How Can I Hide Extra Divs With An Ellipsis?

I have a tag input field and I need to show just as many as will fit into the fake 'input' div surrounding it, like this:
Copy
<divclass="btn"><div><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 2</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 3</span></div></div><input></div><divclass="btn"><div><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 2</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 3</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 4</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 5</span></div></div><input></div><divclass="btn"><div><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 2</span></div></div><input></div><divclass="btn"><div><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 2</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 3</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 4</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 5</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 6</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 7</span></div></div><input></div>

UPDATE

Now the input will stretch to the left in case there is no enough tags:

.btn {
  width: 310px;
  border: 1px solid;
  display: flex;
  height: 20px;
  margin-bottom: 10px;
  overflow: hidden;
}

input {
  flex: 1;
  min-width: 170px;
}

.btn > div {
  position: relative;
  height: 100%;
  overflow: hidden;
}

.btn > div:after {
  content: "...";
  position: absolute;
  right: 2px;
  bottom: 5px;
}

.tag {
  background: #fff;
  position: relative;
  z-index: 2;
}
<divclass="btn"><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 2</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 3</span></div><input></div><divclass="btn"><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 2</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 3</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 4</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 5</span></div><input></div><divclass="btn"><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 2</span></div><input></div><divclass="btn"><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 2</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 3</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 4</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 5</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 6</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 7</span></div><input></div><divclass="btn"><div><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span></div><input></div><divclass="btn"><div></div><input></div>

Solution 2:

<divclass="btn btn-secondary"><divclass="tag-box"><spanclass="tag">Tag 1</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 223131</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 31231</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 4</span><spanclass="tag">Tag 5</span></div><input></div>

.tag-box {
    display: block;
    border: 1px solid;
    max-width: 140px;
    padding: 10px;
    white-space: nowrap;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}

.tag-box .tag {
    display: inline;
    overflow: hidden;
    text-overflow: ellipsis;
}
