I am using Angular and material datepicker with Reactive Forms and moment MomentDateModule
.
How can I get the value from the form that is typed by the keyboard?
Here is a small example.
If I am typing the correct date, then valueChanges is emitted with correct moment object and everything is ok. With invalid date there is null
in this.date.value
control
Is there a way to store current input value in Form Control with Reactive Forms? I also tried to add
(input)="onInput($event)"
to datepicker <input />
onInput(event) {
this.date.setValue(moment(event.target.value))
}
But it didn't work. Because datepicker converts invalid moment objects to empty strings for the input value
