Data Input
Set, read, or copy a value on a single line.
import { Input } from 'ui-patterns/DataInputs/Input'
export function DataInputDemo() {
return <Input containerClassName="w-full max-w-sm" placeholder="Hello world" />
}
Referred to as Input
in code, not DataInput
. Also not to be confused with the atomic Input component.
Usage
Read-only values
Input should be used for read-only values that can be copied or otherwise interacted with, as the input element is both keyboard and mouse-friendly.
import { Input } from 'ui-patterns/DataInputs/Input'
export function DataInputWithCopy() {
return <Input containerClassName="w-full max-w-sm" readOnly copy value="1234567890" />
}
Sensitive values
Inputs with sensitive values can be both revealed and copied, but only in succession. This reduces the amount of actions on screen, thus simplifying the interface.
import { Input } from 'ui-patterns/DataInputs/Input'
export function DataInputWithRevealCopy() {
return <Input containerClassName="w-full max-w-sm" readOnly reveal copy value="1234567890" />
}
You can also partially truncate the value by overriding the placeholder value.
Consider if the value needs to be revealed in the first place, as only copying is sufficient in most cases.
A happy medium might be to display a partially masked value but saving the actual value in the clipboard. To do this, pass a pre-masked string as the value
prop and override the onCopy
callback to copy the real value.
import { Input } from 'ui-patterns/DataInputs/Input'
export function DataInputWithCopySecret() {
const actualValue = 'sb_secret_1234567890'
const maskedValue = 'sb_secret_123•••••••'
return (
<Input
containerClassName="w-full max-w-sm"
readOnly
copy
value={maskedValue}
onCopy={() => {
navigator.clipboard.writeText(actualValue)
}}
/>
)
}
Password managers
In some cases, you may need to add the following attribute to your input to prevent password managers from applying their widgets and dropdowns to the input:
<Input
readOnly
copy
value={name}
data-1p-ignore // 1Password
data-lpignore="true" // LastPass
data-form-type="other" // Dashlane
data-bwignore // Bitwarden
/>
