Register Syncfusion® Blazor Service

Open ~/_Imports.razor file and import the Syncfusion.Blazor and Syncfusion.Blazor.Inputs namespace.

@using Syncfusion.Blazor
@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Inputs

Now, register the Syncfusion® Blazor Service in the ~/Program.cs file of your Blazor WebAssembly App.

using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.Web;
using Microsoft.AspNetCore.Components.WebAssembly.Hosting;
using Syncfusion.Blazor;

var builder = WebAssemblyHostBuilder.CreateDefault(args);
builder.RootComponents.Add<App>("#app");
builder.RootComponents.Add<HeadOutlet>("head::after");

builder.Services.AddScoped(sp => new HttpClient { BaseAddress = new Uri(builder.HostEnvironment.BaseAddress) });

builder.Services.AddSyncfusionBlazor();
await builder.Build().RunAsync();
....

Add stylesheet and script resources

The theme stylesheet and script can be accessed from NuGet through Static Web Assets. Include the stylesheet and script references in the <head> section of the ~/index.html file.

<head>
    ....
    <link href="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Themes/bootstrap5.css" rel="stylesheet" />
    <script src="_content/Syncfusion.Blazor.Core/scripts/syncfusion-blazor.min.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>

NOTE

Check out the Blazor Themes topic to discover various methods (Static Web Assets, CDN, and CRG) for referencing themes in your Blazor application. Also, check out the Adding Script Reference topic to learn different approaches for adding script references in your Blazor application.

Add Blazor NumericTextBox component

Add the Syncfusion® Blazor NumericTextBox component in the ~/Pages/Index.razor file.

<SfNumericTextBox TValue="int?" Value=10></SfNumericTextBox>
  • Press Ctrl+F5 (Windows) or ⌘+F5 (macOS) to launch the application. This will render the Syncfusion® Blazor NumericTextBox component in your default web browser.

Range validation

You can set the minimum and maximum range of values in the NumericTextBox using the Min and Max properties, so the numeric value should be in the min and max range.

<SfNumericTextBox TValue="int?" Value=5 Max=100 Min=1 Step=5></SfNumericTextBox>

Formatting the value

Users can set the format of the NumericTextBox component using the Format property. The value will be displayed in the specified format, when the component is in focused out state.

<SfNumericTextBox TValue="int?" Value=10 Format="c2"></SfNumericTextBox>

Precision of numbers

You can restrict the number of decimals to be entered in the NumericTextBox by using the Decimals and ValidateDecimalOnType properties. So, you cannot enter the number whose precision is greater than the mentioned decimals.

If ValidateDecimalOnType is false, number of decimals will not be restricted. Else, number of decimals will be restricted while typing in the NumericTextBox.

<SfNumericTextBox TValue="double?" Value=10 ValidateDecimalOnType=true Decimals=3 Format="n3" Placeholder="ValidateDecimalOnType enabled" FloatLabelType="@FloatLabelType.Auto"></SfNumericTextBox>

<SfNumericTextBox TValue="double?" Value=10 Decimals=3 Format="n3" Placeholder="ValidateDecimalOnType disabled" FloatLabelType="@FloatLabelType.Auto"></SfNumericTextBox>
