How to change the date format in the datepicker of Angular ngx-bootstrap inside a form
Solution 1
[(bsValue)]
is always available for use with bsDatepicker
,
will it be input field or not
if you want to change format of only one field then
[(bsValue)]="newVar" value="{{ newVar | date:'yyyy-MM-dd' }}"
is fine
bsDatepicker
has integration with input fields and forms, this should work for you:
<input name="from" bsDatepicker [(ngModel)]="newVar">
and you can globally change format of date in input's value via config
or via [bsConfig]="{dateInputFormat: 'yyyy-MM-dd'}"
on element with bsDatepicker
note: there is currently an issue (v1.9.2) with L
format, it`s always uses en-us locale
Solution 2
If you are using Date range Picker Then you should use rangeInputFormat in [bsConfig] instead of dateInputFormat.
Solution 3
Will you be able to elaborate on how to use this config file to use a global date format?
I went through the github link you provided above but was unable to figure out how to use that in my project because it has lot of import files. I'm currently using the below inline code to change the date format.
bsDatepicker [(bsValue)]="newVar" value="{{ newVar | date:'yyyy-MM-dd' }}"
Is there a method to put this date format 'yyyy-MM-dd' in a config file globally so that I can just print a date in any field of bsDatepicker without having a need to explicitly mention the format?

Using ngx-bootstrap Datepicker in an Angular 4 application,
I know that normally you can specify the date format this way:
<input id="from" name="from" bsDatepicker [(bsValue)]="myModel" value="{{ myModel | date:'yyyy-MM-dd'}}">
but this time I'm inside a template-driven Angular form, so my input is not bound to a variable like
myModel
in the example above, but it's just bound to the form:<input id="from" name="from" bsDatepicker ngModel>
so how can I specify the date format in this case?
Edit: it looks like that a way to achieve this is by creating a new variable
newVar
inside the component and then binding it with[(bsValue)]="newVar"
:<input id="from" name="from" bsDatepicker ngModel [(bsValue)]="newVar" value="{{ newVar | date:'yyyy-MM-dd' }}">
However I wonder if there is a better solution.
