minlength validator binded to ng-model not input

[piernik]

I'm using custom directive to build my form.
Like <my-input ng-model="vm.value" required="true" minlength="6">

This example shows that in validation required is bind to ng-model and works great. But minlength or ng-minlength is different - I suppose it works only with input tag.

Can You bing ng-minlength with ng-model?

Should I make my own validator?

The non ng- prefixed attributes will work correctly on any element (as long as ngModelis present).

The boolean attributes (such as ngDisabled or ngRequired) will also work correctly on any element (as long as ngModelis present).

The (so called) aliased attributes (ngMin, ngMax, ngMinLength, ngMaxLength, ngPattern) on the other hand will only work on <input> or <textarea> elements.

I am not implying that it is OK (nor do I know why); I am just describing how things work atm.

So, a quick workaround (until this is resolved or decided to be left as is) is to use the non ng- prefixed versions.

Since we try to support custom controls with ng-model, these directives should probably not be restricted by element.
