ReactJS MaskedInput Component

The MaskedInput component for ReactJS represents an input widget which uses a mask to distinguish between proper and improper user input.
You can define phone number, ssn, zip code, dates, etc. masks by setting the jqxMaskedInput mask property.

Prerequisites

Refer to ReactJS Getting Started before you start with this help topic.

Configuration

The MaskedInput component for ReactJS requires the following imports.

 
import React from 'react';
import ReactDOM from 'react-dom';
import JqxMaskedInput from 'jqwidgets-react/react_jqxmaskedinput.js';

Then we create our component class. Properties and methods are put as ReactJS props.

Finally we render our class in the desired HTML element:

Events Methods & Properties

In order to bind to any event, change any property or call any method, we need a reference to the component.
For that we use the ReactJS "ref" Callback Attribute:

Now, when we have a reference, we need to call the desired event/property/method.
This is done in the componentDidMount() ReactJS Component Lifecycle method.

Events

The change event is triggered when the value is changed and the control's focus is lost.

The following example demonstrates how to add an event listener:

Methods & Properties

This is how you call methods & props:

Every component have a method setOptions which accepts a object as an argument. This object contains component settings.

Every component also have a method getOptions which returns a object containing the component settings.
