Edit: This question is no longer relevant as of Angular version: 1.3.0-beta.12 you can now parse ng-minlength and ng-maxlength dynamic values. See: https://github.com/angular/angular.js/issues/5319
My problem is quite simple: I need to dynamically create input validation (ex. ng-minlength) using interpolation.
And doing that I am running into some issues specifically generating the validation attributes for ng-minlength and ng-maxlength. I assume this is due to them only taking constants?
Below you can see my code, the reason I am using a wrapper through outerForm is that I cannot dynamically generate the name attribute of input elements using interpolation, and that I have to wrap each set of repeated inputs in an ngForm directive and nest these in an outer form element.
So again, the problem lies in the attribute ng-minlength="field.ValidationAttributes['data-val-length-min']" not being properly set.
When I print the value directly using {{field.ValidationAttributes['data-val-length-min']}} the value appears correct.
Do I have to create a directive to parse my information, do I need to create my own min/max validation or am I simply running into a syntax error?
<form name="outerForm">
<div ng-repeat="field in logEntry.StringValues">
<ng-form name="innerForm">
<input type="text" name="foo" ng-model="item.foo" ng-minlength="field.ValidationAttributes['data-val-length-min']" required/>
<span ng-show="innerForm.foo.$error.required">required</span>
<span ng-show="innerForm.foo.$error.minlength">to short</span>
</ng-form>
</div>
</form>
