Provides two functions:
- An automatic formatting script to handle HTML text inputs.
- A function to check if a provided text is a valid RUT (chilean national ID).
Simply add the following line to the <head> section of your HTML file:
<script src="scripts/rutFormatter.js" charset="utf-8"></script>Then, using the RutFormatter object, enable/disable autoformatting in your input by simply calling
the enable() and disable() methods, passing a selector as argument.
<input type="text" id="myInput" placeholder="RUT">
<script>
// Automatically adds dots as thousands separator, and a dash as separator for the verificator digit.
RutFormatter.enable("#myInput");
// Disables the autoformatting script.
RutFormatter.disable("#myInput");
</script>RUT format is setted to a maximum of 12 characters (including the dots and dashes), following the next structure:
12.345.678-9
Add the following line to the <head> section of your HTML file:
<script src="scripts/rutValidator.js" charset="utf-8"></script>Then, using the validate() from the RutValidator object, check if a given RUT is valid.
<input type="text" id="myInput" placeholder="RUT">
<script>
let rutValue = $("#myInput").val();
// returns true if the passed RUT is valid, and false in other case.
let valid = RutValidator.validate(value);
</script>RutValidator should be used together with the RutFormatter tool, to ensure a correct RUT structure, prior to the validation.
