PrimeNG also provides a DatePicker component, live demo;

As answered by @thierry yes there is option for us to use 

<input type="date" [(ngModel)]="company.birthdate"/>

for getting date for our project. but yes this is not compatible for the multi browser plateform (like mozila) and there are many cross browser library for the same.

I have made two stylish calendar Datepickers using Bootflat theme which is responsive too refer here

hope this gives you more stylish and multi browser datepicker.

Not sure if it helps but we wanted to develop a custom datepicker for our project and we couldn't find a lot of Angular2 Datepicker's at that point and hence ended up writing a simple one myself.

Its a simple one which selects the date and you can also specify dates that you want to disable before and after. It uses event emitter and sets the selected date in a text field. It is published in npm and I am working on improving it as well.

Hope it helps.

Angular 2 (Typescript)

can also do this with blur event.

look closely at (blur)="newProjectModel.eEDate = eEDatePicker.value" on blur event it assigns input temporary variable #eEDatePicker value to our model variable newProjectModel.eEDate

<form (ngSubmit)="onSubmit()" #newProjectForm="ngForm" >
  <div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm-4">
      <div class="form-group">
        <label for="end-date">Expected Finish Date</label>
        <div class='input-group date datetimepicker'>
          <input type='text' class="form-control" required [(ngModel)]="newProjectModel.eEDate" name="eEDate" #eEDate="ngModel" #eEDatePicker (blur)="newProjectModel.eEDate = eEDatePicker.value" />
          <span class="input-group-addon">
            <span class="fa fa-calendar"></span>
          </span>
        </div>
        <div [hidden]="eEDate.valid || eEDate.pristine" class="alert alert-danger">
          Expected Finish Date is required
        </div>
      </div>
    </div>
  </div>
  <div class="modal-footer" [hidden]="submitted">
    <button [hidden]="submitted" type="button" class="btn btn-red" data-dismiss="modal" >Cancel</button>
    <button [hidden]="submitted" type="submit" class="btn btn-green" [disabled]="!newProjectForm.form.valid">Save</button>
  </div>
  <div class="modal-footer" [hidden]="!submitted">
    <button [hidden]="!submitted" focus class="btn btn-green" data-dismiss="modal"  (click)="submitted=false">Ok</button>
  </div>
</form>

I'am using these bootstrap libraries:

bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.css

bootstrap-datetimepicker.min.js

consider using angular-datepicker, it's a highly configurable date picker built for Angular applications.

This is my solution:

HTML

<input id="send_date"
       type="text"
       [(ngModel)]="this.dataModel.send_date"
       name="send_date"
       #send_date="ngModel"
       class="date-picker"
       data-date-format="dd-mm-yyyy">

.TS

//My data model has "send_date" property
dataModel: MyDataModel;

ngAfterViewInit() {

    //important point: You have to create a reference to this outer scope
    var that = this;

    $('#send_date').datepicker({
        //... your datepicker attributes
    }).change(function () {
        that.dataModel.send_date = $('#send_date').val();
    });

}

I just found mydatepicker package today just type in npm install mydatepicker --save and follow the instructions here if you don't like their naming style, just create a wrapper component around it that works with Date type

I am not sure if its gonna work on older versions of angular because i made it in Angular 13.1.0 version but you can give it a shot its very simple to use.

npm i @handylib/ngx-datepicker

then import NgxDatepickerModule to your module

there are 5 directives which you can use according to your needs

  1. datetimepicker for date nad time
  2. datepicker for date only
  3. timepicker for time only
  4. monthpicker for month only
  5. yearpicker for year only

USAGE

<input type="text" datetimepicker placeholder="Please select date and time">

To use custom format

<input type="text" datetimepicker [format]="'DD MMMM, YYYY hh:m A'" placeholder="Please select date and time">

i am still updating its documents but i think for angular 13+ its very simple to impliment as i have already used it on whole lot of projects.

See Stackoverflow question, ng2-boostrap datePicker seems to overwrite ngModel, while the question is different, the answers given to it solved the issue you described for me.

Assuming using typescript, you need to add this to the html markup:

<datepicker [(ngModel)]="dateValue" [showWeeks]="false"</datepicker>

and in the component ts file, you will need to import

import {DATEPICKER_DIRECTIVES} from 'ng2-bootstrap/ng2-bootstrap';

and add the DATEPICKER_DIRECTIVES to your providers list.

[Edit: This applies to an older version of Angular 2. There are much better choices in current versions]
