Min and max value of input in angular4 application


I have an angular4 application with a form. In this one I have an input to enter a percentage. So, I want to block the input with value between 0 and 100. I tried to add min="0" and max="100" but I can yet enter an number higher than 100 or smaller than 0.

template

<md-input-container>
  <input type="number" 
    maxlength="3" 
    min="0" 
    max="100" 
    required 
    mdInput 
    placeholder="Charge" 
    [(ngModel)]="rateInput" 
    name="rateInput">
  <md-error>Required field</md-error>
</md-input-container>

Do you know how I can do this ?


Solution

  • I succeeded by using a form control. This is my html code :

    <md-input-container>
        <input type="number" min="0" max="100" required mdInput placeholder="Charge" [(ngModel)]="rateInput" name="rateInput" [formControl]="rateControl">
        <md-error>Please enter a value between 0 and 100</md-error>
    </md-input-container>
    

    And in my Typescript code, I have :

    this.rateControl = new FormControl("", [Validators.max(100), Validators.min(0)])
    

    So, if we enter a value higher than 100 or smaller than 0, the material design input become red and the field is not validate. So after, if the value is not good, I don't save when I click on the save button.
