoUnmaskoption you can change the return of $.fn.val (or value property) to unmaskedvalue or the maskedvalue

$(document).ready(function(){
   	$('#<%= tbDate.ClientID%>').inputmask({ "mask": "d/m/y", 'autoUnmask' : true});	//  value: 23/03/1973
	alert($('#<%= tbDate.ClientID%>').val());	// shows 23031973     (autoUnmask: true)

	var tbDate = document.getElementById("<%= tbDate.ClientID%>");
    alert(tbDate.value);	// shows 23031973     (autoUnmask: true)
});

add custom definitions

$.extend($.inputmask.defaults.definitions, {
    'f': {
        "validator": "[0-9\(\)\.\+/ ]",
        "cardinality": 1,
        'prevalidator': null
    }
});

set defaults

$.extend($.inputmask.defaults, {
    'autounmask': true
});

numeric input direction

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('#test').inputmask('€ 999.999.999,99', { numericInput: true });    //123456  =>  € ___.__1.234,56
});

remove the inputmask

$(document).ready(function(){
    $('#test').inputmask('remove');
});

escape special mask chars

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#months").inputmask("m \\months");
});

clearMaskOnLostFocus

remove the empty mask on blur or when not empty removes the optional trailing part

$(document).ready(function(){
    $("#ssn").inputmask("999-99-9999",{placeholder:" ", clearMaskOnLostFocus: true }); //default
});

Simple Optional Masks

When clearMaskOnLostFocus: true is set in the options (default), the mask will always clearout masks marked as optional when not filled in. The optional part should always be at the end of the mask! Full choice of optionality will be implemented in v2 of the plugin.

For example, given:

$('#test').inputmask('999[-AAA]');

While the field has focus and is blank, users will see the full mask ___-___. When the required part of the mask is filled and the field loses focus, the user will see 123. When both the required and optional parts of the mask are filled out and the field loses focus, the user will see 123-ABC.

aliases option

First you have to create an alias definition (more examples can be found in jquery.inputmask.extensions.js)

$.extend($.inputmask.defaults.aliases, {
        'date': {
            mask: "d/m/y"
        },
        'dd/mm/yyyy': {
	    alias: "date"
	}
});

use:

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#date").inputmask("date");    //   => equals to    $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y");
});

or use the dd/mm/yyyy alias of the date alias:

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#date").inputmask("dd/mm/yyyy");   //    => equals to    $("#date").inputmask("d/m/y");
});

auto upper/lower- casing inputmask

see jquery.inputmask.extensions.js for an example how to define "auto"-casing in a definition (definition A) casing can be null, "upper" or "lower"

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#test").inputmask("999-AAA");    //   => 123abc ===> 123-ABC
});

getemptymask command

return the default (empty) mask value

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#test").inputmask("999-AAA");
   var initialValue = $("#test").inputmask("getemptymask");  // initialValue  => "___-___"
});

onKeyUp / onKeyDown option

Use this to do some extra processing of the input when certain keys are pressed. This can be usefull when implementing an alias, ex. decimal alias, autofill the digits when pressing tab.

see jquery.inputmask.extensions.js for some examples

hasMaskedValue

Check wheter the returned value is masked or not; currently only works reliable when using jquery.val fn to retrieve the value

$(document).ready(function(){
	function validateMaskedValue(val){}
	function validateValue(val){}

	var val = $("#test").val();
    if($("#test").inputmask("hasMaskedValue"))
	  validateMaskedValue(val); 
   else validateValue(val); 
});

Supported markup options

RTL attribute

<input id="test" dir="rtl" />

readonly attribute

<input id="test" readonly="readonly" />

disabled attribute

<input id="test" disabled="disabled" />

maxlength attribute

<input id="test" maxlength="4" />

Alias definitions

date aliases

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#date").inputmask("dd/mm/yyyy");
   $("#date").inputmask("mm/dd/yyyy");
   $("#date").inputmask("date"); // alias for dd/mm/yyyy
});

The date aliases take leapyears into account. There is also autocompletion on day, month, year. For example:

input: 2/2/2012 result: 02/02/2012 input: 352012 result: 03/05/2012 input: 3530 result: 03/05/2030 input: rightarrow result: the date from today

numeric aliases

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#numeric").inputmask("decimal");
   $("#numeric").inputmask("non-negative-decimal");
   $("#numeric").inputmask("integer");
});

There is autocompletion on tab with decimal numbers.

Define the radixpoint

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#numeric").inputmask("decimal", { radixPoint: "," });
});

Define the number of digits after the radixpoint

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#numeric").inputmask("decimal", { digits: 3 });
});

Grouping support through: autoGroup, groupSeparator, groupSize

$(document).ready(function(){
   $("#numeric").inputmask("decimal", { radixPoint: ",", autoGroup: true, groupSeparator: ".", groupSize: 3 });
});
