ngx-mask Do not allow negative value for the currency input

Stack Overflow Asked by Ashot Aleqsanyan on November 28, 2020

I need to block the type of negative value and do not allow to type more numbers than 99,999,999.99 for my input.

Here is the code which I am using for the currency input.

<input mask="separator.2" thousandSeparator="," placeholder="Currency">

Any help will be appreciated.

Also here is the Stackblitz example.

UPDATE

I found the answer to the second part of my question.
now the input looks like this

<input mask="separator.2" thousandSeparator="," separatorLimit="10000000"  placeholder="Currency">

Now just needs to be blocked the type of - character

I have created the directive for blocking the type of negative(-) values.

Here is the directive example.

import { Directive, ElementRef, OnInit, OnDestroy } from "@angular/core";
import { fromEvent } from "rxjs/internal/observable/fromEvent";
import { Subscription } from "rxjs";

@Directive({
  // tslint:disable-next-line: directive-selector
  selector: "[onlyPositive]"
})
export class OnlyPositiveDirective implements OnInit, OnDestroy {
  subscriber$: Subscription;

  constructor(private element: ElementRef<HTMLInputElement>) {}

  ngOnInit() {
    const input = this.element.nativeElement;
    this.subscriber$ = fromEvent(input, 'input').subscribe(
      (event: KeyboardEvent) => {
        if (input.value.includes('-')) {
          input.value = input.value.replace(/-/g, '');
        }
      }
    );
  }

  ngOnDestroy() {
    this.subscriber$.unsubscribe();
  }
}

Usage example

<input onlyPositive mask="separator.2" thousandSeparator="," separatorLimit="99999999" [allowNegativeNumbers]="false" placeholder="Currency">

After Adams Advice I have changed the keypress event to the input event

Correct answer by Ashot Aleqsanyan on November 28, 2020

Demo you can solve with keypress event

<input (paste)="onPaste($event)" mask="separator.2" thousandSeparator=","  separatorLimit="10000000" [allowNegativeNumbers]="false" placeholder="Currency" class="form-control" (keypress)="isPositive($event)">

in component

  isPositive(event: any) { return event.key === '-' ? false : true; }

and block paste

 onPaste(event){
    event.preventDefault();
  }
