pwaxMask

From -0 to Big.js: all your numeric input edge cases covered.

pwaxMask is a feature-rich JavaScript library for numeric input masking and formatting.
It goes beyond simple input masks, offering a complete toolkit for building professional, locale-aware numeric fields.

With pwaxMask, you can confidently handle edge cases like -0, localized grouping, high-precision math with Big.js, advanced rounding modes, and even custom presets for clean, declarative HTML.

Key features

• Locale-aware formatting
  Automatic decimal and thousands separators via Intl.

• Advanced rounding modes
  Half-up, half-down, half-even (bankers), truncation, ceil/floor, etc.

• Flexible presets system
  Define reusable configurations once (e.g., currency, percentage, business rules) and keep your HTML clean:

  <inputdata-preset="myPreset">

• Grouping styles (standard, Indian, or custom)
  Built-in groupStyle: 'standard' → 1,234,567 and groupStyle: 'indian' → 12,34,567.
  Need something bespoke? Use a custom pattern like [3,2,2].

• Big.js integration
  Ready for high-precision math beyond native Number.

• Rich input behavior
  Step handling, clamping, signed zeros, percentage/permille/basis-points units.

• Advanced copy & paste and controls
  Smart paste handling, arrow up/down with acceleration, PageUp/PageDown for larger steps, and mouse-wheel increments (when enabled).

• Digit normalization
  Converts non-Latin digits (Arabic, Persian, Devanagari, Bengali, Tamil, Khmer, Thai, Lao…) into ASCII '0'..'9' for consistent parsing.

• Empty value policies
  Decide what getValue() returns when the field is empty: 0, null, or ''.

• Prefix / suffix control
  Add symbols (e.g., "€ " or " %") before or after the number.

• Sign position & style
  Place the sign before or after the prefix, or use accounting-style parentheses.

• Minus key behavior
  Choose between always-negative or toggle mode.

• Dual decimal separator input
  Allow both . and , when unambiguous.

• Percent parsing modes
  Handle % during paste/parse: off, auto, or symbolOnly.

• Clamping strategies
  Apply clamping always, only on blur, or not at all; also applies on paste.

• Focus-based behaviors
  Auto-select on focus, select once, or select only the decimal part.

• Live min/max enforcement
  Strategies: none, lenient, or strict.

• Raw value access
  Show the unformatted value on focus, copy raw value with Ctrl/Cmd+C.

• Accessibility (ARIA)
  Fine-tune aria-invalid persistence, error message durations, and aria-valuetext.

• Mobile-friendly input
  Control inputmode dynamically (numeric, text, decimal), with forced modes when needed.

• Validation & schema
  Define declarative constraints (multipleOf, allowedRange, disallow, customMessage).

• Units & scaling
  Built-in support for %, ‰, ‱, basis points, with configurable unitFactor and unitDisplay.

• Validation modes
  Hard blocking (block) or soft visual-only feedback.

• Undo/redo history
  Configurable stack with safe, non-destructive revert.

• Locking state
  Temporarily lock/unlock an element with optional opacity dimming and lock icon.

• Custom signs & symbols
  Replace - or + with any Unicode symbol (single or multi-codepoint).

• Info & error messaging
  Emit events for inline help or validation errors.

• Plugin architecture
  Extend core behavior with custom plugins (e.g., transform paste, post-format tweaks).

• MutationObserver auto-attach
  Automatically bind to new DOM nodes.

• Declarative configuration
  Control everything via JS options or HTML data-* attributes.
