Datepicker with Json datetime

[E_lexy]

I have a datepicker that does not play nice with my backend.

My backend (http://jmsyst.com/bundles/JMSSerializerBundle) serializes php DateTime objects like this:

"1923-10-07T22:00:00+0000"

This gets interpreted by Angular just fine.

When I implement the datepicker the date is not seen in the picker and what is sent back changes to this format:

"1931-09-07T22:00:00.000Z"

Which my server doesn't understand.

What is the right way to do this?

Could you elaborate, perhaps with a sample of the code you are using?

What do you mean by Angular interprets the first date string?  What exactly is interpreting it?

What do you mean by the date is not seen in the picker?  Are you setting the ng-model value to something you received from the server?  Is the value a string or a Date object?

What do you mean by "sent back" sent back from where?

Maybe I'm missing sth here but I believe that your issue has nothing
to do with angular.js but it is simply a matter of JavaScript date
objects serialization to a format that your backend can interpret
correctly (whatever 'correctly' means here but I assume that it means
converting strings to Date objects on your backend side).

Just changed your fiddle a but to illustrate that the date picker
correctly binds a JS Date object back to the model:

Provided that in angular we've got valid JavaScript Date objects
you've got basically 2 options:
1) Convert JS dates to the string form that your backend can understand.
2) Make your backend understand the current serialization format.

It is a bit hard to say more without knowing how data are sent from a
browser and de-serialized on the backend side but I hope that my input
will point you in the right direction.

Cheers,
Pawel

Your datetime is converted to ISO8601 format. "1931-09-07T22:00:00.000Z" is a datetime in UTC time zone. In .net to deserialize it correctly use datetimeoffset
