 # utils-positive-integer-input

-This library was generated with [Nx](https://nx.dev).
+An Angular directive that ensures only positive integers can be entered into number input fields.

-## Running unit tests
+## Features
+
+- ✅ Blocks invalid characters during keyboard input (`.`, `,`, `-`, `+`, `e`, `E`)
+- ✅ Sanitizes pasted content to extract only positive integers
+- ✅ Handles all input methods (typing, paste, drag & drop)
+- ✅ Removes leading zeros automatically
+- ✅ Works seamlessly with Angular forms (`ngModel`, `formControl`)
+- ✅ Standalone directive - easy to import
+
+## Installation
+
+The directive is available through the `@isa/utils/positive-integer-input` package.
+
+## Usage
+
+### Basic Usage
+
+Simply add the `positiveIntegerInput` directive to any `<input type="number">` element:
+
+```html
+<input type="number" positiveIntegerInput />
+```
+
+### With Angular Forms
+
+```html
+<!-- With ngModel -->
+<input 
+  type="number" 
+  positiveIntegerInput 
+  [(ngModel)]="points"
+  placeholder="Enter points"
+/>
+
+<!-- With Reactive Forms -->
+<input 
+  type="number" 
+  positiveIntegerInput 
+  [formControl]="pointsControl"
+  placeholder="Enter points"
+/>
+```
+
+### Complete Example
+
+```typescript
+import { Component, signal } from '@angular/core';
+import { FormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
+import { PositiveIntegerInputDirective } from '@isa/utils/positive-integer-input';
+
+@Component({
+  selector: 'app-booking',
+  standalone: true,
+  imports: [FormsModule, PositiveIntegerInputDirective],
+  template: `
+    <input
+      type="number"
+      positiveIntegerInput
+      [(ngModel)]="points"
+      placeholder="Punkte"
+      min="1"
+      step="1"
+    />
+    <p>Entered points: {{ points() ?? 'None' }}</p>
+  `,
+})
+export class BookingComponent {
+  points = signal<number | undefined>(undefined);
+}
+```
+
+## How It Works
+
+The directive implements three protection layers:
+
+### 1. Keyboard Input Protection (`keydown`)
+Blocks invalid keys before they can be entered:
+- **Blocked:** `.`, `,`, `-`, `+`, `e`, `E`
+- **Allowed:** `0-9`, navigation keys (arrow keys, backspace, delete, tab)
+
+### 2. Paste Protection (`paste`)
+Intercepts paste operations and sanitizes the content:
+- Extracts only digits from pasted text
+- Removes leading zeros
+- Updates the input value with the sanitized result
+
+### 3. General Input Protection (`input`)
+Catches all other input methods (drag & drop, autofill, programmatic changes):
+- Validates and sanitizes any value changes
+- Ensures consistency across all input methods
+
+## Examples
+
+### ✅ What Works
+
+| User Action | Input Attempt | Result in Field | Explanation |
+|-------------|---------------|-----------------|-------------|
+| **Typing** | `123` | `123` | Valid positive integer |
+| **Typing** | `1-2-3` | `123` | Minus signs blocked during typing |
+| **Typing** | `1.5` | `15` | Decimal point blocked, only digits entered |
+| **Paste** | `-100` | `100` | Negative sign removed |
+| **Paste** | `1.000` | `1000` | Decimal point removed |
+| **Paste** | `1,58` | `158` | Comma removed |
+| **Paste** | `+42` | `42` | Plus sign removed |
+| **Paste** | `3.14e2` | `314` | Scientific notation sanitized |
+| **Paste** | `00123` | `123` | Leading zeros removed |
+| **Paste** | `abc123xyz` | `123` | Non-digit characters removed |
+| **Typing** | `007` | `7` | Leading zeros removed |
+
+### ❌ What Doesn't Work (By Design)
+
+| User Action | Input Attempt | Result | Explanation |
+|-------------|---------------|--------|-------------|
+| **Typing/Paste** | `-50` | `50` | Negative numbers converted to positive |
+| **Typing/Paste** | `12.34` | `1234` | Decimals removed (not rounded) |
+| **Typing/Paste** | `0` | `` (empty) | Single zero removed (use `min="0"` if needed) |
+| **Paste** | `abc` | `` (empty) | No digits to extract |
+| **Paste** | `---` | `` (empty) | No digits to extract |
+
+## Important Notes
+
+### Zero Handling
+The directive removes leading zeros, which means a single `0` input will result in an empty field. If you need to allow zero as a valid value, consider:
+
+```html
+<!-- Add min="0" and handle empty state in your component -->
+<input 
+  type="number" 
+  positiveIntegerInput 
+  [(ngModel)]="points"
+  min="0"
+/>
+```
+
+### Decimal Numbers
+This directive is **not suitable** for decimal number inputs. Pasted decimals like `1.58` become `158`, not `1` or `2`. For decimal inputs, use a different validation approach.
+
+### Form Validation
+The directive sanitizes input but doesn't perform validation. Combine it with Angular form validators:
+
+```typescript
+import { Validators } from '@angular/forms';
+
+// In your component
+pointsControl = new FormControl(null, [
+  Validators.required,
+  Validators.min(1),
+  Validators.max(1000)
+]);
+```
+
+## Browser Compatibility
+
+The directive uses standard browser APIs and works in all modern browsers:
+- Chrome/Edge (Chromium-based)
+- Firefox
+- Safari
+- Mobile browsers (iOS Safari, Chrome Mobile)
+
+## Running Unit Tests

 Run `nx test utils-positive-integer-input` to execute the unit tests.

- * Directive that prevents non-numeric input in number input fields.
- * Blocks: decimal points (. and ,), negative signs (-), plus signs (+), and exponential notation (e, E)
+ * Directive that ensures only positive integers can be entered into number input fields.
 *
- * Usage:
+ * This directive provides three layers of protection:
+ * 1. Keyboard input blocking - prevents invalid characters from being typed
+ * 2. Paste sanitization - cleans pasted content to extract only positive integers
+ * 3. General input validation - catches any other input methods (drag & drop, autofill, etc.)
+ *
+ * **Blocked characters:** `.`, `,`, `-`, `+`, `e`, `E`, and all other non-digit characters
+ *
+ * **Examples:**
+ * - Typing `1-2-3` → only `123` appears (minus signs blocked)
+ * - Pasting `-100` → becomes `100` (negative sign removed)
+ * - Pasting `1.000` → becomes `1000` (decimal point removed)
+ * - Pasting `1,58` → becomes `158` (comma removed)
+ * - Typing `007` → becomes `7` (leading zeros removed)
+ *
+ * **Important Notes:**
+ * - This directive removes ALL non-digit characters, so `1.58` becomes `158`, not `1` or `2`
+ * - Leading zeros are automatically removed
+ * - A single `0` input results in an empty field
+ * - Works seamlessly with Angular forms (ngModel, formControl)
+ *
+ * @example
 * ```html

+ * <!-- With ngModel -->
