# Input Amount
`lion-input-amount` component is based on the generic text input field. Its purpose is to provide a way for users to fill in an amount.
For formatting, we use Intl NumberFormat with some overrides.
For parsing user input, we provide our own parser that takes into account a number of heuristics, locale and ignores invalid characters.
Valid characters are digits and separators. Formatting happens on-blur.
If there are no valid characters in the input whatsoever, it will provide an error feedback.

loadDefaultFeedbackMessages();

## Features
- Based on [lion-input](?path=/docs/forms-system-overview--page)
- Makes use of [formatNumber](?path=/docs/localize-numbers) for formatting and parsing.
- Option to show currency as a suffix
- Option to override locale to change the formatting and parsing
- Option to provide additional format options overrides
- Default label in different languages
- Can make use of number specific [validators](?path=/docs/forms-validation-overview--page) with corresponding error messages in different languages
- IsNumber (default)
- MinNumber
- MaxNumber
- MinMaxNumber
## How to use
### Installation
```sh
npm i --save @lion/input-amount
```
```js
import '@lion/input-amount/lion-input-amount.js';
```
## Examples
### Negative Number
It will accept negative numbers with a minus symbol.
{html`
`}
```html
```
### Set currency suffix
You can optionally set a currency suffix with the `currency` attribute.
{html`
`}
```html
```
### Force locale
Locale can be forced for a specific `lion-input-amount`. It will format the amount according to this locale.
{html`
`}
> The separators are now flipped due to Dutch locale. On top of that, due to JOD currency, the minimum amount of decimals is 3 by default for this currency.
```html
```
### Faulty prefilled
This example will show the error message by prefilling it with a faulty `modelValue`.
> If there is 1 or more digit in the input, it will ignore invalid characters instead of showing an error feedback message.
{html`
`}
```js
import { loadDefaultFeedbackMessages } from '@lion/validate';
loadDefaultFeedbackMessages();
```
```html
```
### Show no decimals
You can override certain formatting options similar to how you would do this when using Intl NumberFormat.
This example shows formatting to whole numbers.
{html`
`}
```html
```
### Paste behavior
For copy pasting numbers into the input-amount, there is slightly different parsing behavior.
Normally, when it receives an input with only 1 separator character, we check the locale to determine whether this character is a thousand separator, or a decimal separator.
When a user pastes the input from a different source, we find this approach (locale-based) quite unreliable, because it may have been copied from somewhere with a different locale.
Therefore, we use the heuristics based method to parse the input when it is pasted by the user.
#### What this means
If the user in an English locale types `400,0` it will become `4,000.00`
because the locale determines that the comma is a thousand separator, not a decimal separator.
If the user in an English locale pastes `400,0` instead, it will become `400.00` because we cannot rely on locale.
Therefore, instead, we determine that the comma cannot be a thousand separator because it is not followed by 3 digits after.
It is more likely to be a decimal separator.
