Here is the html for the date field :
I just found a solution to this myself. I just pass in the model name to the directive (which I found most of online). This will set the value of the model when the date changes.
<input data-ng-model="datepickertext" type="text" date-picker="datepickertext" />{{datepickertext}}
angular.module('app').directive('datePicker', function() {
var link = function(scope, element, attrs) {
var modelName = attrs['datePicker'];
$(element).datepicker(
{
onSelect: function(dateText) {
scope[modelName] = dateText;
scope.$apply();
}
});
};
return {
require: 'ngModel',
restrict: 'A',
link: link
}
});
As @lort suggests, you cannot access the datepicker model from your controller because the datepicker has its own private scope.
If you set: ng-model="parent.checkOut"
and define in the controller: $scope.parent = {checkOut:''};
you can access the datepicker using: $scope.parent.checkOut
I have the same problem and resolve like this
added in html part
<input class="someting" id="datepicker" type="text" placeholder="Dae" ng-model=""/>
and simple in Controller call
$scope.btnPost = function () {
var dateFromHTML = $('#datepicker').val();
This worked for me:
set
ng-model="date"
on your angular controller:
$scope.date = ''; $('#check-out').datepicker().on('changeDate', function (ev) { $scope.date= $('#check-out').val(); $scope.$digest(); $scope.$watch('date', function (newValue, oldValue) { $scope.date= newValue; }); });
My actual trouble was that the value of the model was not reflected till another component on the scope was changed.
I am using Angular JS 1.5.0 and Bootstrap 3 Datetimepicker from https://eonasdan.github.io/bootstrap-datetimepicker/
After some time and struggling, I finally found a solution how to make it work for me :)
JSFiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/aortega/k6ke9n2c/
HTML Code:
<div class="form-group col-sm-4" >
<label for="birthdate" class="col-sm-4">Birthday</label>
<div class="col-sm-8">
<div class="input-group date" id="birthdate" ng-model="vm.Birthdate" date-picker>
<input type="text" class="form-control netto-input" ng-model="vm.Birthdate" date-picker-input>
<span class="input-group-addon">
<span class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></span>
</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="form-group col-sm-4">
<label for="birthdateText" class="col-sm-4">Model:</label>
<div class="col-sm-8">
<input type="text" class="form-control netto-input" ng-model="vm.Birthdate">
</div>
</div>
</body>
App.js:
Simply a controller setting the viewmodels Birtdate attribute:
var app = angular.module('exampleApp',[]);
app.controller('ExampleCtrl', ['$scope', function($scope) {
var vm = this;
vm.Birthdate = "1988-04-21T18:25:43-05:00";
}]);
The first directive is initializing the datetimepicker and listening to the dp.change event.
When changed - the ngModel is updated as well.
// DatePicker -> NgModel
app.directive('datePicker', function () {
return {
require: 'ngModel',
link: function (scope, element, attr, ngModel) {
$(element).datetimepicker({
locale: 'DE',
format: 'DD.MM.YYYY',
parseInputDate: function (data) {
if (data instanceof Date) {
return moment(data);
} else {
return moment(new Date(data));
}
},
maxDate: new Date()
});
$(element).on("dp.change", function (e) {
ngModel.$viewValue = e.date;
ngModel.$commitViewValue();
});
}
};
});
The second directive is watching the ngModel, and triggering the input onChange event when changed. This will also update the datetimepicker view value.
// DatePicker Input NgModel->DatePicker
app.directive('datePickerInput', function() {
return {
require: 'ngModel',
link: function (scope, element, attr, ngModel) {
// Trigger the Input Change Event, so the Datepicker gets refreshed
scope.$watch(attr.ngModel, function (value) {
if (value) {
element.trigger("change");
}
});
}
};
});
I am using bootstrap 3 datepicker https://eonasdan.github.io/bootstrap-datetimepicker/ and angularjs, I had the same problem with ng-model, so I am getting input date value using bootstrap jquery function, below is the code in my controller, it's worked for me.
Html
<input class="form-control" name="date" id="datetimepicker" placeholder="select date">
Controller
$(function() {
//for displaying datepicker
$('#datetimepicker').datetimepicker({
viewMode: 'years',
format: 'DD/MM/YYYY',
});
//for getting input value
$("#datetimepicker").on("dp.change", function() {
$scope.selecteddate = $("#datetimepicker").val();
alert("selected date is " + $scope.selecteddate);
});
});
