Definition and Usage
The ng-maxlength directive adds a restriction to an input field,
and to the validator of the form.
The ng-maxlength is not the same as the maxlength
attribute in HTML, which will prevent users from typing more than the restricted
number of characters.
The ng-maxlength directive will not prevent users from typing
more than the restricted number off characters, but the form will be invalid if
they do so.
Syntax
<input type="text" ng-maxlength="number"></input>
Mainly supported by <input> elements of type text, but can also be used on other elements that allows user input.
Parameter Values
