This mask type is used to create special formatting of numbers or strings. The specified regular expression is used to select parts of the input and replace that with the string that you define in the replace parameter.
Parameters
| Name | Description | Type | Required | ||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| regexp-search | a pattern that selects parts of the input
| string | true | ||
| replace | a string to replace the selected parts of the input | string | true | ||
| toupper | a boolean value used to apply uppercase before regular expression is evaluated | boolean | false | ||
| tolower | a boolean value used to apply lowercase before regular expression is evaluated | boolean | false | ||
| prefix | a string value that will be added before regular expression is evaluated | string | false | ||
| postfix | a string value that will be added before regular expression is evaluated | string | false |
Supported attribute types
- integer
- number
- percentage
- currency
- string
While parsing a mask of this type the initial input string is transformed in the following order:
- changing the case of the string to upper or to lower case
- adding the prefix
- adding the postfix
- performing the regular expression search
- completing the transformation using the replace string
Examples
| To display | as | use these parameters |
|---|---|---|
| 123456789 | 1234-56-789 | regexp-search: 0*([0-9]{4})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{3})$ replace: $1-$2-$3 prefix: 00000000 |
| 1234aa | 1234 AA | regexp-search: ([0-9]{4})\s*([A-Z]{2})$ replace: $1 $2 toupper: true |
| 571518833 | 57.15.18.833 | regexp-search: 0*([0-9]{2})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{2})([0-9]{3})$ replace: $1.$2.$3.$4 prefix: 00000000 |
