uib-datepicker-popup formatting problem

[char0n]

Hi,

There seems to be a problem with uib-datepicker-popup and formatting. I am currently using version 0.14.2 but I can confirm that affected was also 0.14.1. The problem is when I declare in html datepicker popup like this:

<input ...uib-datepicker-popup="dd/MM/yyyy"... /> - the date will not be in displayed

When I fallback to

<input ...datepicker-popup="dd/MM/yyyy"... /> - the date will be displayed correctly but I see the deprecation message.

It seems to be a regression in behavior for datepicker-popup. Also note that
uib-datepicker-popup="yyyy-MM-dd" works as expected. But when you change the format to anything different the dates are not displayed anymore.

Further investigation revealed the cause of the problem. The behavior is not expected only where there is additional attribute on input: required="true" respectively ng-required="true"

@char0n, please create a minimal, working plunker that shows the issue and link it here. I want to see if this is a duplicate of #4607.

Hi,

Here is the plnkr: http://plnkr.co/edit/FMHFNyzC6jlfd43uz6vF?p=preview

I forked the plnkr from @Neilski from #4607 and change version to 0.14.2.

Seems like a 100% duplicate.

@char0n, our demo is working fine - please use that as a launching point and feel free to reopen if you think there is still a bug.

Thank you for your continued help.

Using your demo at http://angular-ui.github.io/bootstrap/#/datepicker, if I change line #36 from:

To:

In other words I replace the uib-datepicker-popup value from "{{format}}" to the UK date format of "dd/MM/yyyy" the initial model value is nulled in the first of the two popup date input fields.

This only seems like a problem if:

• An initial model value is set
• The attribute ng-required or required is specified
• the date format is non-default - in my test case UK format (dd/MM/yyyy)

Hope this helps.

Yes, I can confirm. Thanks.

The only workaround I could come up with is to use old datepicker-popup instead of uib-datepicker-popup.
