I'm stuck at the same error than @vishaltechreceptives and cannot find a way out of it.

Having the same problem.
It's coming from this line in inputmask.ts:
jQuery(this.el.nativeElement.children[0])['inputmask'](cfg);

Anybody know what that associative array (weird, to begin with) is trying to do?

@tbertran I solved this problem by downloading the following plugin and adding it to my mode_modules folder.

https://github.com/RobinHerbots/jquery.inputmask

Then, I just had to set this path on my index.html inserting these two lines:
`<script src="node_modules/primeui/primeui-ng-all.min.js"></script>

<script src="node_modules/jquery.inputmask-3.x/dist/jquery.inputmask.bundle.js"></script>`

Good to remember that primeui-ng-all.min.js must be referenced BEFORE jquery.inputmask.bundle.js because it contains all jQuery definitions that inputmask needs.

The documentation says this supports "email" input masking... but there is no example and I can't figure it out.

How do you write a mask with variable characters?

any way I can mask for email like this _______@_______.___ it seem impossible because the mask is fixed the character size 🤔🤔
