I want to disable specific dates in the date picker of AngularJS.

I am using AngularJS-bootstrap css for components(angular directives).(ui.bootstrap.datepicker)

i was using the following code:

datePicker.html: 

          <title>Typehead</title>
          <meta charset="UTF-8">
          <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
          <link rel="stylesheet" href="http://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/bootstrap/3.3.6/css/bootstrap.min.css" />
              <script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.5.0/angular.js"></script>
            <script src="//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/angularjs/1.5.0/angular-animate.js"></script>
            <script src="./ui-bootstrap-tpls-1.2.1.min.js"></script>
          <script src="./datePicker.js"></script>






        </head>

          }
          .partially button span {
            background-color: orange;
            border-radius: 32px;
            color: black;

                return '';
              }



             });

the documentation gives me : dateDisabled (date, mode) - An optional expression to disable visible options based on passing a date and current mode.

i tried long and hard to use it but wasted 5 hours on it. im sure the solution is simple.Can anyone help with the following:

1.How do i use it to disable a single date 2.Disable multiple dates passed from an array!

any help with working example would be appreciated!

Link the date-disabled attribute to a function that takes two arguments in your scope like this:

<input type="text" class="form-control"  uib-datepicker-popup="{{format}}" date-disabled="disabled(date, mode)" /> <!-- Other attributes deleted for clarity -->

That function will be called for all the visible dates on the calendar. So, you will need to check the date passed against the dates you want to be disabled. For example, the function bellow will disable the dates: March 14, 2016, March 15, 2016 and March 16, 2016

$scope.disabled = function(date, mode){

            var holidays = [
              new Date(2016,2,14),
              new Date(2016,2,15),
              new Date(2016,2,16),
            ]

            var isHoliday = false;
            for(var i = 0; i < holidays.length ; i++) {
              if(areDatesEqual(holidays[i], date)){
                isHoliday = true;
              }
            }

            return ( mode === 'day' && isHoliday );
          };

          function areDatesEqual(date1, date2) {

            return date1.setHours(0,0,0,0) === date2.setHours(0,0,0,0)

          }

UPDATE:

To change the class of a specific date you use the custom-class attribute:

<input type="text" class="form-control"  uib-datepicker-popup="{{format}}" date-disabled="disabled(date, mode)" custom-class="dayClass(date, mode)"/>

The dayClass function will be called for all the visible dates and return the css class you want to add to that element. For example, the function below will add the class appointment to the dates on the appointments array

$scope.dayClass = function(date, mode) {

            var appointments = [
              new Date(2016,2,3),
              new Date(2016,2,8),
              new Date(2016,2,22),
            ]

            if (mode === 'day') {

              var dateToCheck = new Date(date);

              for(var i = 0; i < appointments.length ; i++) {
                if(areDatesEqual(appointments[i], dateToCheck)){
                  return 'appointment';
                }
              }
            }
            return '';
          }

Then you need to add some style, something like this:

.appointment>button {
  color: white;
  background-color: red;
}

UPDATE 2

To perform an action for specific dates you could use ng-change and follow the same approach as before, it could be something like this:

<input type="text" class="form-control" uib-datepicker-popup="{{format}}" ng-model="dt" ng-change="dateSelected()" /> <!-- Other attributes deleted for clarity -->

On your controller:

$scope.dateSelected = function(){

var appointments = [
  new Date(2016,2,3),
  new Date(2016,2,8),
  new Date(2016,2,22),
];

var dateSelected = new Date($scope.dt);

for(var i = 0; i < appointments.length ; i++) {
  if(areDatesEqual(appointments[i], dateSelected)){
    performAction();
  }
}

};

function performAction(){
  alert("Appointment date selected");
}

Here a full example:

var myApp= angular.module('ui.bootstrap.demo', ['ngAnimate', 'ui.bootstrap', 'ui.bootstrap.dateparser', 'ui.bootstrap.datepicker']);



             myApp.controller('DatepickerDemoCtrl', function($scope, $http) {



            $scope.today = function() {
                $scope.dt = new Date();
              };
              $scope.today();

              $scope.clear = function() {
                $scope.dt = null;
              };

              $scope.inlineOptions = {
                minDate: new Date(),
                showWeeks: false
              };

              $scope.dateOptions = {
                  formatYear: 'yy',
                  maxDate: new Date(2020, 5, 22),
                  minDate: new Date(),
                  startingDay: 1
                };

                // Disable weekend selection
                function disabledasda(data) {
                  var date = data.date,
                    mode = data.mode;
                  return mode === 'day' && (date.getDay() === 0 || date.getDay() === 6);
                }

              $scope.toggleMin = function() {
                $scope.inlineOptions.minDate = $scope.inlineOptions.minDate ? null : new Date();
                $scope.dateOptions.minDate = $scope.inlineOptions.minDate;
              };

              $scope.toggleMin();

              $scope.open1 = function() {
                $scope.popup1.opened = true;

              ]
              $scope.disabled = function(date, mode){

                for(var i = 0; i < $scope.holidays.length ; i++) {

thanks sergio Marron! this seems to work! i had searched far and wide on stack overflow for something to start with and had got stuck. But now ive found the solution in ur code.thanks a lot!
By any chance do you/anyone know to colour specific dates with the choice of my colour?
Sergio Marron, the code does'nt seem to work in my xampp server! but works on plunker! i dunno how is that so!
@ClydeDias I updated the answer and included how to add some style. About your server, there must be an issue when comparing the dates, maybe the timezone of your server, but I couldn't say.
yes done! the problem was with the loading of ui-bootstrap-tpls! i linked it now with: <script src="cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/angular-ui-bootstrap/1.1.2/…; .it wokrs fine now! thank you Sergio Marron! thanks a lot!
