This is my Truncate filter. It will truncate the text passed to it, defaulting to 10 characters.
You need to include the igTruncate.js file before your app, but after angular.
Just put this filter on anything that returns a string;
For example…
// Load the filter
<script src="jquery.js"></script>
<script src="angular.js"></script>
<script src="igTruncate.js"></script>
<script src="ngApp.js"></script>
// In your controller
// Include the module in your app
var ngMyApp = angular.module('myApp', ['igTruncate']);
// Model that will ultimately contain your string
$scope.string;
// In your markup
<span>{{string|truncate}}</span>
// You can set the number of characters to truncate to {{string|truncate:15}}
