Auto focus in ng-repeat in angularjs
Try:
<div ng-repeat="phone in phones">
<input ng-model="phone" type="text" ng-if="$index == focusIndex" autofocus>
<input ng-model="phone" type="text" ng-if="$index != focusIndex">
</div>
<a ng-click="addPhone()">Add Phone</a>
JS:
$scope.addPhone = function() {
$scope.phones.push('Phone' + Math.random());
$scope.focusIndex = $scope.phones.length-1;
}
DEMO
Solution using custom attribute:
<div ng-repeat="phone in phones">
<input ng-model="phone" type="text" custom-autofocus="$index == focusIndex" >
</div>
<a ng-click="addPhone()">Add Phone</a>
JS:
.directive('customAutofocus', function() {
return{
restrict: 'A',
link: function(scope, element, attrs){
scope.$watch(function(){
return scope.$eval(attrs.customAutofocus);
},function (newValue){
if (newValue === true){
element[0].focus();//use focus function instead of autofocus attribute to avoid cross browser problem. And autofocus should only be used to mark an element to be focused when page loads.
}
});
}
};
})

You can use this directive: https://github.com/aikus/ng-focus-if/blob/master/ng-focus-if.js For example:
<div ng-repeat="phone in phones">
<input ng-model="phone" type="text" ng-focus-if="1==1">
</div>
<a ng-click="addPhone()">Add Phone</a>
