Angular Trim Directive
This directive helps to trim whitespaces of an input text value.
It lies on a simple fact that Angular listens to input
event to bring the view-to-model binding into being.
The directive works with Angular 5 and 6. To use it in Angular 4, you may import the .ts file directly (see Usage). For Angular 2, you may try it in Angular 4's way, but it's not guaranteed to work.
Usage
1.Install ngx-trim-directive
.
npm i -S ngx-trim-directive
2.Import NgxTrimDirectiveModule
to your Angular module.
Angular 4
import { NgxTrimDirectiveModule } from 'ngx-trim-directive/src';
@NgModule({
imports: [
...
NgxTrimDirectiveModule,
...
],
...
Angular 5+
import { NgxTrimDirectiveModule } from 'ngx-trim-directive';
@NgModule({
imports: [
...
NgxTrimDirectiveModule,
...
],
...
3.Add the "trim" attribute to an input element.
<input type="text" ... trim>
4.If you want to trim the value ONLY on blur event, you should set the value of trim attribute to blur
. This is very handy if a whitespace is allowed inside the input text value.
<input type="text" ... trim="blur">
Good luck.
