# Input
Although we are calling them Inputs they actually correspond to Material Design [Text fields](https://material.google.com/components/text-fields.html). It allows a user to input text and it's the base for other components like the autocomplete.
<!-- example -->
```jsx
import Input from 'react-toolbox/lib/input';
class InputTest extends React.Component {
state = { name: '', phone: '', email: '', hint: '' };
handleChange = (value, ev) => {
this.setState({ [ev.target.name]: value });
};
render () {
return (
<section>
<Input type='text' label='Name' name='name' value={this.state.name} onChange={this.handleChange} maxLength={16 } />
<Input type='text' label='Disabled field' disabled />
<Input type='email' label='Email address' name='email' icon='email' value={this.state.email} onChange={this.handleChange} />
<Input type='tel' label='Phone' name='phone' icon='phone' value={this.state.phone} onChange={this.handleChange} />
<Input type='text' label='Required Field' name='hint' hint='With Hint' required value={this.state.hint} onChange={this.handleChange} icon={<span>J</span>} />
</section>
);
}
}
```
If you want to provide a theme via context, the component key is `RTInput`.

## Methods
The `Input` component has some imperative methods that are used as a bypass to the native rendered DOM element. To call this methods you will need to retrieve the instance of the component. Check the [Install](http://react-toolbox.io/#/install) section for details on how to do this. The methods included for the `Input` are:
- `blur` used to blur the `input` element.
- `focus` used to focus the `input` element.
