## What's new?

Usage via CDN is available (see «[Usage with CDN](https://github.com/GoncharukOrg/react-input/tree/main/packages/number-format#usage-with-cdn)»).

The `input-number-format` event and `onNumberFormat` method are no longer available in newer versions, focusing work on only using React's own events and methods such as `onChange`, since the `input-number-format` event and `onNumberFormat` method cannot be explicitly coordinated with React's events and methods, making such usage and event firing order non-obvious.

To use the useful data from the `detail` property of the `input-number-format` (`onNumberFormat`) event object, you can also use the utilities described in the «[Utils](https://github.com/GoncharukOrg/react-input/tree/main/packages/number-format#utils)» section.

**Documentation for version `v1` is available [here](https://github.com/GoncharukOrg/react-input/tree/v1/packages/number-format).**

> Since the package is based on the `Intl.NumberFormat` constructor, it is important to consider that the functionality of both the package itself and its properties will depend on your browser versions. You can view support for browser versions [here](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/NumberFormat).
>
> If you are using TypeScript, the properties of the `InputNumberFormat` component will be typed based on your version of TypeScript, so make sure you are using the latest stable version of TypeScript in your project.
>
> You can also pass other properties available element `input` default or your own components, when integrated across the property `component`.

## Usage with React

The `@react-input/number-format` package provides two options for using formatting. The first is the `InputNumberFormat` component, which is a standard input element with additional logic to handle the input. The second is using the `useNumberFormat` hook, which needs to be linked to the `input` element through the `ref` property.

One of the key features of the `@react-input/number-format` package is that it can format numbers according to the desired language using the [`Intl.NumberFormat`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Intl/NumberFormat/NumberFormat#parameters) constructor.

Let's see how we can easily implement formatting based on the given locale and the minimum number of decimal places using the `InputNumberFormat` component:

```tsx
import { InputNumberFormat } from '@react-input/number-format';

export default function App() {
  return <InputNumberFormat locales="en" maximumFractionDigits={2} />;
}
```

You can work with the `InputNumberFormat` component in the same way as with the `input` element, with the difference that the `InputNumberFormat` component uses additional logic to value formatting.

Now the same thing, but using the `useNumberFormat` hook:

```tsx
import { useNumberFormat } from '@react-input/number-format';

export default function App() {
  const inputRef = useNumberFormat({
    locales: 'en',
    maximumFractionDigits: 2,
  });

  return <input ref={inputRef} />;
}
```

The `useNumberFormat` hook takes the same properties as the `InputNumberFormat` component, except for the `component` properties. Both approaches are equivalent, but the use of the `InputNumberFormat` component provides additional capabilities, which will be discussed in the section «[Integration with custom components](https://github.com/GoncharukOrg/react-input/tree/main/packages/number-format#integration-with-custom-components)».

## Usage with CDN

To use the library's capabilities, you can also load it via CDN.

When loaded, you get a global `ReactInput.NumberFormat` class, calling it with the specified formatting parameters will create a new object with two methods, the first one is `register`, which applies the formatting when typing into the specified element, and the second one is `unregister`, which undoes the previous action. The following example illustrates this usage:

```js
const numberFormat = new ReactInput.NumberFormat({
  locales: 'en',
  maximumFractionDigits: 2,
});

const elements = document.getElementsByName('amount');

elements.forEach((element) => {
  numberFormat.register(element);
});

// If necessary, you can turn off formatting while typing.
// elements.forEach((element) => {
//   numberFormat.unregister(element);
// });
```

Note that this way you can register multiple elements to which input formatting will be applied.

> While you can use a class to format input, using a hook or component in the React environment is preferable due to the optimizations applied, where you don't have to think about when to call `register` and `unregister` for input formatting to work.

## Initializing the value

To support the concept of controlled input, `@react-input/number-format` does not change the value passed in the `value` property of the `input` element, which means that the value in the state exactly matches the value in the input, so set the initialized value to something that can match the formatted value at any point in the input. If you make a mistake, you will see a warning in the console about it.

With controlled input, when the input value is not formatted, you should use the `format` utility described in the chapter «[Utils](https://github.com/GoncharukOrg/react-input/tree/main/packages/number-format#utils)» to substitute the correct value, for example:

```tsx
import { useState } from 'react';
import { useNumberFormat, format } from '@react-input/number-format';

const options = {
  locales: 'en',
  maximumFractionDigits: 2,
};

export default function App() {
  const inputRef = useNumberFormat(options);
  const defaultValue = format(123456789, options);

  const [value, setValue] = useState(defaultValue); // `defaultValue` or '123,456,789'

  return <input ref={inputRef} value={value} onChange={(event) => setValue(event.target.value)} />;
}
```

With uncontrolled input, you do not need to worry about the input value being unformatted, as the value will be formatted automatically upon initialization.

For consistent and correct behavior, the `type` property of the `input` element or the `InputNumberFormat` component must be set to `"text"` (the default). If you use other values, the formatting will not be applied and you will see a warning in the console.

## Examples of using

The base use without specifying a locale returns a formatted string in the default locale and with default options:

```tsx
import { InputNumberFormat } from '@react-input/number-format';

export default function App() {
  // Entering 3500 will print '3,500' to the console if in US English locale
  return <InputNumberFormat onChange={(event) => console.log(event.target.value)} />;
}
```

The following example show some variations of localized number formats. To get the format of the language used in your application's user interface, be sure to specify that language (and possibly some fallback languages) with the `locales` argument:

```tsx
import { InputNumberFormat } from '@react-input/number-format';

// Entering 123456.789 will print:

export default function App() {
  return (
    <>
      {/* India uses thousands/lakh/crore separators */}
      <InputNumberFormat
        locales="en-IN"
        onChange={(event) => console.log(event.target.value)} // "1,23,456.789"
      />
      {/* When requesting a language that may not be supported, such as Balinese, include a fallback language, in this case Indonesian */}
      <InputNumberFormat
        locales={['ban', 'id']}
        onChange={(event) => console.log(event.target.value)} // "123.456,789"
      />
      {/* He nu extension key requests a numbering system, e.g. Chinese decimal */}
      <InputNumberFormat
        locales="zh-Hans-CN-u-nu-hanidec"
        onChange={(event) => console.log(event.target.value)} // "一二三,四五六.七八九"
      />
      {/* Arabic in most Arabic speaking countries uses real Arabic digits */}
      <InputNumberFormat
        locales="ar-EG"
        onChange={(event) => console.log(event.target.value)} // "١٢٣٤٥٦٫٧٨٩"
      />
      {/* German uses comma as decimal separator and period for thousands */}
      <InputNumberFormat
        locales="de-DE"
        format="currency"
        currency="EUR"
        onChange={(event) => console.log(event.target.value)} // "123.456,78 €"
      />
      {/* Formatting with units */}
      <InputNumberFormat
        locales="pt-PT"
        format="unit"
        unit="kilometer-per-hour"
        onChange={(event) => console.log(event.target.value)} // "123 456,789 km/h"
      />
    </>
  );
}
```

## Integration with custom components

The `InputNumberFormat` component makes it easy to integrate with custom components allowing you to use your own styled components. To do this, you need to pass the custom component to the `forwardRef` method provided by React. `forwardRef` allows you automatically pass a `ref` value to a child element ([more on `forwardRef`](https://reactjs.org/docs/forwarding-refs.html)).

Then place your own component in the `component` property. The value for the `component` property can be either function components or class components.

With this approach, the `InputNumberFormat` component acts as a HOC, adding additional logic to the `input` element.

Here's how to do it:

```tsx
import { forwardRef } from 'react';

import { InputNumberFormat } from '@react-input/number-format';

interface CustomInputProps {
  label: string;
}

// Custom input component
const CustomInput = forwardRef<HTMLInputElement, CustomInputProps>(({ label }, forwardedRef) => {
  return (
    <>
      <label htmlFor="custom-input">{label}</label>
      <input ref={forwardedRef} id="custom-input" />
    </>
  );
});

// Component with InputNumberFormat
export default function App() {
  return <InputNumberFormat component={CustomInput} label="Label for custom component" />;
}
```

> The `InputNumberFormat` component will not forward properties available only to the `InputNumberFormat`, so as not to break the logic of your own component.

## Integration with Material UI

If you are using [Material UI](https://mui.com/), you need to create a component that returns a `InputNumberFormat` and pass it as a value to the `inputComponent` property of the Material UI component.

In this case, the Material UI component expects your component to be wrapped in a `forwardRef`, where you will need to pass the reference directly to the `ref` property of the `InputNumberFormat` component.

Here's how to do it using the `InputNumberFormat` component:

```tsx
import { forwardRef } from 'react';

import { InputNumberFormat, type InputNumberFormatProps } from '@react-input/number-format';
import { TextField } from '@mui/material';

// Component with InputNumberFormat
const ForwardedInputNumberFormat = forwardRef<HTMLInputElement, InputNumberFormatProps>((props, forwardedRef) => {
  return <InputNumberFormat ref={forwardedRef} locales="en" maximumFractionDigits={2} {...props} />;
});

// Component with Material UI
export default function App() {
  return (
    <TextField
      InputProps={{
        inputComponent: ForwardedInputNumberFormat,
      }}
    />
  );
}
```

or using the `useNumberFormat` hook:

```tsx
import { useNumberFormat } from '@react-input/number-format';
import { TextField } from '@mui/material';

export default function App() {
  const inputRef = useNumberFormat({ locales: 'en', maximumFractionDigits: 2 });

  return <TextField inputRef={inputRef} />;
}
```

> The examples correspond to Material UI version 5. If you are using a different version, please read the [Material UI documentation](https://mui.com/material-ui/).

## Usage with TypeScript

The `@react-input/number-format` package is written in [TypeScript](https://www.typescriptlang.org/), so you have full type support out of the box. Additionally, you can import the types you need via `@react-input/number-format` or `@react-input/number-format/types`.

### Property type support

Since the `InputNumberFormat` component supports two use cases (as an `input` element and as an HOC for your own component), `InputNumberFormat` takes both use cases into account to support property types.

By default, the `InputNumberFormat` component is an `input` element and supports all the attributes supported by the `input` element. But if the `component` property was passed, the `InputNumberFormat` will additionally support the properties available to the integrated component. This approach allows you to integrate your own component as conveniently as possible, not forcing you to rewrite its logic, but using a formatting where necessary.

```tsx
import { InputNumberFormat, type InputNumberFormatProps, type NumberFormatOptions } from '@react-input/number-format';

export default function App() {
  // Here, since no `component` property was passed,
  // `InputNumberFormat` returns an `input` element and takes the type:
  // `NumberFormatOptions & { locales?: Intl.LocalesArgument } & React.InputHTMLAttributes<HTMLInputElement>` (the same as `InputNumberFormatProps`)
  return <InputNumberFormat />;
}
```

```tsx
import { InputNumberFormat, type InputNumberFormatProps, type NumberFormatOptions } from '@react-input/number-format';

import { CustomInput, type CustomInputProps } from './CustomInput';

export default function App() {
  // Here, since the `component` property was passed,
  // `InputNumberFormat` returns the CustomInput component and takes the type:
  // `NumberFormatOptions & { locales?: Intl.LocalesArgument } & CustomInputProps` (the same as `InputNumberFormatProps<typeof CustomInput>`)
  return <InputNumberFormat component={CustomInput} />;
}
```

You may run into a situation where you need to pass rest parameters (`...rest`) to the `InputNumberFormat` component. If the rest parameters is of type `any`, the `component` property will not be typed correctly, as well as the properties of the component being integrated. this is typical TypeScript behavior for dynamic type inference.

To fix this situation and help the `InputNumberFormat` correctly inject your component's properties, you can pass your component's type directly to the `InputNumberFormat` component.

```tsx
import { InputNumberFormat } from '@react-input/number-format';

import { CustomInput } from './CustomInput';

export default function Component(props: any) {
  return <InputNumberFormat<typeof CustomInput> component={CustomInput} {...props} />;
}
```

## Testing and development

To make it easier to work with the library, you will receive corresponding messages in the console when errors occur, which is good during development, but not needed in a production application. To avoid receiving error messages in a production application, make sure that the `NODE_ENV` variable is set to `"production"` when building the application.

## Utils

`@react-input/number-format` provides utilities to make things easier when processing a value. You can use them regardless of using the `InputNumberFormat` component or the `useNumberFormat` hook.

You can use utilities by importing them from the package or calling them from an instance of the `NumberFormat` class. With the second option, you don't need to pass parameters to the methods, as shown in the examples below, for example when using with a CDN:

```ts
const numberFormat = new ReactInput.NumberFormat({
  locales: 'en-IN',
  format: 'currency',
  currency: 'USD',
});

numberFormat.unformat('$1,23,456.78'); // returns: "123456.78"
```

### `format`

Formats the value using the specified locales and options.

Takes two parameters, where the first is a number or string to format, and the second is an object with options you use when formatting.

The result is exactly the same as the value received from the input. Useful when you need to get a formatted value without raising the input event.

Since `InputNumberFormat` works exactly like the `input` element, `InputNumberFormat` will not change the value outside of the input event for a controlled input, so you may end up in a situation where the `input` element has a value that does not match the desired format, such as when initializing a value received from a backend (see «[Initializing the value](https://github.com/GoncharukOrg/react-input/tree/main/packages/number-format#initializing-the-value)» for more details).

```ts
format(123456.78, { locales: 'en-IN', format: 'currency', currency: 'USD' });
// returns: "$1,23,456.78"
```

### `unformat`

Unformats the value using the specified locales.

Takes two parameters, where the first is the value to format, and the second is the locale you are using when formatting. Specifying the locale is required to recognize digits, decimal separator, and minus signs, as they may differ across locales.

Returns a string as the numeric equivalent of the formatted value. Returning a string is due to the fact that a string stores integer and decimal values ​​regardless of their length, unlike a number which has a limit of 2^5. Using a string, you can convert it to a number at your discretion, as well as separate the integer and decimal parts and use the conversion to `BigInt`.

```ts
unformat('$1,23,456.78', 'en-IN');
// returns: "123456.78"
```

## Migration to v2

If you are upgrading from version 1 to version 2, there are a number of important changes you need to take into account.

### onNumberFormat

The `input-number-format` event and `onNumberFormat` method are no longer available in newer versions, focusing work on only using React's own events and methods such as `onChange`, since the `input-number-format` event and `onNumberFormat` method cannot be explicitly coordinated with React's events and methods, making such usage and event firing order non-obvious.

Thus, you should use `onChange` instead of the `onNumberFormat` method.

Additionally, if you are referencing data in the `detail` property of the `onNumberFormat` event object, you should use the utilities described in the [`Utils`](https://github.com/GoncharukOrg/react-input/tree/main/packages/number-format#utils) section instead, for example:

instead of

```tsx
import { InputNumberFormat } from '@react-input/number-format';

// ...

const locales = 'en';

return (
  <InputNumberFormat
    locales={locales}
    onNumberFormat={(event) => {
      const { value, number } = event.detail;
    }}
  />
);
```

use

```tsx
import { InputNumberFormat, unformat } from '@react-input/number-format';

// ...

const locales = 'en';

return (
  <InputNumberFormat
    locales={locales}
    onChange={(event) => {
      const value = event.target.value;
      const number = Number(unformat(value, locales));
    }}
  />
);
```
