inputmask must allow unlimited digits

Question

So below is my snippet, currently inputmask allow only this format "_." (e.g 5.55). Is there a way I could extend the format like I want this format "._____________.." (e.g 55.555555555555555555555... where after 55. the rest of the input digits must be unlimited). Any ideas, help, clues, suggestions, recommendations please?

$(document).ready(function(){
  
  $('.decimal').inputmask({ mask: "*[.**]", greedy: false, definitions: { '*': { validator: "[0-9]" } } });
  
});

<script src="https://rawgit.com/RobinHerbots/jquery.inputmask/3.x/dist/jquery.inputmask.bundle.js"></script>

<input type="text" class="decimal form-control" />

$('.decimal').inputmask({ mask: "99.9{1,}"})

{1,} = minimum 1 , infinite for the preceding char , if you need it optional {0,}

I know it is been a while, but is there a way to accomplish the same result but using something like "{1,}9.99" – Marcel Caferati Dec 08 '17 at 13:59

i think u mean `"9{1,2}.99"` so you can get : 2.95 or 23.95 – greenseed Jan 01 '18 at 18:47
that worked! Thanks, is there any way I can set it to accept both dots (.) and commas (,)? – Marcel Caferati Jan 02 '18 at 21:56
`(9{1,2}.99)|(9{1,2},99)` should do the trick , i did not test it ... i am a little far from inputmask itself ;) – greenseed Jan 04 '18 at 02:23

Inputmask("*{n}").mask($(".text_only"));

Here n stands for n number

thanks it works, I used it in alphanumeric mask like this : `$('.alphaNumeric_mask').inputmask('*{Z}',{ "placeholder": "", translation: {'Z': {pattern: /^[a-zA-Z0-9]+$/, recursive: false}}});` – AZIIZ Farhat Dec 10 '21 at 13:14

This doesn't exactly answer the question but in my case I wanted unlimited integers, so I used the expression:

9{0,}
