Autocomplete Off is not working about ngx-otp-input

[pkovzz]

Hey @Shreyabhanot!
Thanks for opening the issue. Could you reproduce the same behavior in other browsers too? Chrome tends to ignore the autocomplete="off" attribute.

Hey @pkovzz !
It was not working because ngx-otp-input is only a wrapper for input elements. Resolved by manipulating the inside input elements.

Hello @Shreyabhanot and @pkovzz

I am experiencing the same problem, I noticed that if I include in the settings isPasswordInput: true the auto complete stops occurring as expected. And as described in this link:

https://pt.stackoverflow.com/questions/61510/como-remover-auto-complete-de-input-do-google-chrome

In current versions of Google Chrome it is possible to solve this if autocomplete="off" is in the form tag.

Suggestion:

Modify the file receiving the boolean autocomplete definition received from the NgxOtpInputConfig interface.
https://github.com/pkovzz/ngx-otp-input/blob/master/projects/ngx-otp-input/src/lib/component/ngx-otp-input.component.html

Modify the file by making the NgxOtpInputConfig interface have the autocomplete configuration property.
https://github.com/pkovzz/ngx-otp-input/blob/master/projects/ngx-otp-input/src/lib/component/ngx-otp-input.model.ts

Does that make sense to you? Is this a good approach to solving the problem?

Hello @wescleysrn!

Thank you very much for your effort to fix this issue. To be honest, I'm not really satisfied with the current state of the library, so I've decided to rewrite it in the near future, including this and other fixes as well. Since I can't tell you exactly when this will happen, if you have a strict deadline, I suggest checking other OTP libraries too.
