Decouple directive input value from model

[Sébastien Saunier]

Hello guys,

I am trying to wrap the fondation-bootstrap datepicker into a directive and I have some trouble watching for an update in my controller. I get two notifications, one with a Date object, and one with the string value of the input (which I don't want).

I asked my question on SO: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/21660774/creating-a-directive-for-a-datepicker-watching-model-triggers-two-updates

Any help much appreciated!

Thanks.

HI Sébastien,

I think you need a parser/formatter for this. If you build a plunk/fiddle, more of us are willing to take a look at it.

Hello Sander,

Thanks for the hint, I will investigate both and come at you with some code to play with.

In my experience you can avoid trouble by encapsulating the input tag, rather than re-using it, so you might try

<div fdatepicker>

and then let the directive's template add the input inside the div.
That way your directive's ngModel is separate from the input's ngModel.
