It allows you to add a mask to EditText

GIF of its use

Version

5.0.2

Installation

Step 1: Add MavenCentral and Jitpack to your repositories in your project level build.gradle file:

allprojects {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }
}

Step 2: Add the library as a dependency in your module level build.gradle file:

Groovy:

dependencies {
    implementation 'io.github.vicmikhailau:MaskedEditText:5.0.2'
}

Kotlin:

dependencies {
    implementation("io.github.vicmikhailau:MaskedEditText:5.0.2")
}

Usage

Just add in xml custom MaskedEditText with attribute app:mask="your_mask" like below:

<com.vicmikhailau.maskededittext.MaskedEditText
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        app:mask="your_mask" />

Or add TextChangedListener for your EditText like in following code:

val formatter = MaskedFormatter("your_mask")
mEditText.addTextChangedListener(MaskedWatcher(formatter, mEditText))

Connect to the MaskedWatcher for your MaskedEditText through:

mMaskedEditText.addMaskedTextChangedListener
mMaskedEditText.doBeforeMaskedTextChanged
mMaskedEditText.doOnMaskedTextChanged
mMaskedEditText.doAfterMaskedTextChanged

Or use MaskedWatcher reference:

maskedWatcher.addTextChangedListener

For create your mask you need to use following keys:

ANYTHING KEY = *
DIGIT KEY = #
UPPERCASE KEY = U
LOWERCASE KEY = L
ALPHA NUMERIC KEY = A
CHARACTER KEY = ?
HEX KEY = H

For example: you would like create a mask for a mobile number in format (029)777-77-77. Just use the simple mask "(###)###-##-##".

If you want to get text without mask just use following code:

  • For getting unmasked text for mEdtMaskedCustom: MaskedEditText just use

    val unamskedString = mEdtMaskedCustom.unMaskedText
    
  • For getting unmasked text for default EditText just use

    val text = mEditText.text.toString()
    val unmaskedString = formatter.formatString(text).unMaskedString
    

Kotlin dependency in pure Java project

Add in your build.gradle: implementation "org.jetbrains.kotlin:kotlin-stdlib-jdk7:$kotlin_version" #27
