DEMO

Installation

npm install --save ngx-duration-picker

• Then in your app.module.ts add DurationPickerModule between your imports:

    ...
  ],
  providers: [...],
  bootstrap: [AppComponent]
})

Local development

<ngx-duration-picker [(value)]="myDuration"></ngx-duration-picker>

where myDuration will be the variable where the output is stored, you can also pass an initial value.

if you need to perform some operations each time the bound variable changes, you can use (valueChange):

<ngx-duration-picker [(value)]="myDuration" (valueChange)="doSomeStuff()">

<ngx-duration-picker [(value)]="myDuration" [options]="{ showWeeks: false }">
