I have a problem with customAttribute. I want to use it to plug in jquery-ui datepicker. Idea taken from here: http://www.danyow.net/jquery-ui-datepicker-with-aurelia/
However it looks like it is not working at all. I have tried to debug the application and it looks like [email protected] is not fired at all. However the file itself is being requested from the server. The worst thing is that I had it working yesterday evening, but today morning ...
I have created simple example in my fork of skeleton application: https://github.com/Exsilium122/skeleton-navigation so it is ready to be cloned and run for troubleshoot.
The most important two files:
welcome.html
<template>
<require from="./resources/datepicker"></require>
<input id="myDate" datepicker="datepicker" value.bind="timestamp | dateFormat"/>
</template>
datepicker.js
import {inject, customAttribute} from 'aurelia-framework';
import 'jquery-ui';
import 'jquery-ui/themes/cupertino/jquery-ui.css!';
@customAttribute('datepicker')
@inject(Element)
export class Datepicker {
constructor(element) {
this.element = element;
}
attached = () => {
console.log("attached Datepicker");
$(this.element).datepicker({
dateFormat: 'mm/dd/yy'
}).on('change', e => fireEvent(e.target, 'input'));
}
detached = () => {
console.log("detached Datepicker");
$(this.element).datepicker('destroy').off('change');
}
}
function createEvent(name) {
var event = document.createEvent('Event');
event.initEvent(name, true, true);
return event;
}
function fireEvent(element, name) {
var event = createEvent(name);
element.dispatchEvent(event);
}
and the console is clean:
