React currency-masked input

<CurrencyMaskedInput /> Creates an input that gets masked as currency, in React.

Note: Dollar sign and styling not included

i.e.,

Entering a 1 shows: $0.01.

Entering 11 shows: $0.11.

Entering 110 shows: $1.10.

And so on.

Usage

Install via npm: npm install react-currency-masked-input.

It accepts all properties you'd normally set on an input, so:

// your standard input

render() {
  return <input name="myInput" ref="myInput" placeholder="0" required />
}

Becomes a matter of simply replacing the tag to CurrencyMaskedInput:

// with a currency mask
import CurrencyMaskedInput from 'react-currency-masked-input'

//...

render() {
  return <CurrencyMaskedInput name="myInput" ref="myInput" placeholder="0" required />
}

Usage notes:

• renders an input with type="number" and pattern="\d*", but will override those props if you pass them in.
• Will use the value prop passed in as an initial value, but will take over from there.
• Can manually update value by triggering a re-render of the component. It's handy for asynchronous value updates, like:

componentDidMount() {
  ajaxCall().done((rate) => this.setState({ rate }))
}

render() {
  return <CurrencyMaskedInput value={this.state.rate} />
}

• Calls onChange prop after updating its internal value. First argument is the original event, the second is the masked value.
• To maintain a reference to the input, it's best to attach a ref prop to , since it will be inherited.
• Sets the input value on the component instance, so you can reference it on a ref, e.g., myComponent.refs.input.value, as you would with a normal ref.
