Is there any way to hide keyboard when focusing an ion-input?

Question

I wanted to have an ion-input that will be focused and the keyboard should not appear. Is there any way or is it possible? Thank you!

Answer 1

yes, install this plugin -> https://ionicframework.com/docs/native/keyboard/

html

<ion-input type="text" [(ngModel)]="message"  (ionFocus)="keyboard_show()"  #input ></ion-input>

ts

    import {
      Keyboard
    } from '@ionic-native/keyboard';

    constructor(private keyboard: Keyboard, private ) {
    }
      keyboard_show(){
       this.keyboard.close();
      }
