AngularJS / Angular -ui-bootstrap Change the language used by datePicker

Question

I am using datePicker documentation here .

However, no direct option allows you to change the default language to English .

I find documentation on widgets provided without the angular directive, and it provides a good way to achieve it:

http://bootstrap-datepicker.readthedocs.org/en/latest/i18n.html

Is there a simple way of not allowing you to change the source code of a directive to change it?

Answer 1

If you use the DatePicker angular -ui form, simply add the localized js file to your page title. An example is:

<script src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.0.8/angular.js"></script> <script src="http://code.angularjs.org/1.0.8/i18n/angular-locale_fr-fr.js"></script> <script src="http://angular-ui.imtqy.com/bootstrap/ui-bootstrap-tpls-0.6.0.js"></script> 

You can see the working plank here

Answer 2

First you have to load your locales ( get them here ) script after angular in index.html:

  <script src="angular.js"></script> <script src="angular-locale_de-de.js"></script> 

After that, the days and months are localized, but you need to translate the buttons yourself by adding parameters inside the date input tag:

 <input type="text" class="form-control" datepicker-popup="dd.MM.yyyy" ng-model="dt" is-open="opened" min-date="minDate" max-date="'2042-04-02'" datepicker-options="dateOptions" date-disabled="disabled(date, mode)" ng-required="true" current-text="Tonight" clear-text="Reset" close-text="Exit" /> 

Answer 3

You can find the latest locale js file with this link.

In addition, if you want to translate the datepicker action buttons (for example, "Close") globaly, you can add this code for the global configuration.

 //DatePicker -> uibDatepickerConfig //DatePickerPopup -> uibDatepickerPopupConfig app.config(['uibDatepickerPopupConfig', function(uibDatepickerPopupConfig) { uibDatepickerPopupConfig.closeText = 'Close'; uibDatepickerPopupConfig.currentText = 'Today'; uibDatepickerPopupConfig.clearText = 'Clear'; }]);
