I am building an application with Angular.js and Twitter Bootstrap.
HTML:
Your bootstrap datepicker is a 3rd-component outside of angular. When you change your date from the datepicker, angular is not aware of the changes.
You have to write a custom directive like this:
app.directive('datepicker', function() {
return {
restrict: 'A',
// Always use along with an ng-model
require: '?ngModel',
link: function(scope, element, attrs, ngModel) {
if (!ngModel) return;
ngModel.$render = function() { //This will update the view with your model in case your model is changed by another code.
element.datepicker('update', ngModel.$viewValue || '');
};
element.datepicker().on("changeDate",function(event){
scope.$apply(function() {
ngModel.$setViewValue(event.date);//This will update the model property bound to your ng-model whenever the datepicker's date changes.
});
});
}
};
});
Apply the directive to html:
<div class="input-append date" datepicker ng-model="eventdate" data-date-format="dd-mm-yyyy">
<input class="span2" size="20" type="text" required="" />
<span class="add-on">
<i class="icon-th"></i>
</span>
</div>
