Filters are used to modify data and can be included in expressions or using pipe directives. Below is a list of commonly used filters.
Lower case filter
Add lowercase filter, using pipe expression. Add lowercase filter here to print student names in lowercase letters.
Enter first name:<input type="text" ng-model="student.firstName"> Enter last name: <input type="text" ng-model="student.lastName"> Name in Upper Case: {{student.fullName() | lowercase}}
Currency Filter
The Canadian dollar filter uses the pipe character to return a number expression. Here we have added the filter Currency to print the charges using Currency format.
Enter fees: <input type="text" ng-model="student.fees"> fees: {{student.fees | currency}}
Filter of filters
To show only the required subjects we use subjectName as filter.
Enter subject: <input type="text" ng-model="subjectName"> Subject: <ul> <li ng-repeat="subject in student.subjects | filter: subjectName"> {{ subject.name + ', marks:' + subject.marks }} </li> </ul>
Sort Filter
To order topics by tag, we use orderBy tag.
Subject: <ul> <li ng-repeat="subject in student.subjects | orderBy:'marks'"> {{ subject.name + ', marks:' + subject.marks }} </li> </ul>
Example
The following example will demonstrate all the above filters.
