Sanitization

Numora sanitizes every value through a sequential pipeline before formatting is applied. For the full architecture and pipeline diagram, see How It Works. The sections below cover each configurable sanitization feature.

Non-numeric Character Filtering

Numora automatically removes invalid characters while preserving:

  • Digits (0-9)
  • Decimal separator (configured via decimalSeparator)
  • Negative sign (-) if enableNegative is true

Try typing letters or special characters - only numbers will be kept

tsx
import { NumoraInput } from 'numora-react'

<NumoraInput maxDecimals={2} />

removeThousandSeparators

Numora exports a standalone removeThousandSeparators utility from the core package for stripping thousand separators from a formatted string. Useful when you need to extract a raw numeric value from a display string.

(You can also access the raw value directly via e.target.value in onChange - separators are always stripped.)

tsx
import { removeThousandSeparators } from 'numora'

removeThousandSeparators('1,234,567.89', ',') // → '1234567.89'
removeThousandSeparators('1.234.567,89', '.') // → '1234567,89'
removeThousandSeparators('1 234 567', ' ')    // → '1234567'
