Execute a function when user has stopped typing in AngularJS

Question

I am using below library to use autocomplete directive in my module for AngularJS!. [https://github.com/JustGoscha/allmighty-autocomplete]

I want to execute a function when user has stopped typing, is there a way I can do this?

I'd imagine you could use ng-model-options specifically the debounce property. Dunno if it will work with that directive, but you can give it a try. — George

According to the allmighty-autocomplete docs, there is an on-type attribute? Have you tried it? — DGarvanski

You can possibly set a timeout in the function you are executing on the on-type event. It will get restarted every time the user types but won't if they stop typing. — DGarvanski

You can do it using ng-change and ng-model-options (Angular 1.3+ only):

<input type="text"
       ng-model="myVar"
       ng-model-options="{debounce: 1000}"
       ng-change="functionToBeCalled()"/>

@RajDubey "This doesn't work" does not mean anything. What is the behavior? Do you have any error? What is your Angular version?

actually by using this what i do is just delay the response. but what I want is when user is typing there should be a loader and it stops typing options are shown
