Where is this module-ui/view/base/web/templates/form/element/input.html used?

I am basically going through the RequireJS section of the official Magento 2 documentation and there is a section which mentions about changing the maxlength of an input tag with class="admin__control-text" to 512, which is supposed to be 256 by default.

I am facing difficulty locating where this is being used in Magento 2. Even with the template hints turned on, I am not able to find which form input in the adminhtml or frontend areas is this file is getting applied. I tried checking the adminhtml area and could see the class "admin__control-text" in some places however they came from some other template and not this one which is inside vendor/magento/module_ui.

So even after creating the file I am not able to check and confirm if the additions that I made in my app/code/<Vendor_name>/<module_name>/view/base/web/template/form/element to the maxlength are being applied as I don't know where to check and if this file is getting applied.

Can someone please help with this? I have been stuck on this for quite some time.

Solution

Did you create the other files needed to you module in order to work and add correctly to Magento2, like requirejs-config.js, registration.php and module.xml?

var config = {
    map: {
        '*': {
            'ui/template/form/element/input': '<Vendor_name>_<module_name>/template/form/element/input'
        }
    }
};

<?php

\Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::register(
    \Magento\Framework\Component\ComponentRegistrar::MODULE,
    '<Vendor_name>_<module_name>',
    __DIR__
);

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<config xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
        xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="urn:magento:framework:Module/etc/module.xsd">
    <module name="<Vendor_name>_<module_name>" setup_version="1.0.0">
        <sequence>
            <module name="Magento_Ui" />
            <module name="Magento_Backend" />
        </sequence>
    </module>
</config>
