在日期选择器中显示特定日期

Question

I'm using pickmeup datePicker in my Angular project, and it works good and stable but I faced a problem. When I'm trying to set a particular date, picker breaks and/or disappears. I used the method set_date from the documentation but I think I'm missing something.

I use the following code

showDate(timestamp: number) {
  const timeString = timestamp.toString();
  this.pickerInstance.set_date(new Date(timeString));
}

I have a stackblitz code template here .

So the idea is, I want to have a button when I'm pressing on it, it passes timestamp value to showDate function and after that datePicker shows my date.

I don't want to use jquery here, I believe this could be done without it. But maybe I'm wrong.

Any ideas, comments, help is welcome? thank you.

1. The constructor of Date needs a number not aa string.
2. You need to call this.pickerInstance.update() after the update

public showDate(timestamp: number) {
  this.pickerInstance.set_date(new Date(timestamp));
  this.pickerInstance.update();
}
