Angular Material Datepicker: Change event not firing when selecting date

Angular Material Datepicker: Change event not firing when selecting date

In Angular Material Datepicker, the (dateChange) event is triggered when the user selects a new date. If this event is not firing, there could be a few reasons for it. Here are some things to check:

  1. Correct Event Binding: Make sure that you are using the correct event binding syntax in your template. The correct syntax for the (dateChange) event is:

    <mat-datepicker (dateChange)="yourMethod($event)"></mat-datepicker> 

    Ensure that you have the correct syntax and that the event name is spelled correctly.

  2. Check for Typos: Double-check for any typos in the event binding, method name, or any related code. Angular is case-sensitive, so make sure everything is spelled correctly.

  3. Check Angular Version: Ensure that you are using a version of Angular Material that is compatible with your Angular version. Check the compatibility matrix in the Angular Material documentation.

  4. Verify Component Method: Check if the method yourMethod is implemented correctly in your component. Make sure it's defined and that it's not preventing the event from being handled.

    yourMethod(event: MatDatepickerInputEvent<Date>): void { console.log('Date selected:', event.value); // Your additional logic here } 
  5. Use (input) Event: If the (dateChange) event is still not firing, you can try using the (input) event, which is fired when the user types or selects a date. It can be an alternative to (dateChange).

    <mat-datepicker (input)="yourMethod($event)"></mat-datepicker> 

    Adjust your method accordingly to handle the (input) event.

  6. Check for Customizations: If you have customized the datepicker or are using any third-party libraries that might interfere, try simplifying your code to isolate the issue.
