ng2-datetime-picker

AngularJS 2 DateTime Picker

Plunker Example

How Does It Work

1. Get a Date or string from input field.
2. If input value is string, convert it to Date object and save it internally.
3. When the input field is clicked, show date time picker with date value.
4. When date time is selected, set toString function of selected date for formatting.
5. Set input field with the selected value.

Install

1. install ng2-datetime-picker

    $ npm install ng2-datetime-picker --save
   

2. add map and packages to your systemjs.config.js

    map[‘ng2-datetime-picker'] = 'node_modules/ng2-datetime-picker/dist';
    packages[‘ng2-datetime-picker'] = { main: 'ng2-datetime-picker.umd.js', defaultExtension: 'js’ }
   

3. import Ng2DatetimePickerModule to your AppModule

    import { NgModule } from '@angular/core';
    import { FormsModule } from "@angular/forms";
    import { BrowserModule  } from '@angular/platform-browser';
    import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
    import { Ng2DatetimePickerModule } from 'ng2-datetime-picker';
    
    @NgModule({
      imports: [BrowserModule, FormsModule, Ng2DatetimePickerModule],
      declarations: [AppComponent],
      bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
    })
    export class AppModule { }
   

Usage it in your code

   <input
      [(ngModel)]="myDate"
      ng2-datetime-picker 
      date-only="true" />

   <form [formGroup]="myForm">
     <input 
       required
       [(ngModel)]='myVar' 
       formControlName="date" 
       ng2-datetime-picker
        date-only="true"/>
   </form>
   
   <input 
      [(ngModel)]="date2" ng2-datetime-picker
      date-format="DD-MM-YYYY hh:mm"
      year="2014"
      month="12"
      day="31"
      hour="23"
      minute='59'
      close-on-select="false"  />

For full example, please check test directory to see the example of;

• systemjs.config.js
• app.module.ts
• and app.component.ts.

Override default style

The default style is written in src/datetime-picker.component.ts. This can be overwritten by giving more details css seletor.

e.g.,

#my-div .ng2-datetime-picker {
  background-color: blue;
}

Override built-in date parser and date formatter

The default date parser and formatter can only handle 'YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM' format if you are not using momentjs. If you use momentjs, you can use momentjs dateformat by adding the following in your html.

<script src="moment-with-locales.min.js"></script>

If you want to have your dateformat without using momentjs, please override DateTime.parser and DateTime.formatDate function. For example,

import { Ng2DatetimePickerModule, DateTime } from 'ng2-datetime-picker';

// Override Date object formatter
DateTime.formatDate = (date: Date) : string => { ..... my own function .... };

// Override Date object parser
DateTime.parse = (str: any): Date => { .... my own function ... } ;

@NgModule({
  imports: [BrowserModule, FormsModule, Ng2DatetimePickerModule],
  declarations: [AppComponent],
  bootstrap: [ AppComponent ]
})
export class AppModule { }
