Mask US phone number string with JavaScript

Question

I need regular express for US Phone Number format.I want to replace the phone number string into below US phone number string format in JavaScript.

var number = "4031234789";

And I want to mask it in below format:-

number = number.mask('(000) 000-0000');

Can anyone show me a regular expression for that in JavaScript?

This answer assumes you want the following format: (000) 000-0000 (as the OP states).

^{There are multiple different ways to implement this, but here are a couple different approaches:}

If you want to simply mask the number on the blur event (when the field loses focus), then you could use the following:

document.getElementById('phone').addEventListener('blur', function (e) {
  var x = e.target.value.replace(/\D/g, '').match(/(\d{3})(\d{3})(\d{4})/);
  e.target.value = '(' + x[1] + ') ' + x[2] + '-' + x[3];
});

<p>Masked on the blur event (remove focus).</p>
<input type="text" id="phone" placeholder="(555) 555-5555"/>

Alternatively, if you would rather mask the number while typing, you can listen to the input event and then conditionally mask the number based on the regex match:

document.getElementById('phone').addEventListener('input', function (e) {
  var x = e.target.value.replace(/\D/g, '').match(/(\d{0,3})(\d{0,3})(\d{0,4})/);
  e.target.value = !x[2] ? x[1] : '(' + x[1] + ') ' + x[2] + (x[3] ? '-' + x[3] : '');
});

<input type="text" id="phone" placeholder="(555) 555-5555"/>

This works great! I was able to easily adapt it to mask a foreign zip code. — PeterM, Feb 17 '16 at 17:41
Was searching for exactly this kind of simple function. Most were bloated and didn't work well. Woo! — mix3d, Jan 31 '17 at 20:58
Doesn't work in compatibility mode on IE11 :( but works beautifully when compatibility mode is off — LeSteelBox, Sep 21 '17 at 21:16

You can use regular expression and then concatenate to form your string.

var USNumber = "4031234789".match(/(\d{3})(\d{3})(\d{4})/);
USNumber = "(" + USNumber[1] + ") " + USNumber[2] + "-" + USNumber[3];
console.log(USNumber);

    document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", () => {
        const input = document.querySelector("#tel-input");

        input.addEventListener('input', (e) => {
            if (e.target.value)
            {
                const x = e.target.value.replace(/\D/g, '').match(/(\d{0,3})(\d{0,3})(\d{0,4})/);
                e.target.value =  + x[1] + (x[2] ? `-${x[2]}` : '') + (x[3] ? `-${x[3]}` : '')
            }
        });
    });

<input id="tel-input" type="tel" class="form-control" value="" placeholder="xxx-xxx-xxxx" maxlength="12"/>

You can use my package https://github.com/jsonmaur/coverup, which can mask the input string onblur and maintain the symbols in the string.
