MatInputAutosize

mat-input-autosize is an Angular directive that allows Material input elements to fit the width of their contents.

Details

This directive uses CSS styles to resize a matInput element dynamically. It removes the hard coded width from the matInput, and adds an invisible text element to set the width.

Usage

• Import the module with: import { MatInputAutosizeModule } from 'mat-input-autosize'.
• Add MatInputAutosizeModule to your NgModule's imports array.
• Apply the directive matInputAutosize to your element that has a matInput directive on it.

Configuration

The matInputAutosize directive has three optional inputs, which all take CSS styles:

• matInputAutosizeMinWidth - Sets the minimum width the input will shrink to. (default: 120px)
• matInputAutosizeMaxWidth - Sets the maximum width the input will grow to.
• matInputAutosizeFontStyle - If the automatic width is incorrect, pass the computed font style of the input box to fix it.

Config Example

<input matInput
       matInputAutosize
       matInputAutosizeMinWidth='80px'
       matInputAutosizeMaxWidth='160px'
       matInputAutosizeFontStyle='12px Roboto, sans-serif'>
