Date formatter for an input field which formats the given numbers in MM/DD/YYYY format which also accepts NA letters in Angular

by

I have a requirement where a user should enter date in "MM/DD/YYYY" if available or else should be able to enter "NA" in the input field. Here is the stackblitz link where I am trying to achieve this functionality.

[Formatter not Validation Regex]

Note: User should be able to enter numbers or only N and A in NA sequence in the input field. Date validation is not required but the formatted numbers should be in this way ../../…. OR NA.

  1. You need add an OR expression to your regex for contemplate the case of NA.

    Now, the regex will looks like this:

    ^([0-2][0-9]|(3)[0-1])(\/)(((0)[0-9])|((1)[0-2]))(\/)\d{4}|NA$

    In your regex, the two alternative are anchored separately:

    • ^([0-2][0-9]|(3)[0-1])(\/)(((0)[0-9])|((1)[0-2]))(\/)\d{4} MM/DD/YYYY
    • | Or
    • NA$ NA

    See the regex demo.

    It will acept:

    • NA
    • MM/DD/YYYY
