I have the below code in my blockly.js file 

Blockly.Blocks['account_number'] = {
  // Other type.
  init: function() {
    this.jsonInit({
      "message0": "account_number %1",
      "args0": [{"type": "field_input", "name": "TYPE", "text": ""}],
      "output": "Type",
      "colour": 320,
      "tooltip": "Custom type to allow.",
      "helpUrl": "https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s2_xaEvcVI0#t=702"
    });
  }
};

I am using this in my index.html as follows

<category name="sender" colour="%{BKY_MATH_HUE}">
    <block type="account_number" name="accnum"></block>
</category>

How can I get the user entered number in the account number block in this js file?

The short answer:

Blockly.JavaScript['account_number'] = function(block) {
    var code = block.getFieldValue('TYPE');
    return code;
}

(You appear to have named your field "TYPE", by the way - are you entirely sure that's what you want to name it?)

The medium answer: include the above, and generate the JavaScript for your workspace by getting your workspace and using:

var generatedCode = Blockly.JavaScript.workspaceToCode(workspace);

in wherever you are trying to generate your JavaScript.

The long answer is that if that isn't enough to get you started, I'll need to see a bit more about how you're trying to generate your code and what you're going to do with it.
