AngularJS - Filters

Filters are used to modify the data. They can be clubbed in expression or directives using pipe (|) character. The following list shows the commonly used filters.
uppercase
converts a text to upper case text.
lowercase
converts a text to lower case text.
currency
formats text in a currency format.
filter
filter the array to a subset of it based on provided criteria.
orderby
orders the array based on provided criteria.
Add uppercase filter to an expression using pipe character. Here we've added uppercase filter to print student name in all capital letters.
Enter first name:<input type = "text" ng-model = "student.firstName">
Enter last name: <input type = "text" ng-model = "student.lastName">
Name in Upper Case: {{student.fullName() | uppercase}}

Add lowercase filter to an expression using pipe character. Here we've added lowercase filter to print student name in all lowercase letters.
Enter first name:<input type = "text" ng-model = "student.firstName">
Enter last name: <input type = "text" ng-model = "student.lastName">
Name in Lower Case: {{student.fullName() | lowercase}}

Add currency filter to an expression returning number using pipe character. Here we've added currency filter to print fees using currency format.
Enter fees: <input type = "text" ng-model = "student.fees">
fees: {{student.fees | currency}}

To display only required subjects, we use subjectName as filter.
Enter subject: <input type = "text" ng-model = "subjectName">
Subject:
<ul>
   <li ng-repeat = "subject in student.subjects | filter: subjectName">
      {{ subject.name + ', marks:' + subject.marks }}
   </li>
</ul>
To order subjects by marks, we use orderBy marks.
Subject:
<ul>
   <li ng-repeat = "subject in student.subjects | orderBy:'marks'">
      {{ subject.name + ', marks:' + subject.marks }}
   </li>
</ul>
The following example shows use of all the above mentioned filters.
