Description
Highly configurable Angular datepicker and date range picker. No dependencies to other libraries.
This project was generated with Angular CLI version 7.3.8. The library is tested with Angular version 7.2.0.
Source code of the datepicker is in the projects/angular-mydatepicker/src folder.
Online demo is here
Installation
To install this component to an external project, follow the procedure:
-
npm install angular-mydatepicker --save
-
Add AngularMyDatePickerModule import to your @NgModule as follows
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
import { FormsModule, ReactiveFormsModule } from '@angular/forms';
import { AngularMyDatePickerModule } from 'angular-mydatepicker';
@NgModule({
declarations: [
AppComponent
],
imports: [
BrowserModule, ReactiveFormsModule, FormsModule, AngularMyDatePickerModule.forRoot()
],
providers: [],
bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})
export class AppModule { }
Usage
Use one of the following two options. The examples below use the bootstrap and the font-awesome, but you can use datepicker also without them.
1. ngModel binding
In this option the ngModel binding is used.
To use ngModel define the application class as follows:
import {IAngularMyDpOptions, IMyDateModel} from 'angular-mydatepicker';
export class MyTestApp {
private myOptions: IAngularMyDpOptions = {
dateRange: false,
dateFormat: 'dd.mm.yyyy'
};
private model: IMyDateModel = null;
constructor() { }
onDateChanged(event: IMyDateModel): void {
}
}
If you are using bootstrap 4 add the following snippet inside your template:
- example adds bootstrap input group and font-awesome icons
<div class="input-group">
<input class="form-control" placeholder="Select a date" angular-mydatepicker name="mydate"
[(ngModel)]="model" [options]="myOptions" #dp="angular-mydatepicker" (dateChanged)="onDateChanged($event)"/>
<div class="input-group-append">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" (click)="dp.clearDate()">
<i class="fa fa-close"></i>
</button>
</div>
<div class="input-group-append">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" (click)="dp.toggleCalendar()">
<i class="fa fa-calendar-o"></i>
</button>
</div>
</div>
There are two ways to set an initial date to the model.
- Initialize with the IMyDate object:
model: IMyDateModel = {isRange: false, singleDate: {date: { year: 2019, month: 5, day: 5 }}};
- Initialize with the javascript date object:
model: IMyDateModel = {isRange: false, singleDate: {jsDate: new Date()}};
2. Reactive forms
In this option the value accessor of reactive forms is used. Here
is an example application. It shows how to use the formControlName.
To use reactive forms define the application class as follows:
import {IAngularMyDpOptions, IMyDateModel} from 'angular-mydatepicker';
export class MyTestApp implements OnInit {
myOptions: IAngularMyDpOptions = {
dateRange: false,
dateFormat: 'dd.mm.yyyy'
};
private myForm: FormGroup;
constructor(private formBuilder: FormBuilder) { }
ngOnInit() {
let model: IMyDateModel = {isRange: false, singleDate: {jsDate: new Date()}, dateRange: null};
this.myForm = this.formBuilder.group({
myDate: [model, Validators.required]
});
}
setDate(): void {
let model: IMyDateModel = {isRange: false, singleDate: {jsDate: new Date()}, dateRange: null};
this.myForm.patchValue({myDate: model);
}
clearDate(): void {
this.myForm.patchValue({myDate: null});
}
}
Add the following snippet inside your template:
- example adds bootstrap input group and font-awesome icons
<form [formGroup]="myForm" (ngSubmit)="onSubmit()" novalidate>
<div class="input-group">
<input class="form-control" placeholder="Select a date" angular-mydatepicker name="myDate"
formControlName="myDate"[options]="myOptions" #dp="angular-mydatepicker"/>
<div class="input-group-append">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" (click)="dp.clearDate()">
<i class="fa fa-close"></i>
</button>
</div>
<div class="input-group-append">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-secondary" (click)="dp.toggleCalendar()">
<i class="fa fa-calendar-o"></i>
</button>
</div>
</div>
<div class="btnGroup">
<button class="button" type="submit" [disabled]="myForm.controls.myDate.errors">Submit</button>
<p class="error" *ngIf="myForm.controls.myDate.errors">Date is required!</p>
</div>
</form>

Functions
You can can call functions of the directive. Define local variable to input field like below:
<input angular-mydatepicker name="mydate" [(ngModel)]="model" [options]="myOptions" #dp="angular-mydatepicker"/>
The #dp="angular-mydatepicker" defines the local variable named dp. You can use it to call functions of the directive
for example (click)="dp.openCalendar()".
openCalendar function
Opens the calendar. For example:
<button type="button" (click)="dp.openCalendar()">Open</button>
closeCalendar function
Closes the calendar. For example:
<button type="button" (click)="dp.closeCalendar()">Close</button>
toggleCalendar function
Closes the calendar if it is open and opens the calendar if it is closed. For example:
<button type="button" (click)="dp.toggleCalendar()">Toggle</button>
clearDate function
Clears the date from the input box and model. For example:
<button type="button" (click)="dp.clearDate()">Clear</button>
isDateValid function
Returns true if the date in the input box is valid. Otherwise it returns false. This function also calls the inputFieldChanged callback.
<input angular-mydatepicker [(ngModel)]="model" [options]="myDatePickerOptions" #dp="angular-mydatepicker"/>
@ViewChild('dp') mdpd: AngularMyDatePickerDirective;
checkDateValidity(): void {
let valid: boolean = this.mdpd.isDateValid();
