角度ngModel样式

Question

Is it possible to style the value in the attribute ngModel of an input tag?

Example:

<input class="input" type="text" [(ngModel)] = "myService.text">

Let's say the value of text is '28 packages', can I put 28 in bold?

Answer 1

So if i understand correctly you want to have it bold whenever the value is 28 ?

yes its possible you can use a ng-class with a ternary expression like this

 .bold{ font-weight:600; } 

 <input type="text" ng-class="myService.text == '28 ? 'bold' : '''" class="input" ng-model="myService.text" />

This is not angular-related rather a CSS related question.

You cannot style only a part of an input in HTML/CSS so you won't be able to do it in angular.

Instead, you can use an input that is hidden behind a div. The idea is that when the user clicks the div, you actually focus the input. When the user types text, you capture the content of the input and fill the div with it, eventually adding <span class"highlight"> around the number of packages.

I prepared you a stackblitz in pure CSS/JS. You can adapt it in angular if you want.

Relevant pieces of code :

HTML :

<span id="hiddenSpan">This is the hidden div. Click it and start typing</span>

<div>
  <label for="in">The real input</label>
  <input id="in" type="text">
</div>

JS :

const input = document.getElementById('in')
const hiddenSpan = document.getElementById('hiddenSpan')

function onInputChanged() {
  let text = input.value

  const regex = new RegExp('(\\d+) packages')
  let result = regex.exec(text)

  if(result) {
    hiddenSpan.innerHTML = '<span class="highlight">'+result[1]+'</span> packages'
  } else {
    hiddenSpan.innerHTML = text
  }
}

// Capture keystrokes.
input.addEventListener('keyup', onInputChanged)

// Focus the input when the user clicks the pink div.
hiddenSpan.addEventListener('click', function() {
  input.focus()
})

CSS :

#hiddenSpan {
  background-color: pink;
}

.highlight {
  font-weight: bold;
  background-color: greenyellow;
}

Note : the downside is that the blinking caret is not visible anymore. You can take a look at this resource if you want to simulate one.

It is not possible to style certain parts of a text <input> field in bold. However, you can use a contenteditable div instead of a text <input> field. Inside the contenteditable div you can have other HTML tags like <strong> to style certain parts of the text however you like.

I created an Angular directive called contenteditableModel (check out the StackBlitz demo here ) and you can use it to perform 2-way binding on a contenteditable element like this:

<div class="input" contenteditable [(contenteditableModel)]="myService.text"></div>

The directive uses regular expressions to automatically check for numbers in the inputted text, and surrounds them in a <strong> tag to make them bold. For example, if you input "28 packages", the innerHTML of the div will be formatted like this (to make "28" bolded):

<strong>28</strong> packages

This is the code used in the directive to perform the formatting:

var inputElement = this.elementRef.nativeElement;
inputElement.innerHTML = inputElement.textContent.replace(/(\d+)/g, "<strong>$1</strong>");
this.change.emit(inputElement.textContent);

You can change the <strong> tag to something else (eg <span style="text-decoration: underline"> if you want the text to be underlined instead of bolded).

When performing the formatting, there is an issue where the user's text cursor position will be unexpectedly reset back to the beginning of the contenteditable div. To fix this, I used 2 functions ( getOriginalCaretPosition and restoreCaretPosition ) to store the user's original cursor position and then restore the position back after the text formatting is performed. These 2 functions are kind of complex and they're not entirely relevant to the OP's question so I will not go into much detail about them here. You can PM me if you want to learn more about them.
