Question

I want to do like this : 3.40 and not more than 3 characters and one dot:

<md-input-container class="md-block">
                    <label>Marks/CGPA</label>
                    <input type="text" name="education.cgpa" ng-model="education.cgpa"
                           ng-pattern="/^[0-9]{0,4}$/">
                    <div class="input-validation" ng-show="educationSaveForValidate['education.cgpa'].$error.pattern">
                        Insert valid CGPA
                    </div>
                </md-input-container>

How can I allow only 3 digits and one dot in Regular Expression?

Answer 1

You may use a single regex like

ng-pattern="/^(?!.{5})\d*\.?\d+$/"

or - to allow an empty string:

ng-pattern="/^(?!.{5})\d*\.?\d*$/"

You may also move the length check out of the regex:

ng-pattern="/^\d*\.\d*$/" ng-maxlength="4"

Details

• ^ - start of string
• (?!.{5}) - a negative lookahead that fails the match if there are any 5 chars in the input string
• \d* - 0+ digits
• \.? - an optional .
• \d* - zero or more digits (if \d+ is used, then 1 or more digits)
• $ - end of string.

To disallow any leading/trailing spaces, add ng-trim="false".
