angular directive does not work with input type = "number"

Question

The code below works only when the input type is text, and it doesn't work when the type is number.

<div ng-app="myApp" ng-controller="myCtrl as model"> <input type="text" ng-model="cero" ng-decimal > </div> angular .module("myApp",[]) .controller('myCtrl', function($scope){ var model=this; }) .directive('ngDecimal', function ($parse) { var linkFunction =function(scope, element, attrs){ element.bind("keypress", function(event) { if(event.which === 13) { scope.$apply(function(){ scope.$eval(attrs.format, {'event': event}); if(scope.cero===undefined || scope.cero===''){ scope.cero="0.", event.preventDefault(); }else{ } }); } }); }; return{ restrict : 'A', scope:{ cero: '=ngModel' }, link: linkFunction } });

What I need help with is changing the type to number and still making the code work. The code is also on CodePen.

What you are trying to do with the directive. Can you elaborate your question? — Gangadhar Jannu

Updated pen : http://codepen.io/anon/pen/QKOVkP?editors=1011

Works with number, constraint being you cannot assign

scope.cero = "0." // string value

to a type="number" so replace it with the minimum number you want to assign, maybe

scope.cero = parseFloat("0.01") // parseFloat("0.") won't work

yes perfect, But the condition, so I did not eliminate what the user has written but that no longer works, you know that?

updated plunker with alert() , working both ways, also check the if condition scope.cero === null has been added to the conditions - codepen.io/anon/pen/QKOVkP?editors=1011

In the else condition add this.

scope.cero = parseFloat(scope.cero).toFixed(2);

Convert string to decimal

Here is the code: working code
