Adding Filters to Expressions

A filter can be added to an expression with a pipe character (|) and a filter.

(For the next two examples we will use the person controller from the previous chapter)

The uppercase filter format strings to upper case:

AngularJS Example

< div ng-app= "myApp" ng-controller= "personCtrl" >

< p >The name is {{ lastName | uppercase }} < /p >

< /div >

The lowercase filter format strings to lower case:

AngularJS Example

< div ng-app= "myApp" ng-controller= "personCtrl" >

< p >The name is {{ lastName | lowercase }} < /p >

< /div >

The currency Filter

The currency filter formats a number as currency:

AngularJS Example

< div ng-app= "myApp" ng-controller= "costCtrl" >

< input type= "number" ng-model= "quantity" >
< input type= "number" ng-model= "price" >

< p >Total = {{ (quantity * price) | currency }} < /p >

< /div >

Adding Filters to Directives

A filter can be added to a directive with a pipe character (|) and a filter.

The orderBy filter orders an array by an expression:

AngularJS Example

< div ng-app= "myApp" ng-controller= "namesCtrl" >

< ul >
  < li ng-repeat= "x in names | orderBy:'country'" >
    {{ x.name + ', ' + x.country }}
  < /li >
< /ul >

< div >

Filtering Input

An input filter can be added to a directive with a pipe character (|) and filter followed by a colon and a model name.

The filter filter selects a subset of an array:

AngularJS Example

< div ng-app= "myApp" ng-controller= "namesCtrl" >

< p > < input type= "text" ng-model= "test" > < /p >

< ul >
  < li ng-repeat= "x in names | filter:test | orderBy:'country'" >
    {{ (x.name | uppercase) + ', ' + x.country }}
  < /li >
< /ul >

< /div >
