Options

The tag works separately with the options based on the value

theme

it comes with two themes which can take the value of `default` or `material`. if used optionally it takes
 the default of `default`

type

for now the type is just for `input`

data

if set , is where what `angular-tag` use in our data set to check if the entered item match any of the 
fields/items in it or in filtering **typehead**

selected

return the selected item(s)/tags here, which can be used for other processing

sameInput

to allow same input , that is a selected item can appear more than once in our tagging system, 
takes either `true` or `false`

allowOutsideDataSet

if the allowed input should be outside the data set specified in `data` , takes either `true` or `false`

typehead

used in turning type head to assist users when typing or not , takes either `true` or `false`, if animation is wanted 
simply inject ngAnimate to your app module to see the type head in action

displayField

field to display to the user in the data set to the tag view , i.e which field to show to the user 
when typing or when adding tag, default if not specified uses the `text` object field parameter like in {text:'text'}

placeholder

assist users so they can use their place holders , if not placed it would use the default placeholder which is 
`Enter Text with , separated`

delimeter

delimiter to separate the text entered, checks if the user hit on the delimiter activate the tag, default it uses `,` 
and always uses `Enter Key` along side

max

max is used in limiting users of the number of tag that can be created , default it allows for infinity entry of tag when not specified

required

this is used when form validation is required to valid if a tag is selected and the input is empty too , then it makes the form $dirty. check the 3rd tag-me in the _example.html_ above

name

this is used along side **required** which is used in targetting a particular tag-me directive in the page in the case of many tag-me , default value is **tagMe**

Events

The directive handles 4 types of events action which is listed below and a second parameter item. Each of the event uses a directive attribute to handle each of them like this on-tag-removed='eventHandle(event)' where event.action is the name of the event listed below

        onTagAdded //this is send along the added item object
        onTagRemoved //this also send along the item object removed 
        onTagActive //this also send along the selected active selected tag
        onTagMaximum //this event is also triggered with the input typed returned too

and event.item is the tag object or accompany parameter. Used in the example html above

Demo

You can see the directive in action in the demo page.

Setting up your environment

Here's what you need to do before start working on the code:

Install Node.js (0.10.22 or higher)

Install gulp v4 globally

 npm install -g 'gulpjs/gulp.git#4.0' karma-cli

Clone your repository

 git clone https://github.com/<your_github_username>/angular-tag

Go to the angular-tag directory
```
 cd angular-tag
```

Add the main angular-tag repo as an upstream remote

 git remote add upstream https://github.com/theo4u/angular-tag

Install the development dependencies
```
 npm install
 bower install 
```

Building from the source code

You can build angular-tag with a single command:

gulp build

That performs all tasks needed to produce the final JavaScript and CSS files. After the build completes, a folder named dist will be generated containing the following files:

angular-tag.js
angular-tag.css
angular-tag.min.js
angular-tag.min.css

Running It on local server

You can run it using the task below, which would run and watch any changes to our .js and .css and anything inside the template folder

gulp serve

The task above would run and listen for any js and run the gulp build-js or gulp build-css or gulp template-build for css and template respectively
