How to replace deprecated uib-datepicker-popup?

Question

Since I updated my project to "angular-bootstrap": "~1.2.4", I've a warning in the console:

uib-datepicker settings via uib-datepicker-popup attributes are deprecated and will be removed in UI Bootstrap 1.3, use datepicker-options attribute instead

uib-datepicker-popup is filled by a date format or an array of date formats:

• uib-datepicker-popup="dd-MMMM-yyyy" in my case

So in angular bootstrap documentation it is still shown the deprecated way to handle this case.

Does anyone know how to migrate to the new version?

Solution 1

They have not deprecated the attribute "uib-datepicker-popup", the warning is related to all attributes listed in datepicker docs in section "Datepicker Settings". You have to provide those values by the attribute "datepicker-options". Don't know why but those in section "Popup Settings" are not throwing the warning.

In my case I had

JS

$scope.datepicker.format = 'shortDate';
$scope.datepicker.options = {
    formatYear: 'yy',
    startingDay: 1
};

HTML

<input type="text" class="form-control" 
     ng-model="ngModel"
     uib-datepicker-popup="{{ datepicker.format }}"
     datepicker-options="datepicker.options"

     datepicker-append-to-body="true" 
     is-open="datepicker.opened"               
     show-button-bar="false"
     close-text="Close"

     min-date="minDate"
     max-date="maxDate"
     custom-class="getCustomClass"
     show-weeks="false"
     />

and it became

JS

$scope.datepicker.format = 'shortDate';
$scope.datepicker.options = {
    formatYear: 'yy',
    startingDay: 1,
    minDate: minDate,
    maxDate: maxDate,
    showWeeks: false,
    customClass: getCustomClass
};

HTML

<input type="text" class="form-control" 
     ng-model="ngModel"
     uib-datepicker-popup="{{ datepicker.format }}"
     datepicker-options="datepicker.options"

     datepicker-append-to-body="true" 
     is-open="datepicker.opened"               
     show-button-bar="false"
     close-text="Close" 
     />
