angular-input-modified 1.1.5

This AngularJS module adds additional properties and methods to the ngModel and ngForm controllers to provide end-user with facilities to detect and indicate form input modifications.

This extra functionality allows you to provide better usability for forms. For example, you can add decorations to the form elements that are actually changed. That way, user will see what values has changed since last edit.

Also, you can reset form to it's initial state (cancel all user edits) with just a single call to form.reset() or lock new values (preserve new state) just by calling form.$setPristine(). If you want, you can do this for individual input elements the same way.

Please see the Demo.

Decorations and animation

This module adds ng-modified and ng-not-modified CSS classes to the input fields to indicate their state. Use them in your CSS to decorate input fields. You can combine multiple classes in the same selector. For example this is the useful CSS selector to decorate as valid only modified elements: input.ng-valid.ng-modified. This way target user will see what elements were actually changed.

It also supports animations if ngAnimate module is present.

Example

/** Decorating only modified inputs as valid */
input.ng-valid.ng-modified {
    border-color: green;
}
