        show(e) {
          this.input = e.target;
          this.layout = e.target.dataset.layout;

          if (!this.visible)
            this.visible = true
        },

## Properties
Property      | Default  | Accepted values | Description
------------- | -------- | --------------- | -----------
`input`     | required  | `HTMLInputElement`   | The target input HTML element
`layout`    | required  | `String` or `Object`    | Layout of keys. If you are using the built-in layouts, you can set as the name of the layout. If you want to use custom layout, you need to set a layout `Object`.
`accept`    | `null`  | `Function`     | Event handler. Fired when the "Accept/Close" button pressed.
`cancel`    | `null`  | `Function`     | Event handler. Fired when the "Cancel" button pressed.
`change`    | `null`  | `Function`     | Event handler. Fired when the input value changed.
`next`      | `null`  | `Function`     | Event handler. Fired when the "Next" button pressed or the length of the value of the input reached the `maxLength` of the `input`
`options`   | `{}`    | `Object`     | Functional options.
`defaultKeySet`| `default` | `String`  | Default key set. You can choose a desired key set of your layout to be used when a keyboard is initialized.

## Options
Option      | Default  | Accepted values | Description
----------- | -------- | --------------- | -----------
`useKbEvents`  | `false`  | `boolean`    | If true, the component will generate a `keydown` event and trigger it. If it returns with `false`, it won't insert the new character.
`preventClickEvent`  | `false`  | `boolean`    | If true, the component will `preventDefault` the click event.

## Built-in layouts
* `normal` - Normal full layout. Similar as real keyboard layouts
* `numeric` - Only for numbers
* `compact` - Compact layout. Similar as mobile phone keyboard layouts
