🚀 Quick Example

Model Example

public class UserInfo

    [BlurXField(BlurStyle.Email)]
    public string Email { get; set; }

    [BlurXField(BlurStyle.Regex, regexPattern: @"\d")]
    public string UserName { get; set; }

    [BlurXField(BlurStyle.Prefix)]
    public string WorkPhone { get; set; }

    [BlurXField(BlurStyle.Prefix, visibleCharCount: 1)]
    public string Phone { get; set; }
        
    [BlurXField(BlurStyle.Suffix, visibleCharCount: 1)]
    public string Phone2 { get; set; }

    [BlurXField(BlurStyle.Default)]
    public string Phone3 { get; set; }

    [BlurXField(BlurStyle.Full)]
    public string Password { get; set; }

    [BlurXField(BlurStyle.Middle, maskChar: '#', maskLength: 6)]
    public string CardNumber { get; set; }
}

Masking Usage

var user = new UserInfo
{
    Email = "john.doe@example.com",
    UserName = "john007.doe",
    Phone = "9876543210",
    WorkPhone = "9876543210",
    Phone2 = "9876543210",
    Phone3 = "9876543210",
    Password = "MyStrongPassword123",
    CardNumber = "4111 1111 1111 1111",
};

var masked = BlurX.Mask(user);

Output

    {
      "Email": "********@example.com",
      "UserName": "john***.doe",
      "WorkPhone": "******3210",
      "Phone": "9******210",
      "Phone2": "987******0",
      "Phone3": "98******10",
      "Password": "*******************",
      "CardNumber": "4111 1######11 1111"
