MVC Mask Attribute for Inputs

I created a mask input in previous posts where I declared Jquery as a constant and added it to Scripts collection. Alternate approach can be generate an Id for each mask input and use scripts in EditorTemplate.

MaskAttribute

52. public void OnMetadataCreated(ModelMetadata metadata)
53.         {
54.             metadata.TemplateHint = "_maskInput";
55.             metadata.AdditionalValues["id"] = Guid.NewGuid();
56.             metadata.AdditionalValues["mask"] = Mask;
57.         }

Register mask for input in document ready event.

Views\Shared\EditorTemplates\_maskInput.cshtml

1. @using MvcLists.Common.CustomAttributes
2. @model System.String
3. @{
4.     var additionalValues = ViewData.ModelMetadata.AdditionalValues;
5.     var mask = additionalValues.SingleOrDefault(x=>x.Key=="mask").Value;
6.     var id = additionalValues.SingleOrDefault(x => x.Key == "id").Value;
7. }
8. @{ var maskedInput = ViewData.GetModelAttribute<MaskAttribute>();
9.    if (maskedInput != null)
10.    {
11.         <div class="editor-label">
12.             @Html.LabelForModel()
13.         </div>
14.         <div class="editor-field">
15.             @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m, new { id = @id })
16.         </div>
17.    }
18. }
19. <script type="text/javascript">
20.     $(document).ready(function () {
21.         $("#@id").mask('@mask');
22.     });
23. </script>
