A simple implementation of datepicker using AngularJs Boostrap.
Template:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html ng-app="app">
<head>
<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.3.8/angular.js"></script>
<script src="http://angular-ui.github.io/bootstrap/ui-bootstrap-tpls-0.12.0.js"></script>
<script src="datepicker.js"></script>
<link href="http://netdna.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.1/css/bootstrap.min.css" rel="stylesheet">
</head>
<body ng-controller="DatepickerDemoCtrl" style="padding-top: 50px">
<div class="container">
<div class="row">
<div class="col-md-3">
<p class="input-group">
<input type="text" class="form-control" datepicker-popup="dd-MMMM-yyyy" ng-model="dt" is-open="opened" min-date="minDate" max-date="maxDate" datepicker-options="dateOptions" ng-required="true" show-button-bar="false"/>
<span class="input-group-btn">
<button type="button" class="btn btn-default" ng-click="open($event)"><i class="glyphicon glyphicon-calendar"></i></button>
</span>
</p>
</div>
</div>
</div>
</body>
</html>
Script:
var app = angular.module('app', ['ui.bootstrap']);
app.controller('DatepickerDemoCtrl', function ($scope) {
$scope.dt = new Date();
$scope.minDate = new Date();
$scope.maxDate = new Date();
$scope.maxDate.setMonth($scope.maxDate.getMonth() + 1);
$scope.dateOptions = {
startingDay: 1,
showWeeks: false
};
$scope.opened = false;
$scope.open = function($event) {
$event.preventDefault();
$event.stopPropagation();
$scope.opened = !$scope.opened;
};
});
app.directive('datepickerPopup', function (){
return {
restrict: 'EAC',
require: 'ngModel',
link: function(scope, element, attr, controller) {
//remove the default formatter from the input directive to prevent conflict
controller.$formatters.shift();
}
}
});
Notes:
- Used a custom directive ‘datepickerPopup’ taken from here so that default date would have correct display formatting
- Unsure why it’s not working when local files are used, so instead CDN files are referenced. Will find out why?🙂
