ng2-datetime-picker

AngularJS 2 DateTime Picker

Plunker Example
French 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 { }
   

Use 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;

• app.module.ts
• and app.component.ts.

Override default style

The default style is written in src/ng2-datetime-picker.component.ts. This can be overwritten by giving more details css selector.

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 own date format without using momentjs, please override Ng2DateTime.parser and Ng2DateTime.formatDate function. For example,

import { Ng2DatetimePickerModule, Ng2Datetime } from 'ng2-datetime-picker';

// Override Date object formatter
Ng2Datetime.formatDate = (date: Date) : string => { 
    ..... my own function that returns a string .... 
};

// Override Date object parser
Ng2Datetime.parseDate = (str: any): Date => { 
    .... my own function that returns a date ...
} ;

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

In addition, you can also override other static variables of Ng2Datetime class. The following is the list of variables that you can override.

Variable	Default
days	1,2,....31
daysOfWeek,	Sunday, Monday, .....
firstDayOfWeek	0 as in Sunday
months,	January, February
formatDate	returns YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
parseDate	returns date from YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM
