I am creating a control in a Razor Control Library. I am trying to only allow a few keys presses to be allowed in a text box. They are:
I can easily do this in Javascript, by using the Keycode. In JS, I would do this:
keyPress: function (e) {
var datatype = e.currentTarget.getAttribute("data-type");
settings.valueChange.call();
//add 110, 190 for decimal
if ($.inArray(e.keyCode, [46, 8, 9, 27, 13]) !== -1 ||
// Allow: Ctrl+A,Ctrl+C,Ctrl+V, Command+A
((e.keyCode == 65 || e.keyCode == 86 || e.keyCode == 67) && (e.ctrlKey === true || e.metaKey === true)) ||
// Allow: home, end, left, right, down, up
(e.keyCode >= 35 && e.keyCode <= 40)) {
// let it happen, don't do anything
if (e.keyCode == 86) {
//PASTE
}
return;
}
if (e.keyCode === 78) {
e.preventDefault();
//its an N, do some stuff
} else if ((e.shiftKey || (e.keyCode < 48 || e.keyCode > 57)) && (e.keyCode < 96 || e.keyCode > 105)) {
e.preventDefault();
}
}
But, how would I do this in Blazor/Razor? The KeyboardEventArgs does not seem to provide the KeyCode. I could use jsInterop to call my JS function, but, again, KeyboardEventArgs does not provide the JS KeyCode. How can I either accomplish this in Blazor or get the numeric KeyCode, so I can pass this to my JS function?
You can use more Blazor way to do that and check the string every time the text is changed.
@using System.Text.RegularExpressions;
<input @bind-value="@InputValue" @bind-value:event="oninput"/>
<h4>@InputValue </h4>
@code {
private string _inputVal = "";
public string InputValue {
get => _inputVal;
set {
if((double.TryParse(value,out double d) && d>0)//is the number like 1.23
|| value.ToLower()=="n" || value=="" )//or is N,n or empty str
_inputVal = value;
}
}
}
Pasting and arrow keys work as expected.
